[ruby-core:117608] [Ruby master Feature#15554] warn/error passing a block to a method which never use a block

19 Apr '24

Issue #15554 has been updated by byroot (Jean Boussier). So I went over Rails warnings after the last patch, I may have missed some, but there is now about 5 unique warnings left: ``` /rails/activejob/lib/active_job/enqueuing.rb:69: warning: the block passed to 'job_or_instantiate' defined at /rails/activejob/lib/active_job/enqueuing.rb:78 may be ignored ``` This one is the one I mentioned above with `...`. It's technically correct, I'll likely fix it in Rails. ``` /rails/actionpack/test/controller/resources_test.rb:592: warning: the block passed to 'ResourcesTest#assert_singleton_named_routes_for' defined at /rails/actionpack/test/controller/resources_test.rb:1308 may be ignored ``` Totally legit, allowed to find a couple assertions that were ignored in the test suite. ``` /rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/callbacks.rb:130: warning: the block passed to 'FilterTest::NonYieldingAroundFilterController#non_yielding_action' defined at /rails/actionpack/test/controller/filters_test.rb:517 may be ignored ``` `non_yielding_action` is essentially a stub, so technically a false positive, but I think it's acceptable. ``` /rails/activerecord/test/cases/serialized_attribute_test.rb:505: warning: the block passed to 'attribute' defined at /rails/activemodel/lib/active_model/attribute_registration.rb:12 may be ignored ``` Legit, uncovered a problem in a test. ``` /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/3.4.0+0/gems/actionview-7.1.3.2/lib/action_view/base.rb:264: warning: the block passed to '_inline_template___4411181644816080575_6440' defined at inline template:0 may be ignored ``` Semi-legit, the Rails "template" interface allow for a block, so we always pass one, but not all implementation use it. My overall impression after the latest change: - It is much much less noisy - I don't know how many true positive are now silenced, but the interesting thing is that the noise reduction allowed me to find 2-3 bugs I couldn't before because it was hidden in the noise. - There is still things that aren't strictly false positives, but that are somewhat intended, but I think it's acceptable. ---------------------------------------- Feature #15554: warn/error passing a block to a method which never use a block https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15554#change-108017 * Author: ko1 (Koichi Sasada) * Status: Closed * Assignee: matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto) ---------------------------------------- # Abstract Warn or raise an ArgumentError if block is passed to a method which does not use a block. In other words, detect "block user methods" implicitly and only "block user methods" can accept a block. # Background Sometimes, we pass a block to a method which ignores the passed block accidentally. ``` def my_open(name) open(name) end # user hopes it works as Kernel#open which invokes a block with opened file. my_open(name){|f| important_work_with f } # but simply ignored... ``` To solve this issue, this feature request propose showing warnings or raising an exception on such case. Last developer's meeting, matz proposed `&nil` which declares this method never receive a block. It is explicit, but it is tough to add this `&nil` parameter declaration to all of methods (do you want to add it to `def []=(i, e, &nil)`?). (I agree `&nil` is valuable on some situations) # Spec ## Define "use a block" methods We need to define which method accepts a block and which method does not. * (1) method has a block parameter (`&b`) * (2) method body has `yield' * (3) method body has `super` (ZSUPER in internal terminology) or `super(...)` * (4) method body has singleton method (optional) (1) and (2) is very clear. I need to explain about (3) and (4). (3). `super` (ZSUPER) passes all parameters as arguments. So there is no surprise that which can accept `block`. However `super(...)` also passes a block if no explicit block passing (like `super(){}` or `super(&b)`) are written. I'm not sure we need to continue this strange specification, but to keep compatibility depending this spec, I add this rule. (4). surprisingly, the following code invoke a block: ``` def foo class << Object.new yield end end foo{ p :ok } #=> :ok ``` I'm also not sure we need to keep this spec, but to allow this spec, I added (4) rule. Strictly speaking, it is not required, but we don't keep the link from singleton class ISeq to lexical parent iseq now, so I added it. ## Exceptional cases A method called by `super` doesn`t warn warning even if this method doesn't use a block. The rule (3) can pass blocks easily and there are many methods don`t use a block. So my patch ignores callings by `super`. ## corner cases There are several cases to use block without (1)-(4) rules. ### `Proc.new/proc/lambda` without a block Now it was deprecated in r66772 (commit:9f1fb0a17febc59356d58cef5e98db61a3c03550). Related discussion: [Bug #15539] ### `block_given?` `block_given?` expects block, but I believe we use it with `yield` or a block parameter. If you know the usecase without them, please tell us. ### `yield` in `eval` We can't know `yield` (or (3), (4) rule) in an `eval` evaluating string at calling time. ``` def foo eval('yield`) end foo{} # at calling time, # we can't know the method foo can accept a block or not. ``` So I added a warning to use `yield` in `eval` like that: `test.rb:4: warning: use yield in eval will not be supported in Ruby 3.` Workaround is use a block parameter explicitly. ``` def foo &b eval('b.call') end foo{ p :ok } ``` # Implementation Strategy is: * [compile time] introduce `iseq::has_yield` field and check it if the iseq (or child iseq) contains `yield` (or something) * [calling time] if block is given, check `iseq::has_yield` flag and show warning (or raise an exception) https://gist.github.com/ko1/c9148ad0224bf5befa3cc76ed2220c0b On this patch, now it raises an error to make it easy to detect. It is easy to switch to show the warning. # Evaluation and discussion I tried to avoid ruby's tests. https://gist.github.com/ko1/37483e7940cdc4390bf8eb0001883786 Here is a patch. There are several patterns to avoid warnings. ## tests for `block_given?`, `Proc.new` (and similar) without block Add a dummy block parameter. It is test-specific issue. ## empty `each` Some tests add `each` methods do not `yield`, like: `def each; end`. Maybe test-specific issue, and adding a dummy block parameter. ## Subtyping / duck typing https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/c01a5ee85e2d6a7128cccafb143bfa694284ca87/… This `parse` method doesn't use `yield`, but other sub-type's `parse` methods use. ## `super` with `new` method https://gist.github.com/ko1/37483e7940cdc4390bf8eb0001883786#file-tests-pat… This method override `Class#new` method and introduce a hook with block (yield a block in this hook code). https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/trunk/lib/rubygems/package/tar_writer.rb#… In this method, call `super` and it also passing a block. However, called `initialize` doesn't use a block. ## Change robustness This change reduce robustness for API change. `Delegator` requires to support `__getobj__` for client classes. Now `__getobj__` should accept block but most of `__getobj__` clients do not call given block. https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/trunk/lib/delegate.rb#L80 This is because of delegator.rb's API change. https://gist.github.com/ko1/37483e7940cdc4390bf8eb0001883786#file-tests-pat… Nobu says calling block is not required (ignoring a block is no problem) so it is not a bug for delegator client classes. ## Found issues. ``` [ 2945/20449] Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply = 0.00 s 1) Error: Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "with_timeout" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:787) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:635:in `test_do_reply' [ 2946/20449] Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply_local = 0.00 s 2) Error: Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply_local: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "with_timeout" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:787) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:657:in `test_do_reply_local' [10024/20449] TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platform_mswin = 0.01 s 3) Error: TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platform_mswin: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "util_set_arch" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/lib/rubygems/test_case.rb:1053) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rubygems/test_gem_request_set_gem_dependency_api.rb:655:in `test_platform_mswin' [10025/20449] TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platforms = 0.01 s 4) Error: TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platforms: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "util_set_arch" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/lib/rubygems/test_case.rb:1053) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rubygems/test_gem_request_set_gem_dependency_api.rb:711:in `test_platforms' ``` These 4 detection show the problem. `with_timeout` method (used in Rinda test) and `util_set_arch` method (used in Rubygems test) simply ignore the given block. So these tests are simply ignored. I reported them. (https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/issues/2601) ## raise an error or show a warning? At least, Ruby 2.7 should show warning for this kind of violation with `-w`. How about for Ruby3? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

