[ruby-core:113221] [Ruby master Misc#19597] Process.argv0 returns the same mutable String
Issue #19597 has been reported by andrykonchin (Andrew Konchin). ---------------------------------------- Misc #19597: Process.argv0 returns the same mutable String https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19597 * Author: andrykonchin (Andrew Konchin) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- `Process.argv0` returns a name of the script being executed. But it seems it's always the same object, that can be modified and this change will be visible to the consequent `Process.argv0` calls. It makes sense to return a frozen String that cannot be modified. `$0` initial value equals a value returned by `Process.argv0` so `$0` by default also could be a frozen String. Example: ```ruby puts "Object id:" p Process.argv0.object_id p Process.argv0.object_id puts "Value before modification:" p Process.argv0 Process.argv0.upcase! puts "Value after modification:" p Process.argv0 ``` It will output: ``` Object id: 60 60 Value before modification: "argv0.rb" Value after modification: "ARGV0.RB" ``` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

Issue #19597 has been updated by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada). I found `$0` had been frozen till 1.9. ```shell-session $ ruby1.9 -e 'p $0.upcase!; p $0; system("ps #$$")' -e:1:in `upcase!': can't modify frozen String (RuntimeError) from -e:1:in `<main>' ``` I'm not sure why/when it changed, yet. ---------------------------------------- Misc #19597: Process.argv0 returns the same mutable String https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19597#change-102990 * Author: andrykonchin (Andrew Konchin) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- `Process.argv0` returns a name of the script being executed.

Issue #19597 has been updated by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada). Once assigned to `$0`, it is frozen. ```shell-session $ ruby -v -e '$0 = "test"; p $0; $0.upcase!' ruby 3.3.0dev (2023-05-05T14:01:50Z master 40438fc4d3) [x86_64-darwin22] "test" -e:1:in `upcase!': can't modify frozen String: "test" (FrozenError) from -e:1:in `<main>' ``` So I'd say that only the first `$0` is not frozen is a bug. ---------------------------------------- Misc #19597: Process.argv0 returns the same mutable String https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19597#change-102991 * Author: andrykonchin (Andrew Konchin) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- `Process.argv0` returns a name of the script being executed.
