Bug #11126

closed

CSV field converters doesn't attempt to convert nil value.

Added by hanachin (Seiei Miyagi) almost 9 years ago. Updated over 6 years ago.

Status:
Closed
Target version:
-
ruby -v:
ruby 2.3.0dev (2015-05-05 trunk 50430) [x86_64-darwin14]
[ruby-core:69088]

Description

following code behaves differently between ruby 2.2.2/trunk and 2.1.5.

require 'csv'
converter = lambda { |field| field.nil? }
p CSV.parse_line('nil,', converters: converter)
$ ruby -v
ruby 2.1.5p273 (2014-11-13 revision 48405) [x86_64-darwin14.0]
$ ruby csv.rb
[false, true]
$ ruby -v
ruby 2.2.2p95 (2015-04-13 revision 50295) [x86_64-darwin14]
$ ruby csv.rb
[false, nil]

CSV header conversion changed at r45497 but it also affects field conversion.
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/575

I attached a patch to revert the field conversion behavior to >= 2.1.
