Subject: [ruby-core:53659] [ruby-trunk - Bug #4487] require_relative fails in an eval'ed file


Issue #4487 has been updated by Conrad.Irwin (Conrad Irwin).


This bug also affects pry: https://github.com/pry/pry/issues/880. Our use-case is slightly different because we are doing TOPLEVEL_BINDING.eval("some code", "/absolute/path.rb").

I think that when an absolute path is set in eval, then require_relative should use it.

Hello all.
 
 $cat eval_me1.rb
 eval(File.read('eval_me2.rb'), binding, File.expand_path('./eval_me2.rb'))
 $cat eval_me2.rb
 require_relative 'eval_me1.rb'
 $ ruby eval_me1.rb
 C:/dev/ruby/faster_require/spec/eval_me2.rb:1:in `require_relative': cannot infer basepath (LoadError)
        from C:/dev/ruby/faster_require/spec/eval_me2.rb:1:in `<main>'
        from eval_me1.rb:1:in `eval'
        from eval_me1.rb:1:in `<main>'

I suppose was assuming that if eval included a filename, then require_relative would work from within it. Perhaps I am mistaken?
Thanks!
