From: Hugh Sasse Date: 2010-01-25T23:28:53+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:27807] [Bug #2647] Lack of testing for String#split Issue #2647 has been updated by Hugh Sasse. OK, can someone please document the proper procedure for this, then? At present http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/community/ruby-core/#patching-ruby says we can send patches to the list, or put them in redmine, but I'm getting the impression some people say they get lost unless they are in redmine. Posting them to redmine means the attached patch doesn't show up as an attachement on the list. Redmine refers to RubySpec, and you're telling me that I should put tests into there. But the Documentation for Ruby is based on Rdoc, and my patch agrees with that. Yet, as my recent post about Zlib::GzipReader points out, we also have docs that differ from the Rdoc in RD format, still being shipped out with Ruby. Can we have a process that is DRY, please? Vladimir Sizikov wrote: "If some of your tests provide better coverage in some cases, let me know" The link is there in the body of the redmine posting. If you are asking me to read up on RubySpec, please could you look at the 93 line patch? It is mostly asserts to try and avoid dependency on Array#each, an entirely different fundamental type. So as code goes it is light reading, if rather dull :-). ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/2647 ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
