From: Run Paint Run Run Date: 2009-06-25T14:54:01+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:24027] [Bug #1687] ARGF.lineno Always Returns 0 for ARGF.chars and ARGF.bytes Issue #1687 has been updated by Run Paint Run Run. Nobu, thanks for looking. Using the .lines iterator, ARGF.lineno returns the correct line number: $ cat argf.rb ARGF.lines { |l| p ARGF.lineno } $ echo -e "foo\nbar\nglark" >file $ ruby argf.rb file 1 2 3 Using the .chars iterator, it always returns 0: $ cat argf.rb ARGF.chars { |c| p ARGF.lineno } $ ruby argf.rb file 0 0 ... 0 0 Using .bytes has the same result: $ cat argf.rb ARGF.bytes { |b| p ARGF.lineno } $ ruby argf.rb file 0 0 ... 0 0 On 1.8, the last two examples always print 1. Am I missing something obvious here? :-) ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/1687 ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
