Bug #9038: instance_eval throws RuntimeError for bad syntax (regression from 2.0.0)
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9038

Author: indirect (Andr辿 Arko)
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: 
Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 2.1.0dev (2013-10-20 trunk 43373) [x86_64-linux]
Backport: 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN


=begin
In Ruby 2.1.0dev (2013-10-20 trunk 43373), (({instance_eval})) throws a (({RuntimeError})) when it should throw a (({SyntaxError})), but only the first time it is called. If you use an IRB session to call (({instance_eval})) a second time with the exact same arguments, it produces the expected (({SyntaxError})) instead of .

Here is an example: (({ruby -e "instance_eval('/unquoted/string/syntax/error')"}))

That example raises a (({SyntaxError})) on Ruby 2.0.0p247, but raises a (({RuntimeError})) on 2.1.0dev (2013-10-20 trunk 43373).
