I submitted a pull request to fix this: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/9512 ---------------------------------------- Bug #19975: ISeq#to_binary loses hidden local variable indices https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19975#change-106199 * Author: kddnewton (Kevin Newton) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- When you call `RubyVM::InstructionSequence#to_a`, you get hidden local variables as the index in the stack from the top: ``` c if (rb_id2str(lid)) { rb_ary_push(locals, ID2SYM(lid)); } else { /* hidden variable from id_internal() */ rb_ary_push(locals, ULONG2NUM(iseq_body->local_table_size-i+1)); } ``` ``` rb RubyVM::InstructionSequence.compile("for foo in bar; end").to_a[13][4][2][10] # => [2] ``` When you call `RubyVM::InstructionSequence#to_binary`, it dumps hidden local variables as 0: ``` c if (id == 0 || rb_id2name(id) == NULL) { return 0; } return ibf_dump_object(dump, rb_id2sym(id)); ``` When it reads that back in and then you call `to_a`, you get `:#arg_rest`: ``` ruby RubyVM::InstructionSequence.load_from_binary(RubyVM::InstructionSequence.compile("for foo in bar; end").to_binary).to_a[13][4][2][10] # => [:"#arg_rest"] ``` This means you end up not being able to consistently look at the locals. Instead, when reading back in from binary it could replace it with the index so that it matches up with the value before it is dumped to binary. Could we do that so that `#to_a` is consistent no matter where the iseq came from? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ ______________________________________________ ruby-core mailing list -- ruby-core@ml.ruby-lang.org To unsubscribe send an email to ruby-core-leave@ml.ruby-lang.org ruby-core info -- https://ml.ruby-lang.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/ruby-core.ml.ruby-lang.org/
