Where did you read about that function? That source is very outdated: readall(io)
was replaced by readstring(io)
in Julia 0.5, and then readstring(io)
was replaced by read(io, String)
in Julia 0.7.
If you are using Julia 1.X you should use read(io, String)
.
Thank you, that explains why it has been driving me nuts. (I am on day 2 of testing Julia, so I naturally assume that if something is not working, it must be me doing something worng)
It was here: readall(filename::AbstractString) » Julia Functions, hit by Google.
Only after you mentioned it, did I notice that I’d hit a page that is not official documentation.
I will delete this post after a while so as to avoding further infesting google with hits to this deprecated function, and I will also try to add a comment on the page at jhub.com
