RubyGems uses autoload

Added by trans (Thomas Sawyer) about 11 years ago. Updated over 10 years ago.

Status:
Rejected
Target version:
[ruby-core:51493]

Description

Using a custom require method, I ran into an issue with RubyGems b/c it is using autoload:

https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/blob/master/lib/rubygems.rb#L1062-L1074

Seeing that autoload is now discouraged from standard libs (http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-core/41149), when might we see it removed?

  • Status changed from Open to Assigned
  • Assignee set to drbrain (Eric Hodel)
  • Priority changed from Normal to 3
  • Target version changed from 2.6 to 3.0

I don't have any plans to remove autoload at this time.

Due to notes in #5653 it seems that autoload is fixed. In the interest of pushing towards a definitive answer from matz about autoload's future I am rejecting this issue.

Please restore it to assigned if matz decides autoload will be removed.
