Here are the results of `const_defined?` for each ruby version on my machine. ``` % ruby -e "module A; end; B = 1; p Object.const_defined?('A::B')" [1.9.3-p551, 2.0.0-p648] -e:1:in `const_defined?': wrong constant name A::B (NameError) from -e:1:in `
' [2.1.10, 2.2.10, 2.3.8, 2.4.6, 2.5.5, 2.6.0] false [2.6.1, 2.6.2, 2.6.3] true [2.7.0-dev (2019-05-25 trunk 559dca509d)] false ``` For (2.6.1...2.6.3), it fails to reference the constant even though `const_defined?` returns true. So IMO this should be `const_defined?`'s bug. ``` % ruby -e "module A; end; B = 1; p Object.const_defined?('A::B') && A::B" -e:1:in `
': uninitialized constant A::B (NameError) ``` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
