Module documentation missing

Ruby
1

The documentation page for Module is missing from
RDoc Documentation.

Is this intended? Lots of method links are broken because of this.

This is an old error, that nobody seems to look into. Search for James
Britt’s posts on this on ruby-core.

I updated ruby-doc.org so that it used 1.8.6 for the api docs. After
running rdoc I saw that Module was again missing. With 1.8.5 I was able
to fix this by replacing a :stopdoc: in lib/yaml/tag.rb with
method-specific :nodoc: calls. 1.8.6 has the same directives as 1.8.5,
and I think that is the culprit

But when I tried this with 1.8.6 it didn’t seem to change anything.

Actually, that may not be true; I may have goofed in my re-doc’ing
script. I’m lokking at it now.

Module is back.

I re-applied my patch and re-gen’ed the rdoc for 1.8.6

That is now the API shown for

RDoc Documentation

For 1.8.5 docs, use

http://www.ruby-doc.org/core-1.8.5/

Thank you! Actually I recall when you did the modification sometime
ago… I’m sorry for misinformation.
