[ruby-core:44530] [ruby-trunk - Bug #6340][Open] Redefine Net::HTTPResponse#to_ary to avoid implicit conversion errors

----------------------------------------
Bug #6340: Redefine Net::HTTPResponse#to_ary to avoid implicit conversion errors
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6340

Author: lshevtsov (Leonid Shevtsov)
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: 
Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.3p125 (2012-02-16 revision 34643) [x86_64-darwin11.3.0]


I've hit a nasty and subtle bug in code using the deprecated Net::HTTPResponse to_ary conversion: https://github.com/joshfrench/rakismet/pull/17

Up to Ruby 1.9.2 the method generated a warning, but in 1.9.3 it's removed completely.

The problem is, array conversion still happened implicitly and without warnings, but the second variable (which should have been assigned with the response's body) did not get assigned at all.

I suggest redefining the method with an explicit exception to make this mistake less subtle.
