Why is Enumerable#each_with_object deprecated?

Question

According to APIdock, the Ruby method Enumerable#each_with_object is deprecated.

Unless it\'s mistaken (saying \"deprecated on the latest stable versio

Answer 1

Well, that seems a bit weird.

Even Agile Rails writes somewhere:

"The Ruby 1.9 each_with_object method was found to be so handy that the Rails crew backported it to Ruby 1.8 for you".

This seems like an error in APIdock ? I don't see any reason why it would be.
