[ruby-core:69191] [Ruby trunk - Feature #11105] [Rejected] ES6-like hash literals

Issue #11105 has been updated by Yukihiro Matsumoto.

Status changed from Open to Rejected

I am not positive about this syntax mostly because it appears to be set syntax, or old style hash in 1.8.
Once ES6 syntax become more popular, there will be chance for this change in the future.

Why not support ECMAScript6-like hash literals?

For example,

    {x, y}

is equivalent to:

    {x: x, y: y}

For convenience, the prefix of global, instance, and class variables should be removed from the key name as follows:

    a = 1
    B = 2
    $c = 3
    @d = 4
    @@e = 5
    p({a, B, $c, @d, @@e, f: 6})
    #=> {:a=>1, :B=>2, :c=>3, :d=>4, :e=>5, :f=>6}
