From: John Micheal Date: 2008-06-09T20:09:55+09:00 Subject: AST for ruby code Hi! I want AST for the following code as it is given below. I have install ruby_parser 1.0 on my system. We are able to parse string using "RubyParser.new.parse("1+1 = 2")" and the result is " s(:str, "1+1=2")". But how I can parse the full source file(given below)? Further, whenever I try to parse the string containing class or def in it, it gives error (it means, it is parsing C code not ruby) I have also attached the screenshot for this problem. Please also guide us in this mater. Ruby Code: ....................readfile.rb class TestClass def method1(a,b) sum = a + b puts sum end def method2(*c) l = c.length puts l end end Desired AST Tree: .................... s(:class, :TestClass, s(:const, :Object), s(:defn, :method1, s(:scope, s(:block, s(:args, :a, :b), s(:lasgn, :sum, s(:call, s(:lvar, :a), :+, s(:array, s(:lvar, :b)))), s(:fcall, :puts, s(:array, s(:lvar, :sum)))))), s(:defn, :method2, s(:scope, s(:block, s(:args, :"*c"), s(:lasgn, :l, s(:call, s(:lvar, :c), :length)), s(:fcall, :puts, s(:array, s(:lvar, :l))))))) Attachments: http://www.ruby-forum.com/attachment/2131/error.GIF -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
