Hello,
The following code produces a segfault with ruby-1.8.4 from gentoo,
as well as with ruby-1.8 from cvs and 1.9 from cvs. There appears to
be an issue when super is called in the subclass and the parent class
has method_missing defined. Strangely, if super is called with
explicit arguments, no segfault occurs. Likewise, if the method
definition in the subclass is modified slightly (see below) the
segfault is avoided.
Thanks,
Brad
class BaseClass
def method_missing(*args)
p args
end
end
class Article < BaseClass
if this is defined as title=(arg) the segfault does not occur
def title=(*args)
super(args) # works
super(*args) # works
super # segfault…
end
end
a = Article.new
a.body = ‘body’
a.title = ‘foo’
Hi,
This works for me. I’ve tried both:
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32] (Windows)
ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i386-linux] (gentoo linux)
Just a guess, but maybe you compiled ruby with to much optimizations in
CFLAGS ? Mine are
CFLAGS="-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer"
Hope this helps…
Guillaume

A bug was in super without any argument. The patch attached should
fix the bug. Thank you for reporting it.

It happens only on CVS top.
