File#truncate creates a new file if the file doesn't exist
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-1612
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-1612
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core Classes/Modules
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.x
Environment: Ubuntu Linux 7.10,
ruby 1.8.5 (2007-11-22 rev 4842) [i386-jruby1.1b1]
Reporter: Vladimir Sizikov
File.truncate, when provided the non-existing file name, creates that file, But
MRI reports the No such file or directory (Errno::ENOENT), which seems to be a
correct behavior.
MRI:
#ruby -e 'File.truncate("NOT_EXISTING_FILE", 5)'
-e:1:in `truncate': No such file or directory - NOT_EXISTING_FILE
(Errno::ENOENT)
from -e:1
JRuby:
#jruby -e 'File.truncate("NOT_EXISTING_FILE_XXX", 5)'
# ls -l NOT_EXISTING_FILE_XXX ==> -rw-r--r-- 1 user group 5 2007-11-23 01:16
NOT_EXISTING_FILE_XXX
Note that JRuby creates the file and fills it with zeroes.
