Still rbconfig.rb, and therefore `RbConfig::CONFIG["UNICODE_VERSION"]`, says that the Unicode version is 14.0.0. There seems to be a missing dependency of rbconfig.rb on common.mk somewhere in the makefiles, please add such a dependency. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:111201] [Ruby master Feature#10343] Postfix notations for `when` and `else` inside `case` statement
by sawa (Tsuyoshi Sawada) 04 Dec '22

04 Dec '22

Issue #10343 has been updated by sawa (Tsuyoshi Sawada). After eight years, I still think this would be a good feature. Any opinions? ---------------------------------------- Feature #10343: Postfix notations for `when` and `else` inside `case` statement https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10343#change-100492 * Author: sawa (Tsuyoshi Sawada) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- In a `case` statement, the condition part in the branches do not have the same length in general, and especially, `else` is much shorter than the conditions (`when ...`). So when we write the condition and the return value in a single line, they are not aligned, and are hard to read. ```ruby case foo when some_very_long_condition then "a" when short_cond then "bb" when some_long_condition then "ccc" else "dddd" end ``` I propose to allow postfix notations with `when` and `else` (or `otherwise`) inside `case` statement as below: ```ruby case foo "a" when some_very_long_proc "bb" when short_regex "ccc" when some_long_regex "dddd" else end ``` Pros are: 1) Postfix notation does not require `then` or `;`, so it is concise. 2) The return values from the branches (e.g., `"a"`, `"bb"`, `"ccc"`, `"dddd"`) tend to be shorter and more uniformly lengthened than the conditions, hence they are somewhat close to being aligned naturally, making this easier to read. 3) We are usually more interested in the return value than the condition of a branch, especially when we are reading someone's code and are trying to grasp what the `case` statement does or returns. 4) This notation is closer to case-like conditional notations regularly used in mathematics: ``` ┌ 1 (x = 0) x! = │ └ x (x - 1)! (otherwise) ``` So it would be easier to read for those who are familiar with mathematics. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

But I have a problem with ruby-3.2.0 previews. Looks like iseq is missing `insns_info`s. It works fine in with pre-3.2 rubies but seems something has changed and I can't figure out - what exactly. It looks like this: ![](clipboard-202212031723-don1h.png) You may see that body, supposed to be a pointer to `iseq_insn_info_entry` contains some 0x7 pointing nowhere. And `size` for `insns_info` in all `iseq` I can find with iterating objspace is zero. ---Files-------------------------------- clipboard-202212031723-don1h.png (375 KB) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

