In Ruby 1.8.7 it is possible to do such thing:
pr = Proc.new do |arg, &block|
block.call
end
pr.call(123) do puts “xyz” end
xyz
=> nil
When calling proc another block can be given as parameter.
Is there any way to do it in Ruby 1.8.6 ?
Not working:
irb(main):001:0> aba = Proc.new do |arg, &block|
irb(main):002:1* end
SyntaxError: compile error
(irb):1: syntax error, unexpected tAMPER, expecting ‘|’
aba = Proc.new do |arg, &block|

Working, but i want to avoid this solution:
irb(main):007:0> pr.call 123, Proc.new{puts “xyz”}
xyz
=> nil
irb(main):008:0>
I hope you people know some cool workaround.
My application is currently running on Ruby 1.8.7 but i would like to
use REE instead and right now this is the only issue that stops me from
it.
