Bug #16889
Updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze) over 4 years ago
```ruby
threads = []
inspects = []
trace = TracePoint.new(:line) do |tp|
threads << Thread.current
inspects << tp.inspect
end
done = false
thread = Thread.new do
Thread.pass until done
end
trace.enable do
line_event = true
done = true
sleep 1
end
thread.join
# Expected only within enable block (lines 14-16)
puts inspects
# Expected just 1
p threads.uniq
```
Results in:
```
$ ruby tpbug.rb
ruby tpbug.rb
#<TracePoint:line@tpbug.rb:14>
#<TracePoint:line@tpbug.rb:15>
#<TracePoint:line@tpbug.rb:16>
#<TracePoint:line@tpbug.rb:10>
[#<Thread:0x00005571134e3340 run>, #<Thread:0x00005571138ac828@tpbug.rb:9 dead>]
```
But I expected:
```
#<TracePoint:line@tpbug.rb:14>
#<TracePoint:line@tpbug.rb:15>
#<TracePoint:line@tpbug.rb:16>
[#<Thread:0x00005571134e3340 run>]
```
Because the RDoc says:
```
If a block is given, the trace will only be enabled within the scope of
the block.
```
For background I'm trying to improve the TracePoint specs in ruby/spec, but they are proving quite unreliable due to this.
