Martin Boßlet created JRUBY-6634: ------------------------------------ Summary: String.new(string) does not seem to clone the input Key: JRUBY-6634 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-6634 Project: JRuby Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Classes/Modules Affects Versions: JRuby 1.7 Environment: $ jruby --1.9 -v jruby 1.7.0.dev (ruby-1.9.3-p6) (2012-01-21 0d0c764) (Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 1.7.0_02) [linux-amd64-java]
Reporter: Martin Boßlet Steps to reproduce: s = "test" t = String.new(s) t.setbyte(0, "r".ord) p s #=> rest p t #=> rest puts s == "rest" #=> true puts s == "test" #=> false I was under the impression that s should still be equal to "test", that is t should be a copy of the contents of s. That's at least what I get in CRuby(1.9.3)? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
