Issue #17160 has been updated by vo.x (Vit Ondruch). I thought there will be some magic and yes, it is confusing, because I'd expect the `rescue` exception to be the rule. Also, if the `WebConsole::Evaluator#eval` was named differently, it would be probably more obvious. Appreciate your explanation. Thx. ---------------------------------------- Bug #17160: Wrong exception backtrace https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17160#change-87504 * Author: vo.x (Vit Ondruch) * Status: Rejected * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 2.7.1p83 (2020-03-31 revision a0c7c23c9c) [x86_64-linux] * Backport: 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Looking at web-console test results [1], there is following error reported: ~~~ WebConsole::EvaluatorTest#test_Evaluator_callers_are_cleaned_up_of_unneeded_backtraces [/home/travis/build/rails/web-console/test/web_console/evaluator_test.rb:63]: --- expected +++ actual @@ -1,3 +1,3 @@ "RuntimeError: oops -\tfrom /home/travis/build/rails/web-console/test/web_console/evaluator_test.rb:61:in `block in <class:EvaluatorTest>' +\tfrom (eval):1:in `block in <class:EvaluatorTest>' " ~~~ Trying to reproduce the issue, it seems that the exception backtrace is not correct. I have used slightly modified version of [2] included in attachment and the output is: ~~~ $ ruby -ractive_support -r./evaluator -e 'e = WebConsole::Evaluator.new(binding); puts e.eval("raise %{oops}")' # exc.backtrace # -e:1:in `<main>' /builddir/t/evaluator.rb:22:in `eval' /builddir/t/evaluator.rb:22:in `eval' -e:1:in `<main>' # caller # /builddir/t/evaluator.rb:24:in `rescue in eval' /builddir/t/evaluator.rb:21:in `eval' -e:1:in `<main>' RuntimeError: oops ~~~ I believe, that the `exc.backtrace` is wrong and the second line should actually be ```/builddir/t/evaluator.rb:21:in `eval'``` similarly to the output of the `caller`.
