Subject: [ruby-core:61730] [CommonRuby - Feature #9678] New heredoc syntax

Issue #9678 has been updated by Rodrigo Rosenfeld Rosas.


What should the scope for interpolation be?

~~~
def my_method
  a = 1
  b = <<:message
end

a = 2
message:
<< #{a}

my_method # what is the output?
~~~

----------------------------------------
For whatever it is worth, i've just had this idea of a new heredoc syntax for some programming language:

    class C
      def f(x)
        print >>Message1 + >>Message2
    Message1:
    > Literal text
    > ------------
    > Here text.
    >
    Message2:
    >> Text with interpolation and escapes
    >> -----------------------------------
    >> Here text with interpolation: #{ x }.
    >>
      end
    end