Issue #15554 has been updated by byroot (Jean Boussier). > I don't understand that one. ... As I said previously I made a mistake on that one. But here's the code that cause this warning: ```ruby def perform_later(...) job = job_or_instantiate(...) enqueue_result = job.enqueue yield job if block_given? enqueue_result end ``` `job_or_instantiate` doesn't accept a block. But for simplicity we forward all the arguments. To fix the warnings I'd need to do: ```ruby def perform_later(*, **) job = job_or_instantiate(*, **) enqueue_result = job.enqueue yield job if block_given? enqueue_result end ``` > @byroot (Jean Boussier) could you compare the results on rails tests? I'll compile a list later today.

[ruby-core:117605] [Ruby master Feature#6648] Provide a standard API for retrieving all command-line flags passed to Ruby
by Dan0042 (Daniel DeLorme) 19 Apr '24

19 Apr '24

Issue #6648 has been updated by Dan0042 (Daniel DeLorme). I'd like to revive this proposal. The OP mentions calling a subcommand with the same options/flags as the current interpreter, and that's a fine use case. As for me I'm also interested in re-executing the current script while keeping ruby options/flags. Some time ago I tried writing a rbenv alternative based on the idea of adding "-r versionchecker" to RUBYOPT and then re-executing the current script with a different interpreter if the .ruby-version file specified a different version. No bash, no shims! But it was not to be; the lack of this proposed API made this infeasible. In particular if ruby is executed with the `-e` argument it appears impossible to get back the value. I imagine this feature would also be very useful for web servers that need to re-execute upon receiving USR2. Currently they need to have all their options in RUBYOPT. Since the path to the current interpreter is already in `RbConfig.ruby` I would suggest `RbConfig.ruby_args` for this API. Then we could have a copy of the original $0 in `RbConfig.script` and a copy of the original ARGV in `RbConfig.script_args`, and to re-execute we can do ```ruby exec(RbConfig.ruby, *RbConfig.ruby_args, *RbConfig.script, *RbConfig.script_args) ``` Extra features I'd like, if possible: 1) if ruby is invoked with `-e` argument(s), $0 is "-e" but RbConfig.script should be an array of the arguments: ``` ruby -e 'p 42' -e 'p RbConfig.script' 42 ["-e", "42", "-e", "p RbConfig.script"] ``` 2) if ruby is invoked with script on stdin, $0 is "-" but RbConfig.script should be an array with "-e": ``` echo 'p RbConfig.script' | ruby ["-e", "p RbConfig.script"] ``` If either of those extra features are impossible/undesirable, RbConfig.script should be `false` so that exec/system fails with TypeError rather than executing random things. ---------------------------------------- Feature #6648: Provide a standard API for retrieving all command-line flags passed to Ruby https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6648#change-108014 * Author: headius (Charles Nutter) * Status: Assigned * Assignee: matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto) ---------------------------------------- Currently there are no standard mechanisms to get the flags passed to the currently running Ruby implementation. The available mechanisms are not ideal: * Scanning globals and hoping they have not been tweaked to new settings * Using external wrappers to launch Ruby * ??? Inability to get the full set of command-line flags, including flags passed to the VM itself (and probably VM-specific) makes it impossible to launch subprocess Ruby instances with the same settings. A real world example of this is "((%bundle exec%))" when called with a command line that sets various flags, a la ((%jruby -Xsome.vm.setting --1.9 -S bundle exec%)). None of these flags can propagate to the subprocess, so odd behaviors result. The only option is to put the flags into an env var (((|JRUBY_OPTS|)) or ((|RUBYOPT|))) but this breaks the flow of calling a simple command line. JRuby provides mechanisms to get all its command line options, but they require calling Java APIs from Ruby's API set. Rubinius provides its own API for accessing comand-line options, but I do not know if it includes VM-level flags as well as standard Ruby flags. I know there is a (({RubyVM})) namespace in the 2.0 line. If that namespace is intended to be general-purpose for VM-level features, it would be a good host for this API. Something like... ``` class << RubyVM def vm_args; end # returns array of command line args *not* passed to the target script def script; end # returns the script being executed...though this overlaps with $0 def script_args; end # returns args passed to the script...though this overlaps with ARGV, but that is perhaps warranted since ARGV can be modified (i.e. you probably want the original args) end ``` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:117604] [Ruby master Feature#18915] New error class: NotImplementedYetError or scope change for NotImplementedError
by Dan0042 (Daniel DeLorme) 19 Apr '24

