CGI cookie needs CGI/core to run...

open "lib/ruby/2.0.0/cgi.rb" and see that cgi/cookie is loaded after cgi/core

I think it's not an error, 'cgi/cookie' depends on 'cgi/core'.

[nelsnelson (Nels Nelson)]

No. I tried that, and the same error occurs, despite including the

require 'cgi/core'

line before the "require 'cgi/cookie'" line.

Please test and confirm your suggestions and include source code when suggesting contrarian points of view. Thank you for your assistance!

• Tracker changed from Backport to Bug
• Project changed from Backport200 to Ruby master

The project "Backport 200" is for backport tickets.
I'll move this ticket to "ruby-trunk".

Thanks.

[devans (Daniel Evans)]

A work around is to require 'cgi/util' which is where CGI::unescape is defined and causes the test script provided to work perfectly.
