Raw Normal View History

Language Spec.
* operator !! for rescue. ???
* objectify characters
* ../... outside condition invokes operator method too.
* ... inside condition turns off just before right condition.???
* package or access control for global variables??
* named arguments like foo(nation:="german") or foo(nation: "german").
* method to retrieve argument information (needs new C API)
* multiple return values, yield values. maybe incompatible ???
* cascading method invocation ???
* def Class#method .. end ??
* class Foo::Bar<Baz .. end, module Boo::Bar .. end
* def Foo::Bar::baz() .. end ??
* I18N (or M17N) script/string/regexp
* Fixnum 0 as false ????
* discourage use of symbol variables (e.g. $/, etc.) in manual
* discourage use of Perlish features by giving warnings.
* non confusing in-block local variable (is it possible?)
+ remove scope by block
+ variables appears within block may have independent values.
* Regexp: make /o thread safe.
* decide whether begin with rescue or ensure make do..while loop.
* a +1 to be a+1, not a(+1).
* unify == and eql? again
* to_i returns nil if str contains no digit.
* raise exception by `` error
* jar like combined library package.
* "@foo ||= 44" should not warn you.
Hacking Interpreter
- generational GC
* non-blocking open (e.g. for named pipe) for thread
* avoid blocking with gethostbyname/gethostbyaddr (use fork ???)
* objectify interpreters ???
* remove rb_eval() recursions
* syntax tree -> bytecode ???
* scrambled script, or script filter
* setuid ruby
* performance tune for in-block (dynamic) local variables.
* give warnings to assign magic variables.
* export rb_io_{addstr,printf,puts,print}
* autoload should work with threads [ruby-talk:4589]
* remove stdio dependency from IOs.
* warn for inconsistent local variable usage (lv m and method m at the same time).
* MicroRuby
* Built-in Interactive Ruby.
* trap every method invocation, which can be enabled by e.g. trap_call :method.
