#815: Macrake crashes at initialization -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: legrand@… | Owner: lsansonetti@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: critical | Milestone: MacRuby 0.7 Component: MacRuby | Keywords: -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Comment(by martinlagardette@…): The problem comes from the fact that the `-copy` selector is overridden on NSObject by Rake, which causes some problems when comes the time to handle exceptions. Because we use Obj-C exceptions and some Obj-C methods, some `-copy` messages are sent to the object, which goes through the MacRuby- defined `-copy` implementation, instead of the original implementation. What this means is that whenever rake and exceptions are involved and it crashes, you can be sure the reason is this bug :D (#839 and #840 deal with exceptions with rake, and they are duplicate of this bug). -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/815#comment:2> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>
