Float#coerce fails when invoked with String argument
----------------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-1589
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-1589
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core Classes/Modules
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.x
Environment: Ubuntu Linux 7.10,
ruby 1.8.5 (2007-11-20 rev 4842) [i386-jruby1.1b1]
Reporter: Vladimir Sizikov
This works: jruby -e 'p 1.coerce("2.5")' ===> [2.5, 1.0]
This doesn't: jruby -e 'p 1.8.coerce("2.5")' ===> wrong argument type String
(expected Numeric) (TypeError)
The only difference is Fixnum vs Float. So, the Float's version of coerce()
doesn't work with String arguments.
This leads to Rubinius spec test failure:
Float#coerce returns [other, self] both as Floats FAILED
wrong argument type String (expected Numeric):
