Subject: [ruby-core:69704] [Ruby trunk - Bug #11294] [Open] Possible bug in Object.const_get
Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2015 21:23:45 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <redmine.issue-11294.20150622212345.9a76fc382ed81770@ruby-lang.org> (raw)

Issue #11294 has been reported by Andrew Kozin.
----------------------------------------
Bug #11294: Possible bug in Object.const_get
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11294
* Author: Andrew Kozin
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee:
* ruby -v: 2.2
* Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN, 2.2: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
~~~
module Foo; end
module Foo::Baz; end
module Bar; end
module Bar::Qux; end
Object.const_get "Foo::Baz::Bar::Qux"
# => Bar::Qux
~~~
Why on earth it is found at all?
It seems pretty weird to me.
The real problem arises later, when I add `Foo::Bar::Qux`:
~~~
module Foo::Bar; end
module Foo::Bar::Qux; end
~~~
then the tree becomes as following:
~~~
Foo::Bar::Qux
Foo::Baz
Bar::Qux
~~~
But the result remains the same:
~~~
Object.const_get "Foo::Baz::Bar::Qux"
# => Bar::Qux
~~~
Here I'd expect searching "Foo::Baz::Bar::Qux" to
* either return nothing (this is less astonished, because there is no such constant),
* or find the closest `Bar::Qux` to `Foo::Bar`, that is `Foo::Bar::Qux`, not the `Bar::Qux`
I cannot even understand the logic that follows the `Object.const_get` in providing such a result.
