Umask is a mask on file creation. By itself it does nothing more than what I've implemented (that I can tell), but File.open (and other file creation methods) should look at it to derive the default permissions. The attached script shows the basic idea, and here's it's output:
[9] > ruby .\temp.rb Umask is 0 100644 Umask is 200 100444 Umask is 400 100644 Umask is 600 100444 If you run it, it will create 4 files (for the 4 tested modes) so you can see the permissions applied. I looked into adding this support to File.open, but I'm not certain where to begin (I found public RuleGenerator Open(), which I don't know enough about yet).

Tomas From: Jim Deville Sent: Tuesday, April 21, 2009 8:12 PM To: ironruby-core@rubyforge.org; IronRuby External Code Reviewers Subject: Code Review: Update RubySpec I'm updating RubySpec to the newest revision from Git. Most of this is boring stuff; just updating files and rebuilding tags. However, a couple of these commits are code changes to help the specs run smoother. JD * add ci_files to default.mspec so mspec ci works<http://github.com/jredville/ironruby/commit/2ef5e803b6089a3b7b6513de8eb44555f8a8537a> * add a filtered function to mspec to simplify default.mspec<http://github.com/jredville/ironruby/commit/eb9d2047ecee954205fb1d8cd80df7ffaeb4bac2> *** * categorizing uncategorized specs<http://github.com/jredville/ironruby/commit/0845a3e803688372d9f1959633ad7840f82f7657> *** * removing extra spec files<http://github.com/jredville/ironruby/commit/d973948111456d387e91243e4d8399483fb29fc6> * update rubyspec and mspec<http://github.com/jredville/ironruby/commit/75122c3ade440e28d933c658a95b43acd26e5f9e> * add a file with the git sha1 hashes of current mspec and rubyspec<http://github.com/jredville/ironruby/commit/588dcbfa225156c19c61d882f82e515c5b8f0e73> * implement File.umask in order to run the specs<http://github.com/jredville/ironruby/commit/61ce27f27a510c512095aa3b5ab8329229dce7ef> *** * Implement Process.waitall (needed by Process specs)<http://github.com/jredville/ironruby/commit/f1f148f773111c561e1eea515681799a7559437e> *** * rebuilt ironruby tags<http://github.com/jredville/ironruby/commit/d176ec1d4e6d546420e6645554b75c3f94d8e475> The commits marked with *** are more than just infrastructure work. These are actual code changes that need review. Thanks JD
