![]() Ruby uses a recursive algorithm for handling control/meta escapes in strings (read_escape). However, the equivalent code for regexps (tokadd_escape) in did not use a recursive algorithm. Due to this, Handling of control/meta escapes in regexp did not have the same behavior as in strings, leading to behavior such as the following returning nil: ```ruby /\c\xFF/ =~ "\c\xFF" ``` Switch the code for handling \c, \C and \M in literal regexps to use the same code as for strings (read_escape), to keep behavior consistent between the two. Fixes [Bug #14367] |

There are numerous possible way of categorizing the entities and concepts that make up a programming language. Ruby has a fairly large number of reserved words. These words significantly describe major elements of the language, including flow control constructs like 'for' and 'while', conditional execution like 'if' and 'unless', exceptional execution control like 'rescue', etc. There are also literals for the basic "types" like String, Regexp, Array and Integer. Behavioral specifications describe the behavior of concrete entities. Rather than using concepts of computation to organize these spec files, we use entities of the Ruby language. Consider looking at any syntactic element of a Ruby program. With (almost) no ambiguity, one can identify it as a literal, reserved word, variable, etc. There is a spec file that corresponds to each literal construct and most reserved words, with the exceptions noted below. There are also several files that are more difficult to classify: all predefined variables, constants, and objects (predefined_spec.rb), the precedence of all operators (precedence_spec.rb), the behavior of assignment to variables (variables_spec.rb), the behavior of subprocess execution (execution_spec.rb), the behavior of the raise method as it impacts the execution of a Ruby program (raise_spec.rb), and the block entities like 'begin', 'do', ' { ... }' (block_spec.rb). Several reserved words and other entities are combined with the primary reserved word or entity to which they are related: false, true, nil, self predefined_spec.rb in for_spec.rb then, elsif if_spec.rb when case_spec.rb catch throw_spec.rb
