Backport #8884

closed

`caller(1, nil)` raises a runtime error while its reference says its signature as `caller(start=1, length=nil)`

Added by gfx (Goro FUJI) about 11 years ago. Updated about 11 years ago.


Description

$ ruby -e 'caller(1, nil)'
-e:1:in caller': no implicit conversion from nil to integer (TypeError) from -e:1:in '

Either the behaviour or the document looks wrong; I don't know which is wrong, though.

  • vm_backtrace.c (vm_backtrace_to_ary): Ignore the second argument if
    it is nil. [Bug #8884] [ruby-core:57094]

  • test/ruby/test_backtrace.rb (test_caller_with_nil_length):

  • Backport changed from 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN to 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: REQUIRED

documentation on 2.0.0 is same, so flagging as backport onto 2.0.0 needed.
