[ruby-core:24641] [Bug #1844] Immediates Should Not Respond to :dup

From: Lin Jen-Shin <redmine@...>
Date: 2009-07-31 08:07:39 UTC
List: ruby-core #24641
Issue #1844 has been updated by Lin Jen-Shin.


There's try_dup in extlib [0], which returns self in various class,
i.e. NilClass, Symbol, TrueClass, FalseClass, Numeric, and Module.
I am not sure, but I think this is used to prevent from side-effect.

I am wondering, if what we want is not duplicate something,
but ensure there's no side-effect, why not use another method?
For example, dup_or_freeze [1] or so...

My two cents.

[0] http://github.com/datamapper/extlib/
[1] I know that immediates aree not frozen in the beginning.
