Feature #2509
closedRecursive freezing?
Description
=begin
I like freezing my constants, config files I read, etc... I believe it is the typical use case for #freeze.
In all theses cases, what I really want to do is freeze everything. There is often no easy way to do this (e.g. for config files), or else one must explicitly call freeze a bunch of times, like:
DEFAULT_SEND_FILE_OPTIONS = {
:type => 'application/octet-stream'.freeze,
:disposition => 'attachment'.freeze,
}.freeze
It would be very nice if there was an easy way to freeze recursively arrays, hashes, etc...
A solution would be for #freeze to accept a level argument (similar to flatten, but the default being 1), or alternatively a boolean one (recursive = false).
Should I write a patch for this feature request?
Thanks,
Marc-André
