Issue #12847 has been updated by Nobuyoshi Nakada.

Status changed from Open to Rejected

It is the instance-level setting but terminates the whole process.

Bug #12847: Documentation of instance method Thread.abort_on_exception= is wrong

----------------------------------------
The documentation for the instance method says that the setting is global: https://ruby-doc.org/core-2.3.0/Thread.html#method-i-abort_on_exception-3D:

~~~
When set to true, all threads (including the main program) will abort if an exception is raised in this thr.
~~~

That's actually incorrect - the instance-level setting affects only the thread it was set on; it's not global.