19 Apr '24

Issue #18915 has been updated by Dan0042 (Daniel DeLorme). It's a bit off-topic but does anyone know why NotImplementedError doesn't inherit from StandardError? It seems like it should. If the system doesn't support `fork()` then I'd like to see that as a nice message via Rack::ShowExceptions rather than having to dig through logs. And if you use it for abstract classes then you *definitely* want that displayed by Rack::ShowExceptions ---------------------------------------- Feature #18915: New error class: NotImplementedYetError or scope change for NotImplementedError https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18915#change-108013 * Author: Quintasan (Michał Zając) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- # Abstract Introduce `NotImplementedYetError` exception that should be used in case when the codepath has not been implemented by the developer for some reason (maybe they're designing an abstract class or are designing some sort of interface to reuse later on) OR extend the meaning of `NotImplementedError` to cover those usecases so we don't have to introduce another exception # Background `NotImplementedError` is supposed to be raised `if the underlying operating system or Ruby runtime does not support them` (https://ruby-doc.org/core-3.1.2/NotImplementedError.html) However it appears that many people are misusing this exception by raising this in a superclass from which they later inherit from. I do realize that Ruby promotes duck-typing (the default RuboCop style guide has a cop for this – https://github.com/rubocop/ruby-style-guide#duck-typing) However I have seen this being discussed numerous times: * https://github.com/rubocop/ruby-style-guide/issues/458 * http://chrisstump.online/2016/03/23/stop-abusing-notimplementederror/ * https://oleg0potapov.medium.com/ruby-notimplementederror-dont-use-it-dff1fd… * https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/354314 (which I'm the author of) * https://github.com/rmosolgo/graphql-ruby/issues/2067 (here the author actually confused it with Python's `NotImplementedError`) * https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13668068/how-to-signal-not-implemented-… # Proposal Create `NotImplementedYetError` exception OR Allow raising `NotImplementedError` in cases other than OS or Ruby runtime incompatibilities # Evaluation ### Add `NotImplementedYetError` I think a new exception is a better idea than changing the usage of an existing one just because "everyone is using it". That said it would require people to refactor their code which might prevent wider adoption of the new exception. ### Change scope of `NotImplementedError` This would require the least amount of changes possible (only a documentation change) and I believe there would be no compatibility problems whatsoever. ---Files-------------------------------- not-implemented-error-docs.patch (1.57 KB) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:117602] [Ruby master Feature#15554] warn/error passing a block to a method which never use a block
by Dan0042 (Daniel DeLorme) 19 Apr '24

