Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto 0c25c0d95f mruby-compiler: refactor gen_string to use single loop
Eliminate code duplication in gen_string by using a single loop with
a first-element flag instead of separate first element processing.

The previous structure had ~20 lines of duplicated string literal and
expression processing logic. The refactored version uses a unified loop
that handles concatenation only for non-first elements, reducing code
duplication and improving maintainability.

Functionality remains identical - all string interpolation, regex
patterns, and heredoc processing work correctly.

mruby-compiler

This mrbgem provides the mruby compiler, which is responsible for parsing Ruby code and generating mruby bytecode.

Functionality

The mruby-compiler gem includes the following components:

  • Parser: Translates Ruby source code into an abstract syntax tree (AST).
  • Code Generator: Traverses the AST to produce executable mruby bytecode.
  • mrbc executable: A command-line tool for compiling .rb files into .mrb bytecode files.

Usage

The mrbc (mruby-bin-mrbc) executable will generate compiled binary from Ruby programs via this gem.

Example of using mrbc:

# Compile a Ruby script to bytecode
bin/mrbc my_script.rb

# Run the compiled script
bin/mruby my_script.mrb
