Issue #21875 has been updated by matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto). OK, I agree. Keep as it is. We cannot ignore the semantic difference between `|a,|` and `|a,b,|`. Matz. ---------------------------------------- Feature #21875: Handling of trailing commas in lambda parameters https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/21875#change-116732 * Author: Earlopain (Earlopain _) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19107 was accepted, which is about trailing commands in method definitions. lambdas were not explicitly mentioned but I wanted to confirm how they should behave with a trailing comma. Or if a trailing comma should even be accepted for them. It's not clear to me since lambdas sometimes behave like blocks and sometimes more like methods. `->(...) {}` for example is syntax invalid (same as in blocks) but they do check their arity with blocks don't do. If a trailing comma is accepted it can either * be implicit splat like in `foo do |bar,|; end` or `foo do |bar|; end`. It would also mean that the trailing comma is only allowed after a positional argument. * Just be ignored and be accepted in most places like for method definitions. The first option would be rather useless in regards to https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19107 when you just want to add the comma for cleaner diffs. But I guess for lambdas this happens very rarely anyways. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
