From: "Glass_saga (Masaki Matsushita)" Date: 2012-10-12T14:04:08+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:47930] [ruby-trunk - Feature #7148][Open] Improved Tempfile w/o DelegateClass Issue #7148 has been reported by Glass_saga (Masaki Matsushita). ---------------------------------------- Feature #7148: Improved Tempfile w/o DelegateClass https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/7148 Author: Glass_saga (Masaki Matsushita) Status: Open Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: lib Target version: I propose improved Tempfile without DelegateClass(). Present Tempfile has following problems. 1) confusing inspect t = Tempfile.new("foo") #=> # t.is_a? File #=> false 2) #dup doesn't duplicate IO t = Tempfile.new("foo") t.dup.close t.read #=> IOError: closed stream 3) finalizer performs unlink even when it has been duplicated t = Tempfile.new("foo") path = t.path #=> "/tmp/foo20121012-7533-1q537gq" File.exist? path #=> true tt = t.dup t = nil GC.start File.exist? path #=> false I think these problems caused by using DelegateClass(). Therefore, I made a patch to resolve the problems. The patched Tempfile class is a subclass of File. -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