No, it doesn't. It means "please initialize **the newly created instance** with whatever is passed here as the value of `@foo`." In general, Ruby code `foo.bar(baz)` translates to English as "do bar to foo using baz", not "foo does bar to baz." ---------------------------------------- Feature #17942: Add a `initialize(public @a, private @b)` shortcut syntax for defining public/private accessors for instance vars as part of constructor https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17942#change-100480 * Author: TylerRick (Tyler Rick) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- This proposal builds on the proposed `initialize(@a, @b)` instance var assignment shortcut syntax described in #15192. 1. It allows you to add an *optional* `public`/`protected`/`private` modifier before any instance var parameter. Doing so automatically defines *accessor methods* (with the given access modifier; equivalent to `attr_accessor` inside of a `public`/`protected`/`private` block) for the instance var it precedes. 2. If the visibility modifier is omitted, then it defaults to automatically _no_ getter/setter methods for that instance var (it _only_ does an assignment of that already-private instance var). ## Parameter properties in TypeScript language This is inspired by TypeScript's `constructor(public a, private b)` syntax, which allows you to write this ([REPL](https://www.typescriptlang.org/play?#code/MYGwhgzhAEBiD29oG8BQ0PWPAdh…) ```js class Foo { constructor(public a:number, public b:number, private c:number) { } } ``` instead of this: ```js class Foo { constructor(a, b, c) { this.a = a; this.b = b; this.c = c; } } ``` (The `public`/`private` access modifiers actually disappear in the transpiled JavaScript code because it's only the TypeScript compiler that enforces those access modifiers, and it does so at *compile* time rather than at run time.) Further reading: - https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/2/classes.html#parameter-prope… - https://basarat.gitbook.io/typescript/future-javascript/classes#define-usin… - https://kendaleiv.com/typescript-constructor-assignment-public-and-private-… ## Differences from TypeScript I propose adding a similar feature to Ruby, but with following differences from TypeScript: 1. Use **`@a`** instead of bare `a`. This makes it *much* clearer that you are assigning directly to instance variables instead of to locals. - Rationale: The `@` is actually _part_ of the instance variable name, and is inseparable from it. (This is also consistent with how the `#` is part of the name itself in JavaScript's [(Private instance fields)](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/….) - (`public a` would be a syntax error because there's no such thing as access modifiers for locals. Okay, I guess there's no such thing as access modifiers for instance vars either, which is why...) 1. Make the syntax for ***assigning*** to instance vars (`@a`) (the proposal in #15192) and defining ***accessor methods*** for those instance vars (`public`/`private`) separate/distinct. - In other words, rather than make the `public`/`private` keywords a *required* part of the syntax like it is for TypeScript [parameter properties](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/2/classes.html#par…, you could omit the modifier and it would still do the instance var _assignment*. - The `public`/`private` access modifiers be an additional (*optional*) shortcut when you want to add an ***accessor method*** in *addition* to doing an ***assignment*** . - Unlike Java and TypeScript where you _can_ add access modifiers to instance variables, in Ruby, `public`/`private` _can't_ be applied to instance variables (direct access is only possible from within the instance). So if we're going to allow a `public`/`private` modifier here at all, They _must_ refer to methods, specifically accessor methods for those instance variables. 1. Keep it **private** by default (which of course `@a` by itself implies—it _is_ private unless you add a public accessor). - (Rather than make it `public` by default like it is in TypeScript.) - Keeping instance variables completely private is probably what people will want most of the time, and we should optimize the ergonomics for the most common case. - Private is a safer default, and should be assumed unless you explicitly ask for a public accessor to be added. - I bet TypeScript made the `public` the default mostly to be consistent with JavaScript (which TypeScript compiles to): JavaScript (along with other languages like Java) allows direct access (no getter/setter neede) to instance properties/variables from objects outside the instance. JavaScript doesn't even _have_ a way to make instance variables private (but hopefully will soon with this [proposal](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-private-methods) to add `#a` syntax for private properties). So this: ```ruby class Thing def initialize(public @a, public @b, @c) end end ``` would be equivalent to this: ```ruby class Thing attr_accessor :a, :b def initialize(a, b, c) @a = a @b = b @c = c end ``` ## How is `initialize(private @a)` different from `initialize(@a)`? Even though `@a` by itself is already private... 1. This defines a private accessor for that instance var, which lets you write `self.a =` instead of `@a =` (if you want). 2. Having a concise way to do that is helpful, for example if you want to make it a matter of practice/policy to only set an instance variable by going through its *setter method*. (See [discussion here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25571642/ruby-private-and-public-….) Why not just use `initialize(private @a)` to be consistent with TypeScript spec? - TypeScript's `public`/`private` is not standard JavaScript. In fact, if the [private methods/fields proposal](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-private-methods) had existed when TypeScript added [parameter properties](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/2/classes.html#par…, I'd like to think that they might have actually *made use* of the new `#b` syntax and gone with a terser syntax like `constructor(public a, #b)` instead of ``constructor(public a, private b)`. ## Upsides of this proposal 1. Removes even more boilerplate (all those `attr_accessor` lines), much of the time ## Downsides of this proposal 1. Only provides a way to define both getter and setter at once. Doesn't provide a way to _just_ define a getter and not a setter, for example. - Doesn't seem like a big deal, however. You can just not use this feature and define the getter with `attr_reader :a` instead. Or define private getter/setter with `private @a` and then override with `attr_reader :a` to add a public getter (while keeping the private setter). -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:111195] [Ruby master Bug#19144] Ruby should set AI_V4MAPPED | AI_ADDRCONFIG getaddrinfo flags by default
by kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis) 03 Dec '22

