How do I do a bug report ?

[Jean-Claude Arbaut]

I tried the CVS version of ruby (1.9.0), and found this in file
ruby/ext/tk/lib/tk/canvas.rb:

def __item_val2ruby_optkeys(id) # { key=>proc, ... }
super(id).update('window'=>proc{|i, v| window(v)})
end
private :__val2ruby_optkeys

The last line should be __item_val2ruby_optkeys I think, and
with that correction the Canvas example at
http://www.rubycentral.com/book/ext_tk.html works fine.
But where should I send this ? And is it really useful to
send bug reports about the CVS version ?

Sorry if this is completely OT...

I tried the CVS version of ruby (1.9.0), and found this in file
ruby/ext/tk/lib/tk/canvas.rb:

def __item_val2ruby_optkeys(id) # { key=3D>proc, ... }
super(id).update('window'=3D>proc{|i, v| window(v)})
end
private :__val2ruby_optkeys

The last line should be __item_val2ruby_optkeys I think, and

I'd also have a same feeling with you.
Whenever I found strange behaviors in 1.9 CVS HEAD, I'd bury it after
some hesitation, because I didn't surely know what do I do. Would it
be OK to report weird thing in very unstable/experimental version?

Thank you for the report.

ruby-core mailing list is the best place. But here in ruby-talk (or
comp.lang.ruby newsgroup) is fine too.

I don't think so.

Sure, if you're having problem with very recent version. But
ruby-core mailing list is the best place to report if it's possible.
