Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto e8096bf745 mruby-compiler: add brace-less hash pattern support
Add support for brace-less hash patterns at top level of case/in.
`in a: x, b: y` is now equivalent to `in {a: x, b: y}`.
`in a:, b:` shorthand now works with newlines (CRuby compatible).

Changes:
- Add EXPR_VALUE to IS_LABEL_POSSIBLE() to recognize labels after `in`
- Add brace-less hash pattern rules to p_expr
- Change p_hash_elem to use p_as instead of p_expr to avoid recursion
- Add in_kwarg flag to parser state for pattern matching context
- Set in_kwarg in lexer when keyword_in is returned
- Use EXPR_ARG after tLABEL_TAG when in_kwarg is set (makes newlines significant)

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