03 Dec '22

Issue #19144 has been updated by kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis). A gentle poke to see if anybody has some thoughts on this? ---------------------------------------- Bug #19144: Ruby should set AI_V4MAPPED | AI_ADDRCONFIG getaddrinfo flags by default https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19144#change-100478 * Author: kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Backport: 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Currently, DNS lookups made with `getaddrinfo` from Ruby (i.e. not from the `Resolv` module) cause both A and AAAA DNS requests to be made, even on systems that don’t actually have an IPv6 address that could possibly make the AAAA response useful. I wouldn’t _really_ care about this, normally, but glibc has a bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/1961697) which can cause a 5-second delay in DNS lookups when both A and AAAA records are queried in parallel. This bug is fixed in glibc upstream but still present in some LTS linux distros (Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04 at least), so I think it’s worthwhile to try and work around it in circumstances where the AAAA request is pointless anyway. The dual A/AAAA lookup happens because whenever Ruby calls getaddrinfo to perform DNS lookups, it always sets `hints`, and sets `hints->ai_flags` to zero by default unless flags are specified by the caller (e.g. `AI_PASSIVE` is set when binding a TCP server socket in `TCPServer.new`). This matches the default value of `ai_flags` specified by POSIX, which is zero. However, glibc behaves differently. When glibc’s `getaddrinfo` function is called with `NULL` for the `hints` parameter, it defaults the `ai_flags` value to `(AI_V4MAPPED | AI_ADDRCONFIG)`. The manpage (from the Linux man-pages project - https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/getaddrinfo.3.html) claims “this is an improvement on the standard” (although I couldn’t find this mentioned in the glibc manual itself). Of course, we’re not _actually_ ever calling `getaddrinfo` with NULL `hints`; so, we never actually use these flags on glibc systems (unless they’re explicitly specified by the caller). My proposal is that we should change Ruby to set these two flags by default, when they’re available, in the following circumstances: * In all calls made internally to `rsock_getaddrinfo` as a result of socket functions like `TCPSocket.new`, `UDPSocket.new`, etc. * EXCEPT when `AI_PASSIVE` is also set (i.e. when we’re trying to get an address to bind for listener socket - see below) * In calls made to `rsock_getaddrinfo` as a direct result of calling `Addrinfo.getaddrinfo` from Ruby with nil flags * EXCEPT calls to `Addrinfo.getaddrinfo` where explicit flags are provided Both of these seem like something you would almost always want to be doing in any outgoing connection scenario: * `AI_V4MAPPED` ensures that, if AF_INET6 is explicitly specified as the desired protocol, and there is no AAAA record in DNS, that any A record that _is_ present gets converted to an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address so it can be used e.g. with NAT64. * `AI_ADDRCONFIG` ensures that, if a machine has no IPv6 address, it doesn’t bother making an AAAA lookup that will return IPv6 addresses that can’t actually be used for anything (and vice versa for IPv4). The reason why we wouldn’t want to set `AI_ADDRCONFIG` in circumstances where Ruby currently sets `AI_PASSIVE` is that loopback addresses are not considered in deciding if a system has an IPv4/IPv6 address. Conceivably, you might want to bind to a `::1` loopback address, and allow other processes on the same machine to connect to that. Does changing this default sound reasonable? If so I can prepare a patch. Another option I considered is doing this _only_ when Ruby is built against glibc (so that other system behaviour is most closely matched). -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

If you can not attend, other attendees can ask instead of you (if attendees can understand your issue). - We will write a record of the discussion in the file or to each ticket in English. - All activities are best-effort (keep in mind that most of us are volunteer developers). - The date, time and place of the meeting are scheduled according to when/where we can reserve Matz's time. - *DO NOT* discuss then on this ticket, please. # Call for agenda items If you have a ticket that you want matz and committers to discuss, please post it into this ticket in the following format: ``` * [Ticket ref] Ticket title (your name) * Comment (A summary of the ticket, why you put this ticket here, what point should be discussed, etc.) ``` Example: ``` * [Feature #14609] `Kernel#p` without args shows the receiver (ko1) * I feel this feature is very useful and some people say :+1: so let discuss this feature. ``` - It is recommended to add a comment by 2022/12/12. We hold a preparatory meeting to create an agenda a few days before the dev-meeting. - The format is strict. We'll use [this script to automatically create an markdown-style agenda](https://gist.github.com/mame/b0390509ce1491b43610b9ebb665eb86). We may ignore a comment that does not follow the format. - Your comment is mandatory. We cannot read all discussion of the ticket in a limited time. We appreciate it if you could write a short summary and update from a previous discussion. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:111180] [Ruby master Feature#19000] Data: Add "Copy with changes method" [Follow-on to #16122 Data: simple immutable value object]

