Hello,
Is there a built-in way to achieve what C# ‘using’ does, with IronRuby ?
Although it’s pretty easy to roll your own (
My Other Pants » Disposable Code), I’d like to use the
built-in way if there’s one.
thanks!

you don’t need to provide the true anymore. It was a bug a year ago and
I
still have to update that

it’s not a rubyism as such, so I don’t think it actually belongs in the
core. But opinions may vary

Thanks Ivan,
I like your version 
Will something similar be added directly into IronRuby Kernel ?

agreed - it’s an ironrubyism
I think we can add it straight to the FAQ, to the very least!

I’m definitely against adding such a feature to the core (as Ivan
said, it doesn’t belong to ruby), but…
require ‘ironrubysm’ # just to reuse your term, but it could be
something along these lines 
Maybe we can have a separate gem that groups a bunch of typical .NET
patterns in a more rubyish way. Thoughts?

I think it’s a nice idea; it would be a bit like Facets (
http://facets.rubyforge.org/), small bits that you can enable if you
wish.

I also think it’s a nice idea. I have a few other such methods
(Array#to_clr_a, Time#to_clr_time, and the godawful Array#to_2d_a) that
seem
like they’d also be a good fit
