[jira] [Commented] (THRIFT-5367) Ruby library crashes when using GC.compact

["Jens Geyer (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-5367?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17298621#comment-17298621 ] 

Jens Geyer commented on THRIFT-5367:
------------------------------------

Just asking:

{code}
-  s.add_development_dependency 'bundler',            '~> 1.11'
+  s.add_development_dependency 'bundler',            '>= 1.0'
{code}

Why is this?

>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 0.14.1
>            Reporter: Stan Hu
>            Priority: Major
>         Attachments: thrift-ruby-gc.patch
>
>
> Ruby v2.7 introduced support for a compacting garbage collector ([https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15626)] that can be invoked via `GC.compact`.
>  
> The Thrift library does not mark its global constants, so seg faults appear when using `GC.compact`.
>  
> The attached patch appears to fix the problem and makes tests pass in Ruby v2.7 and v3.0.
