Ruby Forum Ruby-core > Ruby 1.9.0-1 snapshot released

Hi,

I just released released 1.9.0-1 at 
<ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/>.
MD5SUM are:

04b952ed2d14438497cefac3b9e2c0fc  ruby-1.9.0-1.tar.bz2

7457c4b5b26ac39d571df7ce12373823  ruby-1.9.0-1.zip

Note that it is a snapshot as of March 1st, to accelerate development.
We have fixed a lot of bugs since 1.9.0-0, but we know we still have
many untouched bugs.  Don't hesitate to report bugs we might forget.

The following is the brief summary of changes since 1.9.0-0:

* Oniguruma 5.9.1

  GB2312,UTF-7,BIG5,EUC-TW,GB18030,KOI8,KOI8-R,KOI8-U,Windows-1251 
support.
* use locale encoding for scripts from -e and stdin unless explicitly 
specified.
* DATA inherits script encoding.
* __ENCODING__ for current script encoding.
* encoding options Kernel#{putc,puts} invokes STDOUT.{putc,puts} 
respectively.
* don't use locale dependent strcasecmp.
* -Ks options means Windows-31J, not Shift_JIS.
* string methods work better on UTF-16 strings.
* empty string is compatible with any encoding string add
* string methods run faster for UTF-8.
* String#gsub(pat,hash) use US-ASCII (not ASCII-8BIT) for human readable 
text.
* allow empty symbol.
* rb_num_coerce_*() now require ID argument.
* Math.cbrt added.
* Math.{gamma,lgamma} added.
* more precise BigDecimal_to_f.
* "0x", "+" and "-" is not a valid integer.
* Proc#curry added.
* Time#strftime officially ignores locale.
* Time.<=> no longer supports comparison with numeric.
* Enumerable#zip behavior reverted to 1.8 one.  string
* ObjectSpace.each_obj returns an enumerator if no block given.
* Prime#each returns an enumerator if no block given.
* replace "illegal" to "invalid" in messages.
* Hash#flatten no longer work recursively.
* archdir is "1.9.0", not "1.9".
* added --disable-rubyopt flag.
* import RubyGems r1601.
* Benchmark#realtime a bit faster.
* check NUL in path operand for file operations.
* "make help" shows major targets.

For the next 1.9.0 snapshot, can we get a heads-up on the ruby-core
list?

I'm preparing for RubyGems 1.1, and finished up a bunch of bug fixes
on Wednesday.  I would have imported them into HEAD had I known a new
snapshot was coming out.

In the near future, we will prepare RedMine tracker for the core
development.  I hope this would improve the situation.

I'm just curious about what's the substantial difference between 1.9.0-1 
and
snapshot.tar.gz.  Summarizing of ChangeLog is a great work I think, but
I felt something wrong little with the number "...1," just incremented
integer, not "20080301."

If you have a plan to release snapshot monthly/weekly as versioned one,
I propose to version these shots as "1.9.0-200803" or "200803w1" to 
express

I couldn't get it to compile until I changed the revision number in
revision.h from r15560 to 15560.

I'm not seeing that -- it seems to still work recursively. I'm not
sure what's intended here, though. Doesn't the optional depth argument
take care of that?

I am awfully sorry.  I made a last minute bug in the packaging
script.  I have uploaded repacked archives.  Could you try again?
Here's new md5sum:

I mean

  {a: [:a,1], b: 2}.flatten

to give

  [:a, [:a, 1], :b, 2]

not

  [:a, :a, 1, :b, 2]

as it used to.

Why?

|Why?

Since 1.9.0 is not stable yet, binary API might change before 1.9.1.

Will it changed back when API become stable? It's not very suitable
for distribution packager to rebuild all modules on each new ruby 
version.

Yes, it will be 1.9 when 1.9.1 released.
