ArgumentError set in $! when executing Date comparison in a TestCase
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-3292
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-3292
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core Classes/Modules
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.1.6
Environment: OSX 10.5.6, MRI 1.8.5
Reporter: Russ Rollins
Attachments: jruby_comparison_date_test.rb
Executing:
{code}
Date.today != nil
{code}
inside of a subclassed instance of Test::Unit::TestCase, this code will raise
an ArgumentError in the bowels of JRuby and set $!. I found this problem while
porting a Rails app and attempting to run my tests. Because $! is set,
Test::Unit will silently exit without any indication there is a problem (see
at_exit block at test/unit.rb:276).
The attached test case passes in MRI, fails in JRuby (Rails or non-Rails
environment).
