[ruby-core:30016] [Bug #3249] File#directory? does not document directory symlink special case

From: Ilkka Laukkanen <redmine@...>
Date: 2010-05-05 09:07:39 UTC
List: ruby-core #30016
Bug #3249: File#directory? does not document directory symlink special case
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/3249

Author: Ilkka Laukkanen
Status: Open, Priority: Normal
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.2dev (2010-04-23 trunk 27456) [x86_64-linux] 

If there exists in the filesystem a directory "bar", and a symlink "foo" that points at "bar", then

File.directory? 'foo' and File.symlink? 'foo' == true

This special case is not documented in File#directory?, where to docs merely say that it "Returns true if the named file is a directory, false otherwise". This is not correct since it will also return true if the file is a symlink, but points at a directory. The attached patch amends the documentation of File#directory? so that the special case is explicitly explained.
