Description
When accessing Method#parameters for a method using forwarding parameters, an unexpected behavior arises:
def foo(*, **, &)
binding.eval "print(#{(method(__method__).parameters.dig(0,1))})" # Works fine
end
foo(1,2,3,4) # => 1234
def bar(...)
binding.eval "print(#{(method(__method__).parameters.dig(0,1))})" # Fails!
end
bar(1,2,3,3) # SyntaxError
It's very strange that you can't access the parameters, on eval, using the symbols provided at Method#parameters.
Adding [:forward, :...] or [:forwarding, :...] for those cases feels simply natural.