19 Apr '24

Issue #15554 has been updated by Dan0042 (Daniel DeLorme). byroot (Jean Boussier) wrote in #note-26: > So I'd expect `block_given?` to qualify as "using the block". But I suppose it's tricky because `block_given?` is just a method like any other for the compiler? I would also expect `block_given?` to qualify as "using the block", and I don't think there's any need to overthink it because it's just a method. If `block_given?` is present, do not show the warning. In the unlikely case that `block_given?` was actually a redefined method, then the warning is not displayed even if it should, and that's not really a serious issue. byroot (Jean Boussier) wrote in #note-28: > - It generated some false positive because of `...` delegation for methods that don't accept a block. I don't understand that one. `...` delegation doesn't "create" a block that is then passed down the chain. If you have `foo(1,2,3)` without a block that is delegated via `...` to `def bar(x,y,z) = x+y+z` then it shouldn't print a warning. But if you have `foo(1,2,3){ }` that is delegated via `...` to that same `bar` then it *should* print a warning, right? ko1 (Koichi Sasada) wrote in #note-29: > Matz hesitates to force to put `&_` (or other tricks) for duck typing methods I don't understand this duck typing argument. Normally, duck typing requires a method to have the same name AND arguments (or at least a compatible signature). ```ruby a = Object.new def a.foo(x,y) = nil b = Object.new def b.foo(x) = nil (rand<0.5 ? a : b).foo(1,2) #raises error 50% of the time; different arity = not duck-compatible ``` It's commonly understood that in order to have `a` and `b` be duck-compatible, their `foo` method must accept the same arguments. So if you want `b` to ignore an argument you'd have to define it like this: `def b.foo(x, dummy=nil) = nil` Blocks are a type of argument, so the same should apply; in order for `ActiveModel::Attribute#value` and `ActiveModel::Attribute::Uninitialized#value` to be duck-compatible, they should both take a block or neither take a block. The fact that it hasn't been the case until now is more like a quirk of the language that has resulted in many facepalm bugs. `ActiveModel::Attribute#value` should be defined with `&` to indicate that this method receives a block, and ignores it. ---------------------------------------- Feature #15554: warn/error passing a block to a method which never use a block https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15554#change-108011 * Author: ko1 (Koichi Sasada) * Status: Closed * Assignee: matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto) ---------------------------------------- # Abstract Warn or raise an ArgumentError if block is passed to a method which does not use a block. In other words, detect "block user methods" implicitly and only "block user methods" can accept a block. # Background Sometimes, we pass a block to a method which ignores the passed block accidentally. ``` def my_open(name) open(name) end # user hopes it works as Kernel#open which invokes a block with opened file. my_open(name){|f| important_work_with f } # but simply ignored... ``` To solve this issue, this feature request propose showing warnings or raising an exception on such case. Last developer's meeting, matz proposed `&nil` which declares this method never receive a block. It is explicit, but it is tough to add this `&nil` parameter declaration to all of methods (do you want to add it to `def []=(i, e, &nil)`?). (I agree `&nil` is valuable on some situations) # Spec ## Define "use a block" methods We need to define which method accepts a block and which method does not. * (1) method has a block parameter (`&b`) * (2) method body has `yield' * (3) method body has `super` (ZSUPER in internal terminology) or `super(...)` * (4) method body has singleton method (optional) (1) and (2) is very clear. I need to explain about (3) and (4). (3). `super` (ZSUPER) passes all parameters as arguments. So there is no surprise that which can accept `block`. However `super(...)` also passes a block if no explicit block passing (like `super(){}` or `super(&b)`) are written. I'm not sure we need to continue this strange specification, but to keep compatibility depending this spec, I add this rule. (4). surprisingly, the following code invoke a block: ``` def foo class << Object.new yield end end foo{ p :ok } #=> :ok ``` I'm also not sure we need to keep this spec, but to allow this spec, I added (4) rule. Strictly speaking, it is not required, but we don't keep the link from singleton class ISeq to lexical parent iseq now, so I added it. ## Exceptional cases A method called by `super` doesn`t warn warning even if this method doesn't use a block. The rule (3) can pass blocks easily and there are many methods don`t use a block. So my patch ignores callings by `super`. ## corner cases There are several cases to use block without (1)-(4) rules. ### `Proc.new/proc/lambda` without a block Now it was deprecated in r66772 (commit:9f1fb0a17febc59356d58cef5e98db61a3c03550). Related discussion: [Bug #15539] ### `block_given?