OK, let's make it raise exceptions for zero length. Matz. ---------------------------------------- Bug #18767: IO.foreach hangs up when passes limit=0 https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18767#change-98905 * Author: andrykonchin (Andrew Konchin) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: 3.0.3 * Backport: 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- `IO.foreach` behaves in an unexpected way in a corner case when passes 0 as a limit parameter. It never stops and hangs up. ```ruby IO.foreach('file.txt', 0) { |s| p s } "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ``` Expected behavior - to raise ArgumentError "invalid limit: 0" like it does the `IO.readlines` method. I observe this behavior on 2.6, 2.7, and 3.0. Didn't check on 3.1 and master though. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
