Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto 832c579f8e mruby-compiler: refactor lambda_body to take individual parameters
created lambda_body_ex that takes locals, args, and body as separate
parameters instead of a cons structure. this eliminates complex cons
cell navigation and makes the interface cleaner for variable-sized
nodes. updated all call sites (gen_def_var, gen_sdef_var, gen_block_var,
gen_lambda_var) to use lambda_body_ex directly.

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
