From: "tenderlovemaking (Aaron Patterson)" Date: 2012-10-26T07:20:13+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:48291] [ruby-trunk - Bug #7097] Thread locals don't work inside Enumerator Issue #7097 has been updated by tenderlovemaking (Aaron Patterson). File thread_variables.patch added I spoke with ko1-san and Usa-san last night, and we thought that thread_variable_(get|set) would be good (similar to instance_variable_(get|set)). I've attached an updated patch to make that change. The documentation includes examples of how the thread local storage and fiber local storage are different. I added two more methods: * Thread#thread_variables # => returns a list of the defined variable keys * Thread#thread_variable? # => returns true if a key is set, otherwise false Thread#local_variable_(get|set) methods respect the same security and frozen behavior as Thread#[] and Thread#[]=. I think matz said it's OK to add this. @akr, and @ko1 how is this patch? If it's OK, I would like to apply to trunk. Thanks! :-) ---------------------------------------- Bug #7097: Thread locals don't work inside Enumerator https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/7097#change-31586 Author: tenderlovemaking (Aaron Patterson) Status: Assigned Priority: Normal Assignee: ko1 (Koichi Sasada) Category: Target version: ruby -v: ruby 2.0.0dev (2012-09-25 trunk 37032) [x86_64-darwin12.2.0] I set a thread local outside an Enumerator. The Enumerator runs inside the same thread where I set the local. I would expect the thread local to be available since I am in the same thread, but it is not. Here is a test that shows the problem: require 'minitest/autorun' class ThreadLocalBreaks < MiniTest::Unit::TestCase def test_thread_local_in_enumerator Thread.current[:foo] = "bar" thread, value = Enumerator.new { |y| y << [Thread.current, Thread.current[:foo]] }.next assert_equal Thread.current, thread # passes assert_equal Thread.current[:foo], value # fails end end -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
