We end up calling String.CompareTo which performs a lexicographical comparison. This is the source of the different behavior. This should be filed as a bug in RubyForge if it hasn’t been already.
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ivan Porto Carrero Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2008 12:54 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Ironruby-core] sorting of strings is different in IronRuby than in Ruby Hi I was playing around with a very simple code example and got different results in IronRuby and in Ruby. "IronRuby In Action".split(//).sort.uniq.join returns in MRI: " AIRbcinortuy" returns in IronRuby: " AbciInorRtuy" I'm sure you guys are aware of this, but just in case :) I guess in the end the 2 results should be the same or is this perhaps something that has to do with encoding? Cheers Ivan
