rspec users - Jan 2011 - after changing text in "it" block -e and -l options not working

hi guys !
I am pretty new to rspec and I am still learning.
I tried to change the text in "it" block and then run the rspec with
-e and
-l flag with appropriate values.

But it dint work.

What i can think of is rspec must have stored the earlier information which
is not updated.

here is what i got
=================================================================C:\work>jruby
-S rspec specification\xyz\install_spec.rb -l 105
Run filtered using {:line_number=>105}
F

Failures:

  1) #POST_OPERATIONS should stop machine
     Failure/Error: if not $pre_arr.has_key?(k.to_s) then
     NoMethodError:
       undefined method `has_key?'' for "0":String
     # ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:26:in `get_id''
     # ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:25:in `each''
     # ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:25:in `get_id''
     # ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:60
     # ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:106:in `call''
     # ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:106
     # :1

Finished in 4.41 seconds
1 example, 1 failure
================================================================
please help !!

Thanks & Regards

RSpec does not do anything like that between runs.

Are you saying you had a passing example at first, and then you changed it, and
then it failed? What was the content of the example (the "it" block)
before and after the change?
