It's not only obsolete; quick squiz at the code reveals it does nothing:
def return_code
$stderr.puts("warning: Net::FTP#return_code is obsolete and do
nothing")
return "\n"
end
The short answer is, net/ftp will (probably) throw an exception if something
goes wrong. Try reading the code yourself, depending on what you do. I don't
have experience with it, but hopefully a guru here does.
(on my system [Ubuntu], I can find net/ftp's code at
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/ftp.rb)
Cheers,
Arlen.
