OrderedHash .to_hash and .sort

Reported by Stephen Heuer | March 4th, 2009 @ 02:49 AM

Using ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [i686-darwin9.6.0]

It seems in rails 2.3 that .to_hash doesn't work, and .sort now returns an array instead of an ordered hash.


Loading development environment (Rails 2.2.2)
>> ActiveSupport::OrderedHash.new([:one, :two])
=> [:one, :two]
>> ActiveSupport::OrderedHash.new([[:one, :two]])
=> [[:one, :two]]
>> h = ActiveSupport::OrderedHash.new
=> []
>> h[:one] = :two
=> :two
>> h.to_hash
=> {:one=>:two}
>> h.keys
=> [:one]
>> h.sort
=> [[:one, :two]]
>> h.sort.keys
=> [:one]
>> h.sort.class
=> ActiveSupport::OrderedHash

Loading development environment (Rails 2.3.0)
>> ActiveSupport::OrderedHash.new([:one, :two])
=> #<OrderedHash {}>
>> ActiveSupport::OrderedHash.new([[:one, :two]])
=> #<OrderedHash {}>
>> h = ActiveSupport::OrderedHash.new
=> #<OrderedHash {}>
>> h[:one] = :two
=> :two
>> h.to_hash
=> {}
>> h.keys
=> [:one]
>> h.sort
=> [[:one, :two]]
>> h.sort.keys
NoMethodError: undefined method 'keys' for [[:one, :two]]:Array
	from (irb):8
>> h.sort.class
=> Array

    • Assigned user set to “Jeremy Kemper”
    • Milestone cleared.

    Partially fixed in http://github.com/rails/rails/co... but

    (a) The change to to_hash introduced

    SystemStackError: stack level too deep

    into inspect

    (b) Sort still behaves differently than it did in 2.2.2.

    HOWEVER - the original 2.3.0 behavior under ruby 1.8 is consistent with the way OrderedHash behaves in 1.9:

    
    
    irb(main):001:0> h = Hash.new
    => {}
    irb(main):002:0> h[:one] = :two
    => :two
    irb(main):003:0> h.keys
    => [:one]
    irb(main):004:0> h.sort
    => [[:one, :two]]
    irb(main):005:0> h.sort.keys
    NoMethodError: undefined method `keys' for [[:one, :two]]:Array
    	from (irb):5
    	from /Users/mike/.rubies/1.9.T/bin/irb:12:in `<main>'
    irb(main):006:0> h.sort.class
    => Array
    
    

    Probably the commit should just be reverted and the 2.2.2 behavior considered a bug.
