Hi all,
This is a ruby-dev summary in these days.
[ruby-dev:25430] 1.8 warn nonblocking IO#read and add IO#readpartial
Akr suggested to make changes of IO in ruby 1.8:
* warn when you use nonblocking IO#read
* add a new method IO#readpartial
But Tomita raised an objection to add warning to 1.8 stable version
([ruby-dev:25443]). If correct scripts in 1.8.2 become "broken"
in 1.8.3, many users and developers will be confused and they think
that Ruby is not a stable language. However, mput pointed out that
Ruby change its specification in stable version (ex. between 1.8.1
and 1.8.2). Matz admitted that there are some (non-critical) incompatible
changes and some of them are on purpose.
Akr made a modified suggestion that warnings are raised with
-w option.
