Subject: [ruby-core:89477] [Ruby trunk Feature#15236] add support for hash shorthand
Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2018 14:16:55 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <redmine.journal-74518.20181019141654.809376da67ea666f@ruby-lang.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: redmine.issue-15236.20181019103301@ruby-lang.org

Issue #15236 has been updated by shevegen (Robert A. Heiler).


Matz wrote in the other thread the following:

"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.

Matz."

So I guess it could be discussed at another developer meeting in the future.

Feature #15236: add support for hash shorthand
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15236#change-74518

* Author: ignatiusreza (Ignatius Reza Lesmana)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal

----------------------------------------
PR in github: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/1990

inspired by javascript support for object literal shorthand notation `{ a }`, which will be expanded into `{ a: a }`..

to avoid ambiguity, this shorthand is only supported when hash is defined with `{ }` notation.. in other situation where the brackets is optional, e.g. function call, we still need to write it in full (`m(a : a)` instead of `m(a)`, or `m(a, b, c: c)` instead of `m(a, b, c)`..
