Issue #20484 has been updated by duerst (Martin Dürst). Status changed from Open to Feedback Can you give an example with actual code to show where you get problems? ---------------------------------------- Feature #20484: A new pragma for eager resolution of classes referenced in rescue clauses. https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20484#change-108241 * Author: jfrisby (Jon Frisby) * Status: Feedback ---------------------------------------- I've been using Ruby for 20 years, and just today learned (the hard way) that the class name(s) referenced in a `rescue` clause are not resolved until an exception occurs. Upon reflection, this behavior probably makes sense in a lot of situations. Late resolution may simplify code loading for the developer. I would, however, love to see an opt-in feature (a la `frozen-string-literal`) to force resolution when the code is loaded/parsed. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
