Issue #20411 has been reported by gmcgibbon (Gannon McGibbon). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20411: Kenrel.autoload? behaviour https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20411 * Author: gmcgibbon (Gannon McGibbon) * Status: Open * ruby -v: 3.3.0 * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- 👋 I recently tried checking if a top-level constant was autoloaded within a module, and it doesn't seem to work properly when calling `autoload?` from `Kernel`. Here's a simple reproduction script: ``` autoload :A, "a.rb" module B puts Kernel.autoload?(:A) # nil puts Module.autoload?(:A) # a.rb end puts Kernel.autoload?(:A) # a.rb puts Module.autoload?(:A) # a.rb ``` I would expect `Kernel.autoload?` and `Module.autoload?` to behave the same way, and return the path of the autoloaded constant until it is loaded. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