` `block_given?` expects block, but I believe we use it with `yield` or a block parameter. If you know the usecase without them, please tell us. ### `yield` in `eval` We can't know `yield` (or (3), (4) rule) in an `eval` evaluating string at calling time. ``` def foo eval('yield`) end foo{} # at calling time, # we can't know the method foo can accept a block or not. ``` So I added a warning to use `yield` in `eval` like that: `test.rb:4: warning: use yield in eval will not be supported in Ruby 3.` Workaround is use a block parameter explicitly. ``` def foo &b eval('b.call') end foo{ p :ok } ``` # Implementation Strategy is: * [compile time] introduce `iseq::has_yield` field and check it if the iseq (or child iseq) contains `yield` (or something) * [calling time] if block is given, check `iseq::has_yield` flag and show warning (or raise an exception) https://gist.github.com/ko1/c9148ad0224bf5befa3cc76ed2220c0b On this patch, now it raises an error to make it easy to detect. It is easy to switch to show the warning. # Evaluation and discussion I tried to avoid ruby's tests. https://gist.github.com/ko1/37483e7940cdc4390bf8eb0001883786 Here is a patch. There are several patterns to avoid warnings. ## tests for `block_given?`, `Proc.new` (and similar) without block Add a dummy block parameter. It is test-specific issue. ## empty `each` Some tests add `each` methods do not `yield`, like: `def each; end`. Maybe test-specific issue, and adding a dummy block parameter. ## Subtyping / duck typing https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/c01a5ee85e2d6a7128cccafb143bfa694284ca87/… This `parse` method doesn't use `yield`, but other sub-type's `parse` methods use. ## `super` with `new` method https://gist.github.com/ko1/37483e7940cdc4390bf8eb0001883786#file-tests-pat… This method override `Class#new` method and introduce a hook with block (yield a block in this hook code). https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/trunk/lib/rubygems/package/tar_writer.rb#… In this method, call `super` and it also passing a block. However, called `initialize` doesn't use a block. ## Change robustness This change reduce robustness for API change. `Delegator` requires to support `__getobj__` for client classes. Now `__getobj__` should accept block but most of `__getobj__` clients do not call given block. https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/trunk/lib/delegate.rb#L80 This is because of delegator.rb's API change. https://gist.github.com/ko1/37483e7940cdc4390bf8eb0001883786#file-tests-pat… Nobu says calling block is not required (ignoring a block is no problem) so it is not a bug for delegator client classes. ## Found issues. ``` [ 2945/20449] Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply = 0.00 s 1) Error: Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "with_timeout" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:787) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:635:in `test_do_reply' [ 2946/20449] Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply_local = 0.00 s 2) Error: Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply_local: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "with_timeout" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:787) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:657:in `test_do_reply_local' [10024/20449] TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platform_mswin = 0.01 s 3) Error: TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platform_mswin: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "util_set_arch" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/lib/rubygems/test_case.rb:1053) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rubygems/test_gem_request_set_gem_dependency_api.rb:655:in `test_platform_mswin' [10025/20449] TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platforms = 0.01 s 4) Error: TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platforms: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "util_set_arch" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/lib/rubygems/test_case.rb:1053) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rubygems/test_gem_request_set_gem_dependency_api.rb:711:in `test_platforms' ``` These 4 detection show the problem. `with_timeout` method (used in Rinda test) and `util_set_arch` method (used in Rubygems test) simply ignore the given block. So these tests are simply ignored. I reported them. (https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/issues/2601) ## raise an error or show a warning? At least, Ruby 2.7 should show warning for this kind of violation with `-w`. How about for Ruby3? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:117568] [Ruby master Misc#20434] Deprecate regular expression modifiers
by kddnewton (Kevin Newton) 18 Apr '24

