Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto e02bb13d00 mruby-compiler: convert NODE_SUPER and NODE_ZSUPER to always use variable-sized nodes
- update NODE_ZSUPER to use mrb_ast_super_node instead of empty mrb_ast_zsuper_node
- convert new_super and new_zsuper to always create variable-sized nodes
- update call_with_block to handle NODE_SUPER/NODE_ZSUPER wrapped in NODE_VARIABLE
- inline codegen_super and codegen_zsuper into their gen_*_var functions
- remove traditional NODE_SUPER and NODE_ZSUPER cases from codegen

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
