Bug on ruby_parser gem?

Ruby
1

Hi there,

I think i just found a bug on ruby_parser gem on ruby 1.9.1

This is my code:

encoding: utf-8

require ‘rubygems’
require ‘ruby_parser’
parser = RubyParser.new

text =<<EOF

encoding: utf-8

#àèputs “text”

’

EOF
out = parser.process(text)
puts out.inspect

When I run the code on ruby 1.9.1p376 (2009-12-07 revision 26041)
[i386-darwin10.2.0] i get this error:

bash-3.2$ ruby test_parser.rb
/Users/andreag/.rvm/gems/ruby/1.9.1/gems/ruby_parser-2.0.4/lib/ruby_lexer.rb:381:in

process' from test_parser.rb:14:in’

On ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) and on jruby 1.4.0 (ruby
1.9.2dev trunk 24787) the output is:
s(:call, nil, :puts, s(:arglist, s(:str, “text”))) as expected.

Did I miss something or this is a real bug?

Ciao,
Andrea.

This looks like an incompatibility rather than a bug. As far as I
know, ruby_parser primarily supports 1.8, and I don’t know how much
testing has happened against 1.9. Either way, you should probably try
to report it…somewhere :slight_smile: I think ruby_parser is a great project to
have, since it allows equivalent parser support across all Ruby
implementations without any native code.

that somewhere is the parsetree project on rubyforge:
