Subject: [ruby-core:57980] [ruby-trunk - Bug #9038] instance_eval throws	RuntimeError for bad syntax (regression from 2.0.0)


Issue #9038 has been updated by nagachika (Tomoyuki Chikanaga).

Backport changed from 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN to 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: REQUIRED

Even though this issue is not reproducible with 2.0.0, the same flaw exists on ruby_2_0_0. I'll backport r43376 to fix a potential bug.

Bug #9038: instance_eval throws RuntimeError for bad syntax (regression from 2.0.0)

ruby -v: ruby 2.1.0dev (2013-10-20 trunk 43373) [x86_64-linux]
Backport: 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: REQUIRED


=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).
