We waited enough long time. Let us remove it. Matz. ---------------------------------------- Feature #17136: Remove special behavior from $KCODE https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17136#change-87302 * Author: znz (Kazuhiro NISHIYAMA) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- `$SAFE` is now a normal global variable with no special behavior. I think `$KCODE` is no longer needed special behavior too. Warnings since 1.9. ``` % docker run -it --rm rubylang/all-ruby env ALL_RUBY_SINCE=ruby-1.4 ./all-ruby -e '$KCODE="e"; p $KCODE' ruby-1.4.0 "EUC" ... ruby-1.8.7-p374 "EUC" ruby-1.9.0-0 -e:1: warning: variable $KCODE is no longer effective; ignored -e:1: warning: variable $KCODE is no longer effective nil ... ruby-2.7.1 -e:1: warning: variable $KCODE is no longer effective; ignored -e:1: warning: variable $KCODE is no longer effective nil ``` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
