Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto d1633160cc mruby-compiler: complete NODE_SCOPE migration to variable-sized nodes exclusively
Remove NODE_SCOPE case from main codegen() switch and migrate all node
creation to variable-sized nodes. Add node_type_p() helper for unified
node type checking across traditional and variable-sized nodes.

Key fixes:
- Use scope_node(node->cdr) pattern for NODE_VARIABLE wrapper extraction
- Update parser_update_cxt and mrb_parser_foreach_top_variable
- Add NODE_VARIABLE support to mrb_parser_dump for bintest compatibility
- Fix mirb local variable handling preventing TypeError on evaluation

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
