I couldn't reproduce it. Vanilla 1.8.6 is still slightly better in that it prints from ../../foo.rb:6 whereas a recent 0.7 prints a full path: from /Users/marick/src/clients/SES/Tests/preferences/../../foo.rb:6:in `<main>' On May 3, 2010, at 4:46 PM, Laurent Sansonetti wrote:
Hi Brian,
This looks like a bug. I don't know why it's fixed in 0.7 for you, because we haven't changed a lot of things there.
In any case, a trac ticket might be a good idea if you still reproduce the problem. Note that backtraces in MacRuby are generated by walking through the stack and sometimes some entries are missing. File/line numbering is retrieved from DWARF metadata but sometimes it's incorrectly compiled. So, bug reports are welcome :-)

I see that this works in 0.7. Sorry for the waste of bandwidth.

Suppose you have foo.rb:
def __DIR__ caller[0] raise 'death' end
puts __DIR__
If you call that from, say, a directory two levels below it, you get this:
818 $ macruby ../../foo.rb foo.rb:2:in `__DIR__': death (RuntimeError) from foo.rb:6:in `<main>'
In 1.8.6 (and I sure hope in stock 1.9), you get filenames with the relative directory:
819 $ ruby ../../foo.rb ../../foo.rb:3:in `__DIR__': death (RuntimeError) from ../../foo.rb:6
I think that's important because there are tools (IDEs, my emacs hacks) that use the backtrace from a test to jump to the failing code. You can't do that unless you have the full pathname.
I will file a ticket if this is a real bug.
