I've done some more investigation and it appears that it has to do with
Extension methods.
public static bool IsNull(this object value)
{
return value == null;
}
and
public static bool IsNull2(object value)
{
return value == null;
}
>>> System::Web::Mvc::IronRuby::Extensions::ObjectExtensions.is_null nil
:0: can't convert NilClass into Object (TypeError)
>>> System::Web::Mvc::IronRuby::Extensions::ObjectExtensions.is_null2 nil
=> true
I've commented the issue on codeplex but couldn't change the title of the
bug.