Issue #19000 has been updated by RubyBugs (A Nonymous). > …treats unknown keywords passed to this method as an error. I had already made it clear that I thought it should be an error at the end of my message earlier in this thread … and I think we are all in agreement on this point in this thread. **+1** agreement on treating unknown keywords as error! :-) ---------------------------------------- Feature #19000: Data: Add "Copy with changes method" [Follow-on to #16122 Data: simple immutable value object] https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19000#change-100464 * Author: RubyBugs (A Nonymous) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- *As requested: extracted a follow-up to #16122 Data: simple immutable value object from [this comment](http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-core/109815)* # Proposal: Add a "Copy with changes" method to Data Assume the proposed `Data.define` exists. Seeing examples from the [[Values gem]](https://github.com/ms-ati/Values): ```ruby require "values" # A new class Point = Value.new(:x, :y) # An immutable instance Origin = Point.with(x: 0, y: 0) # Q: How do we make copies that change 1 or more values? right = Origin.with(x: 1.0) up = Origin.with(y: 1.0) up_and_right = right.with(y: up.y) # In loops movements = [ [ :x, +0.5 ], [ :x, +0.5 ], [ :y, -1.0 ], [ :x, +0.5 ], ] # position = Point(x: 1.5, y: -1.0) position = movements.inject(Origin) do |p, (field, delta)| p.with(field => p.send(field) + delta) end ``` ## Proposed detail: Call this method: `#with` ```ruby Money = Data.define(:amount, :currency) account = Money.new(amount: 100, currency: 'USD') transactions = [+10, -5, +15] account = transactions.inject(account) { |a, t| a.with(amount: a.amount + t) } #=> Money(amount: 120, currency: "USD") ``` ## Why add this "Copy with changes" method to the Data simple immutable value class? Called on an instance, it returns a new instance with only the provided parameters changed. This API affordance is now **widely adopted across many languages** for its usefulness. Why is it so useful? Because copying immutable value object instances, with 1 or more discrete changes to specific fields, is the proper and ubiquitous pattern that takes the place of mutation when working with immutable value objects. **Other languages** C# Records: “immutable record structs — Non-destructive mutation” — is called `with { ... }` https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/builtin-t… Scala Case Classes — is called `#copy` https://docs.scala-lang.org/tour/case-classes.html Java 14+ Records — Brian Goetz at Oracle is working on adding a with copy constructor inspired by C# above as we speak, likely to be called `#with` https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/amber-spec-experts/2022-June/003461.html Rust “Struct Update Syntax” via `..` syntax in constructor https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch05-01-defining-structs.html#creating-insta… ## Alternatives Without a copy-with-changes method, one must construct entirely new instances using the constructor. This can either be (a) fully spelled out as boilerplate code, or (b) use a symmetrical `#to_h` to feed the keyword-args constructor. **(a) Boilerplate using constructor** ```ruby Point = Data.define(:x, :y, :z) Origin = Point.new(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, z: 0.0) change = { z: -1.5 } # Have to use full constructor -- does this even work? point = Point.new(x: Origin.x, y: Origin.y, **change) ``` **(b) Using a separately proposed `#to_h` method and constructor symmetry** ```ruby Point = Data.define(:x, :y, :z) Origin = Point.new(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, z: 0.0) change = { z: -1.5 } # Have to use full constructor -- does this even work? point = Point.new(**(Origin.to_h.merge(change))) ``` Notice that the above are not ergonomic -- leading so many of our peer language communities to adopt the `#with` method to copy an instance with discrete changes. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
