Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto f4fe87c11e mruby-compiler: remove cons-list support for NODE_BREAK, NODE_NEXT, NODE_REDO, NODE_RETRY
These node types always generate variable-sized nodes, so the cons-list
codegen support is no longer needed. This change:

codegen.c:
- Moves logic from codegen_break/next/redo/retry into gen_*_var functions
- Removes cons-list switch cases for these four node types
- Removes the now-unused codegen_break/next/redo/retry functions

parse.y:
- Updates call_with_block to handle NODE_BREAK and NODE_NEXT through
  NODE_VARIABLE case instead of cons-list cases
- Removes the now-unused cons-list cases for these node types

All control flow functionality remains identical, but the code path is
simplified since these nodes exclusively use variable-sized structures.

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
