Bug #11088
Updated by kaiserprogrammer (Jürgen Bickert) almost 9 years ago
I have Marshal.dump some objects and then I Marshal.load them and later I call non-existent methods on those objects and instead of raising an exception (NoMethodError) it runs off in an infinite loop.
I have tested with simple cases where the dumped structure is not recursive and it works fine. So I attached a non-working dump which will when called with inspect or a non-existing method run off in an infinite loop.
When you run "ruby bug_hunt.rb" it will get stuck and you have to abort(CTRL-C) and only then will it print an error message and finish.
