Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto ee80a2ef26 mruby-compiler: replace accessor macros with direct member access
replaced all *_NODE_* accessor macros (e.g., SYM_NODE_VALUE,
INT_NODE_VALUE, CALL_NODE_METHOD) with direct member access using
casting macros (e.g., sym_node(n)->symbol, int_node(n)->value,
call_node(n)->method_name). this eliminates an unnecessary abstraction
layer and improves code readability by making field access explicit.

the accessor macros simply wrapped cast_func(n)->field, providing no
real benefit. direct member access makes it clear what field is being
accessed and reduces macro indirection.

affected files:
- node.h: removed ~100 accessor macro definitions
- codegen.c: replaced 19 macro uses with direct access
- parse.y: replaced 152 macro uses with direct access

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
