Subject: [PATCH] resurrection of # -*- warn_past_scope: true -*-

I understand this feature was killed due to [Bug #10661].

However sometimes i _do_ want to check variable name collisions.

Please consider this feature again, with default off; no warning shall
be emitted unless theere are the dedicated magic comment in the source
code.

This patch works like this:

% ./ruby --disable-gems -w -ve '[1, 2, 3].sample.tap { |rand| puts "Random value: #{rand}" }; puts "Another random value: #{rand}"'
ruby 2.5.0dev (2017-12-04 warn_past_scope 61011) [x86_64-darwin15]
Random value: 3
Another random value: 0.25989520023218615

% ./ruby --disable-gems -w -ve '# warn_past_scope: true' -e '[1, 2, 3].sample.tap { |rand| puts "Random value: #{rand}" }; puts "Another random value: #{rand}"'

I have no pro or con opinion so I will not comment on the suggestion.

I have one question though, apologies for a bit of side tracking:

  • Can this be combined with other comment options such as "# frozen_string_literal: true"

?

Perhaps it may not apply as your example is only commandline but
I wanted to ask just in case anyone may want to combine more
than one option, for whatever reason, into the .rb file at hand.

Seems to me to be more appropriate as a Rubocop cop.

Updated by shyouhei (Shyouhei Urabe) over 6 years ago

@shevegen (Robert A. Heiler) Yes. You can write multiple magic comments

  • at once, like this:

      # -*- coding: utf-8; frozen_string_literal: true; warn_indent: true; warn_past_scope: true -*-
    
  • or, line by line like this:

      # coding: utf-8
      # frozen_string_literal: true
      # warn_indent: true
      # warn_past_scope: true

At least, I don't like the name warn_past_code. It's not intuitive.
And it may be better to be handled by Rubocop as Marc-Andre said.

Matz.

Are we relying on rubocop as ruby’s official linter?

This question comes inline with my recent previous comment around core functionalities that I believe should be better managed as part of ruby API.
Debugger, Coverage, Unit tests, Benchmarks, Performance tools and yes Linter.
Missing Documentation here.
Maybe something else?
