[ruby-core:103470] [Ruby master Feature#17398] SyntaxError in endless method

From: matz@...
Date: 2021-04-16 04:30:31 UTC
List: ruby-core #103470
Issue #17398 has been updated by matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto).

Backport deleted (2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN)
Tracker changed from Bug to Feature

Pros
* More intuitive / consistent / natural
Cons
* Duplicated syntax rules
* Even more complex syntax

If I were young, I would add @mame's patch. I did similar decisions many times in the past. But Ruby has been mature and complex, I now feel reluctant. Let us consider this idea for a while.

Matz.


----------------------------------------
Feature #17398: SyntaxError in endless method
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17398#change-91566

* Author: zverok (Victor Shepelev)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
This works:
```ruby
def foo() = puts("bar")
```

This does not:
```ruby
def foo() = puts "bar"
#                ^ syntax error, unexpected string literal, expecting `do' or '{' or '('
```

Is this intentional or accidental? Not sure how it is reasoned.
