Subject: [ruby-core:55600] [ruby-trunk - Feature #8563] Instance variable arguments


Issue #8563 has been updated by phluid61 (Matthew Kerwin).


=begin
Question: would this be valid?

  def foo(@foo=@foo) end

Asking here, because #5825 as written only talks about initialize method, and the above construct wouldn't make sense there.

Feature #8563: Instance variable arguments

=begin
Often times, people want to assign given arguments to instance variables, especially inside the method `initialize`:

    def initialize foo, bar, buz
      @foo, @bar, @buz = foo, bar, buz
      ...
    end

I propose to let method definition take instance variables as arguments so that:

    def initialize @foo, @bar, @buz
      ...
    end

would be equivalent as above.
