[[MacRuby sharedRuntime] evaluateString:@"a"] crashes the application

[rakoth.lichlord@…]

This obviously happens because the code to be evaluated contains an error - local variable a is undefined - but as I see in objc.m, evaluateString should throw an exception, not crash the app.

GBD cannot catch this bug somehow, this is all I get: Cannot access memory at address 0x2444c75f

I cannot reproduce this problem with the EmbeddedMacRuby example. Could you share your code, or give a full threaded backtrace from GDB?

[rakoth.lichlord@…]

I've checked EmbeddedMacRuby example and our code only differs in that you catch the exception yourself, while I expected that MacRuby framework would do that. No matter - it's great as it is, so please close this ticket, and thanks for those examples.

Excellent - closing.
