[ruby-core:97089] [Ruby master Feature#16615] Group style access scope for macros

From: shevegen@...
Date: 2020-02-07 12:48:37 UTC
List: ruby-core #97089
Issue #16615 has been updated by shevegen (Robert A. Heiler).


The suggestion is fairly short; might help to expand a bit, in particular why it would be
necessary/useful.

Two comments from me in regards to the proposal:

1) Is there a defining difference towards e. g. the attr* family? Perhaps I missed this
in the proposal, but it should be remembered, even more so as this may become a question
to newcomers for ruby - see the old questio about "Symbol versus String" and strange 
add-ons such as HashWithIndifferentAccess.

2) I believe the name "macro" is an awkward name. I am not sure that name should be added,
but even more importantly the relatedness to 1) should be considered. (The public versus
private distinction in ruby is not a strong one, due to ruby's dynamic nature and 
philosophy. I understand why the distinction is there, but personally I very, very 
rarely use public/private ever; if then mostly just to portray intention to others
in a libary, but even then I often wonder whether this is even necessary. I think it
then comes down a lot to the personal preferences of a given ruby user more than 
anything else.).

----------------------------------------
Feature #16615: Group style access scope for macros
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16615#change-84195

* Author: ted (Ted Johansson)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
Given a method `.macro`, which defines an instance method `#bar` on a class, and returns the defined method's name as a symbol (`:bar`).

```
class Foo

  private

  macro :bar # On evaluation defines a method and returns its name.
end
```

it would be neat if the dynamically defined instance method respected the scope in which its definition originated. (In this particular case `private`.)

Note: I am aware that inline access scopes already work for dynamically defined methods, as they merely accept a symbol as an argument.