18 Apr '24

Issue #20434 has been reported by kddnewton (Kevin Newton). ---------------------------------------- Misc #20434: Deprecate regular expression modifiers https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20434 * Author: kddnewton (Kevin Newton) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- This is a follow-up to @duerst's comment here: https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20406#note-6. As noted in the other issue, there are many encodings that factor in to how a regular expression operates. This includes: * The encoding of the file * The encoding of the string parts within the regular expression * The regular expression encoding modifiers * The encoding of the string being matched At the time the modifiers were introduced, I believe the modifiers may have been the only (??) encoding that factored in here. At this point, however, they can lead to quite a bit of confusion, as noted in the other ticket. I would like to propose to deprecate the regular expression encoding modifiers. Instead, we could suggest in a warning to instead create a regular expression with an encoded string. For example, when we find: ```ruby /\x81\x40/s ``` we would instead suggest: ```ruby ::Regexp.new(::String.new("\x81\x40", encoding: "Windows-31J")) ``` or equivalent. As a migration path, we could do the following: 1. Emit a warning to change to the suggested expression 2. Change the compiler to compile to the suggested expression when those flags are found 3. Remove support for the flags Step 2 may be unnecessary depending on how long of a timeline we would like to provide. To be clear, I'm not advocating for any particular timeline, and would be fine with this being multiple years/versions to give plenty of time for people to migrate. But I do think this would be a good change to eliminate confusion about the interaction between the four different encodings at play. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:117598] [Ruby master Feature#15554] warn/error passing a block to a method which never use a block
by Eregon (Benoit Daloze) 18 Apr '24

