[ruby-core:46229] [ruby-trunk - Feature #3346] __DIR__ revisted

From: "naruse (Yui NARUSE)" <naruse@...>
Date: 2012-07-06 09:53:12 UTC
List: ruby-core #46229
Issue #3346 has been updated by naruse (Yui NARUSE).


I was against the name __DIR__ for years,
but now I'm for __dir__ if __file__ and __line__ method is also added.
----------------------------------------
Feature #3346: __DIR__ revisted
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/3346#change-27857

Author: trans (Thomas Sawyer)
Status: Assigned
Priority: Normal

Target version: 


=begin
 I'd like to know why __DIR__ was rejected? I use File.dirname(__FILE__) all the time, and I frequently see others do so as well. #relative_require is helpful but it covers only one specific use case --and probably not the most common one. I am often using File.dirname(__FILE__) in build scripts, when I am loading examples for tests, and when I load output templates or other pluggable modules that reside relative to my code. For something so common, having to clutter my code with a 22 character sequence, when an perfectly obvious 7 character sequence would do semms very uncharacteristic of Ruby, which is usually quite concise. Indeed, it is not uncommon to see code that defines a constant such as DIR = File.dirname(__FILE__) when it will be used more than once because it quickly becomes an eye-sore. For these reasons I hope you will reconsider the earlier rejection.
=end
