Summary:	'i = ? true : false' Handled Incorrectly for Ruby

Description rcordner 2009-04-15 19:09:11 UTC

Given the Ruby code:

i=1
j = i == 1 ? true : false
puts j

the IDE states that the value of j is nil while the puts correctly shows 'true'. This only happens if the conditional 
returns true and false. The IDE has the same problem with these related code fragments:

Fragment1:

i=1
j = case i
 when 1
  true
 else
  false
 end

Fragment 2:

i=1
j = if i == 1 then
  true
 else
  false
 end

Seems to be fixed now, likely was a problem in the backend. Please reopen if you can still reproduce this with a 6.7 
build (http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/latest/).

Forgot to add that please make sure you have the latest debug gems installed before testing.
