Subject: ragel and ruby



Hi,

I've been trying to generate ruby with ragel. But the generated code
is complaing about undefined local variables

Here an excerpt of the generated code:

  class MyParser
  
    # more generated code here ...
  
    class << self
      attr_accessor :mymachine_start
    end
  
    # and here ...
  
    def parse(input)
  
      # ...
  
      begin
        cs = mymachine_start
      end
  
      # ...
  
    end
  
  end

If I prepend 'type.', which is deprecated, I know, it works for this
case. But there are other accessor that are being set private, e. g.

  attr_accessor :_mymachine_trans_actions_wi
  private :_mymachine_trans_actions_wi, :_mymachine_trans_actions_wi=

How is this mean to work?

And why isn't an accessor set at class level not accessible from within
an instance of this class in the first place?
