Bug #632

closed

StringIO has an odd alias implementation [?]

Description

=begin
Here's my situation:

require 'stringio'
class C < StringIO
alias :old_init :initialize
def initialize
old_init
end
end
C.new # fails 1.9, succeeds 1.8.6

normal classes:

class A
def initialize
print 'A init'
end
end
class B < A
alias :old_init :initialize
def initialize
old_init
end
end
B.new # succeeds 1.9, 1.8

Thanks for your help! I know I'm annoying with this.

Updated by wanabe (_ wanabe) over 15 years ago

=begin
I guess the behavior is by this flow:

  • C#initialize
    -> C#old_init ( == StringIO#initialize )
    -> strio_initialize()
    -> rb_call_super()
    -> Object#old_init
    -> NoMethodError

1.8 avoids the problem because ruby_frame->orig_func can differ from ruby_frame->last_func,
so Object#old_init is not called but Object#initialize is.
