[ruby-core:63731] [ruby-trunk - Bug #10035] Find.find no longer accepts Pathname type as argument

Issue #10035 has been updated by Robert A. Heiler.


I don't think I can agree with you in regards to Pathname being a more suitable type - because I rarely use Pathname myself, with just about the single exception being code like this here:

  Pathname(__FILE__).dirname.realpath.to_s

However, if this has been possible in the past then of course it should be preserved for the future as well.

Do you recall in which ruby version it was possible? I would like to test it myself as well (for curiousity reasons mostly).

Bug #10035: Find.find no longer accepts Pathname type as argument

----------------------------------------
In 2.1, a check for encoding of the paths parameter has been added to File.find. This works perfectly well for String parameters, but this results in a NoMethodError when a Pathname parameter is given. In my opinion a Pathname is a better suitable type to feed to Find.find than a String.
