JRuby method dispatch problem under rspec

Hello guys,

I’ve got a completely unexpected behaviour in my specs, if a protected
method is called under any controller spec, JRuby throws an error like
this one:

NameError in ‘SampleController on index calls Should call the
protected method `protected_method’ called for
#SampleController:0x238067

But under MRI it just works

Here’s the controller:

class SampleController < ApplicationController

def index
protected_method
end

protected

def protected_method
@protected = ‘This is the protected string’
end

end

And here’s the spec:

require File.dirname(FILE) + ‘/…/spec_helper’

describe SampleController do

describe ‘on index calls’ do

def do_get
  get :index
end

it 'Should call the protected method' do
  controller.should_receive :protected_method
  do_get
end

it 'Should assign the @protected variable' do
  do_get
  assigns[:protected].should_not be_blank
end

end

end

Any ideas about what’s happening ()
