It's good to sort the result of `Dir["*"]`, but as jhawthorn pointed out the brace expansion _must_ keep the same order. I have code that depends on this, and I'm sure many others also have code that depend on this, since it's the behavior found in the shell: $ touch a2 a1 a0 b2 b1 b0 $ echo {a,b}? a0 a1 a2 b0 b1 b2 $ echo {b,a}? b0 b1 b2 a0 a1 a2 ---------------------------------------- Feature #8709: Dir.glob should return sorted file list https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8709#change-83929 * Author: tommorris (Tom Morris) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Target version: ---------------------------------------- On OS X, Dir.glob and Dir[] return an ordered list of files. On Ubuntu Linux, they do not and one must manually sort them. Returning a list of files that isn't in order fails the Principle of Least Astonishment. I attach a unit test to demonstrate ideal behaviour. ---Files-------------------------------- globtest.rb (454 Bytes) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
