Subject: [ruby-core:44955] [ruby-trunk - Bug #6415][Open] wrong documentation for Regex#==/eql?


Issue #6415 has been reported by john_firebaugh (John Firebaugh).

----------------------------------------
Bug #6415: wrong documentation for Regex#==/eql?
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6415

Author: john_firebaugh (John Firebaugh)
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: DOC
Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.3p194 (2012-04-20 revision 35410) [x86_64-darwin11.3.0]


The documentation states that "Two regexps are equal if their patterns are identical, they have the same character set code, and their casefold? values are the same" and gives the following example:

    /abc/  == /abc/n   #=> false

In fact, this returns true -- the /n character set code option is a special case.
