# frozen_string_literal: true #-- # Most objects are cloneable, but not all. For example you can't dup methods: # # method(:puts).dup # => TypeError: allocator undefined for Method # # Classes may signal their instances are not duplicable removing +dup+/+clone+ # or raising exceptions from them. So, to dup an arbitrary object you normally # use an optimistic approach and are ready to catch an exception, say: # # arbitrary_object.dup rescue object # # Rails dups objects in a few critical spots where they are not that arbitrary. # That rescue is very expensive (like 40 times slower than a predicate), and it # is often triggered. # # That's why we hardcode the following cases and check duplicable? instead of # using that rescue idiom. #++ class Object # Can you safely dup this object? # # False for method objects; # true otherwise. def duplicable? true end end class NilClass begin nil.dup rescue TypeError # +nil+ is not duplicable: # # nil.duplicable? # => false # nil.dup # => TypeError: can't dup NilClass def duplicable? false end end end class FalseClass begin false.dup rescue TypeError # +false+ is not duplicable: # # false.duplicable? # => false # false.dup # => TypeError: can't dup FalseClass def duplicable? false end end end class TrueClass begin true.dup rescue TypeError # +true+ is not duplicable: # # true.duplicable? # => false # true.dup # => TypeError: can't dup TrueClass def duplicable? false end end end class Symbol begin :symbol.dup # Ruby 2.4.x.
