GSoC - Week 2
And the second week of Google’s Summer of Code comes to an end.
Over the course of the last week, I’ve been working on Net::FTP specs (really, that’s no fun!) and on specs for the Set library.
Thanks to the new specs I’ve added for Set and SortedSet, some bugs have been exposed, for which I’ve submitted bugs to Ruby’s shiny new bugtracker, based on RedMine:
- Set#divide and SortedSet#divide raise NoMethodErrors when passed no block
- SortedSet#inspect does not work with nested SortedSets
- SortedSet#flatten_merge and SortedSet#flatten can’t actually flatten nested SortedSets
- SortedSet#each does not return self
- SortedSet#delete_if does not yield in sorted order
Also, the newest Ruby 1.8.6 version, 1.8.6-pl166, has some bugs, that got exposed by the rubyspecs :D
I also started fixing the rubyspecs to comply to Ruby 1.8.7, the “new” stable version of Ruby. It caused over 100 (!) spec failures, as it fixed a lot of bugs and changed behaviour in many places. There have also been backports from the Ruby 1.9 branch, (sadly) causing confusion throughout the whole Ruby Community.
Over the course of the next week, I’m planning to complete specs for Ruby’s StringIO library.
