Hey!
I have implemented a quick solution for the should != .. , should !
~ ... 'problem'.
It uses source code inspection (I think it's the only way) and i've
done some
benchmarking to see if it's really that slow.
A direct comparison of
running '1.should == 1'
with the unmodified rspec source against the rspec-version with
source inspect
shows that the latter is 7 times slower ... :(
But benchmarks with '1.should == 1' inside a real example file are
showing 'only'
an overall speed decrease of 15% to 50%. That is still bad but having
lots of people
consider the passing of '1.should != 1' an rspec bug is bad too.
Here is the benchmarking script:
http://pastie.caboo.se/206853
And the code is at branch 'inspect' in:
git://github.com/mhennemeyer/rspec
There are examples for should and should_not != and !~ and i will
definitely work on performance if you not totally reject this whole
idea.
Matthias.
