Issue #11103 has been reported by Sigurd Berg Svela. ---------------------------------------- Bug #11103: Reassignment in if block that is not ran, causes variable to become nil https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11103 * Author: Sigurd Berg Svela * Status: Open * Priority: High * Assignee: * ruby -v: ruby 2.0.0p481 (2014-05-08 revision 45883) [universal.x86_64-darwin14] * Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN, 2.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- I came across a situation where, when reassigning a variable, inside an if statement that is evaluated to false, causes the variable to become nil. I have included the code to reproduce the problem as a file. Changing the line <pre>variable = [variable]</pre> to <pre>@variable = [@variable]</pre> seems to work as a temporary workaround, but this still seems to me as a pretty weird bug. ---Files-------------------------------- ruby-bug.rb (649 Bytes) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
