Issue #6012 has been updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze). Right, I thought about that too but forgot to write it. Several gems have already adapted to this feature and their functionality and/or tests might rely on having the extra information, so it's definitely not great to remove this last minute. If https://github.com/ruby/prism/pull/3808 had been merged already we'd make the entire method unusable in Prism, which certainly sounds bad. I think we should do https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/15580 ---------------------------------------- Feature #6012: Proc#source_location also return the column https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6012#change-115726 * Author: rogerdpack (Roger Pack) * Status: Open * Assignee: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) ---------------------------------------- As originally suggested in http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-core/42418 Suggestion/feature request: have #source_location also return the beginning column where it was defined. ["test.rb", 8, 33] Thanks! -roger- -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
