[ruby-core:122341] [Ruby Bug#21384] const_added is triggered twice when using autoload

Issue #21384 has been updated by fxn (Xavier Noria).


It is intended.

Reason is, `constants` includes the constant after a call to `autoload`.

As the title says, I've noticed that `const_added` is invoked twice when using `autoload`. I'm wondering if this behavior is intended or perhaps a bug. Here's a small script to reproduce what I'm seeing:


``` ruby
require "tmpdir"

dir = Dir.mktmpdir

File.write(
  File.join(dir, "const.rb"),
  "class Const; end"
)

def Object.const_added(const_name)
  super.tap { puts "const_added: #{const_name}" }
end

$LOAD_PATH << dir

puts "before autoload call"
autoload :Const, "const"
puts "after autoload call"
puts Const

# Produces output:
#
# => before autoload call
# => const_added: Const
# => after autoload call
# => const_added: Const
# => Const
```




I'm seeing the behavior using the following docker containers ruby:3.2 and ruby:3.5-rc when running like so: `docker run -v ./:/home ruby:3.5-rc ruby /home/script.rb`. Thanks.