18 Apr '24

Issue #15554 has been updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze). With the example from @mame, I think adding `(&)` or `(&on_missing)` for `Attribute::Attribute#value` would be good to clarify the value method can receive a block, and purposefully ignores it. To me it sounds weird that there are method overrides for the same method with "different" signatures. In fact if it was a positional or keyword argument instead of a block argument, one would already need to add e.g. `def value(arg = nil/*/kw: nil/**)` for `Attribute::Attribute#value`. So I think it's good to treat a block argument closer to positional or keyword arguments in this aspect. I understand the other arguments too, notably it does not make the code more beautiful but I think it makes the code clearer. This is clearly to some amount subjective. I suspect it will be very difficult to change matz's opinion on this, at least this feature should still detect some ignored blocks bugs. One more idea is we could emit a different warning message for the cases that would be excluded by the global method name ignore. Then people could easily filter these specific warnings (and keep other block ignored warnings enabled) if they don't want to address that, but would otherwise be able to see all ignored block warnings and address them. ---------------------------------------- Feature #15554: warn/error passing a block to a method which never use a block https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15554#change-108007 * Author: ko1 (Koichi Sasada) * Status: Closed * Assignee: matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto) ---------------------------------------- # Abstract Warn or raise an ArgumentError if block is passed to a method which does not use a block.

Now `__getobj__` should accept block but most of `__getobj__` clients do not call given block. https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/trunk/lib/delegate.rb#L80 This is because of delegator.rb's API change. https://gist.github.com/ko1/37483e7940cdc4390bf8eb0001883786#file-tests-pat… Nobu says calling block is not required (ignoring a block is no problem) so it is not a bug for delegator client classes. ## Found issues. ``` [ 2945/20449] Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply = 0.00 s 1) Error: Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "with_timeout" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:787) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:635:in `test_do_reply' [ 2946/20449] Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply_local = 0.00 s 2) Error: Rinda::TestRingServer#test_do_reply_local: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "with_timeout" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:787) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rinda/test_rinda.rb:657:in `test_do_reply_local' [10024/20449] TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platform_mswin = 0.01 s 3) Error: TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platform_mswin: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "util_set_arch" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/lib/rubygems/test_case.rb:1053) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rubygems/test_gem_request_set_gem_dependency_api.rb:655:in `test_platform_mswin' [10025/20449] TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platforms = 0.01 s 4) Error: TestGemRequestSetGemDependencyAPI#test_platforms: ArgumentError: passing block to the method "util_set_arch" (defined at /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/lib/rubygems/test_case.rb:1053) is never used. /home/ko1/src/ruby/trunk/test/rubygems/test_gem_request_set_gem_dependency_api.rb:711:in `test_platforms' ``` These 4 detection show the problem. `with_timeout` method (used in Rinda test) and `util_set_arch` method (used in Rubygems test) simply ignore the given block. So these tests are simply ignored. I reported them. (https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/issues/2601) ## raise an error or show a warning? At least, Ruby 2.7 should show warning for this kind of violation with `-w`. How about for Ruby3? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:117341] [Ruby master Feature#20396] ObjectSpace.dump_all(string_value: false): skip dumping the String contents
by byroot (Jean Boussier) 18 Apr '24

Issue #20396 has been reported by byroot (Jean Boussier). ---------------------------------------- Feature #20396: ObjectSpace.dump_all(string_value: false): skip dumping the String contents https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20396 * Author: byroot (Jean Boussier) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- `ObjectSpace.dump_all` is a very useful method to debug memory leaks and such, hence is frequently needed in production. But since all the 7bit strings content is included in the dump, it incur the risk of leaking personal data, or secrets. Also, in many case the strings content isn't that helpful and is just making the dump much bigger for no good reason. And only pure-ASCII strings are dumped this way, which means all the tools that process these dumps should already be compatible with a dump without any string content. ### Feature I propose to add another optional parameter to `dump_all`: `string_value: false`. When passed, no String content is ever dumped regardless of its coderange. Implementation: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/10382 cc @zzak -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
