88

+ # Local variable depth
2
+
3
+ One feature of Prism is that it resolves local variables as it parses. It's necessary to do this because of ambiguities in the grammar. For example, consider the following code:
4
+
5
+ ```ruby
6
+ foo / bar#/
7
+ ```
8
+
9
+ If `foo` is a local variable, this is a call to `/` with `bar` as an argument, followed by a comment. If it's not a local variable, this is a method call to `foo` with a regular expression argument.
10
+
11
+ "Depth" refers to the number of visible scopes that Prism has to go up to find the declaration of a local variable.
12
+ Note that this follows the same scoping rules as Ruby, so a local variable is only visible in the scope it is declared in and in blocks nested in that scope.
13
+ The rules for calculating the depth are very important to understand because they may differ from individual Ruby implementations since they are not specified by the language.
14
+
15
+ Prism uses the minimum number of scopes, i.e., it only creates scopes when necessary semantically, in other words when there must be distinct scopes (which can be observed through `binding.local_variables`).
16
+ That are no "transparent/invisible" scopes in Prism.
17
+ Some Ruby implementations use those for some language constructs and need to adjust by maintaining a depth offset.
18
+
19
+ Below are the places where a local variable can be written/targeted, along with how the depth is calculated at that point.
20
+
21
+ ## General
22
+
23
+ In the course of general Ruby code when reading a local variable, the depth is equal to the number of scopes to go up to find the declaration of that variable. For example:
24
+
25
+ ```ruby
26
+ foo = 1
27
+ bar = 2
28
+ baz = 3
29
+
30
+ foo # depth 0
31
+ tap { bar } # depth 1
32
+ tap { tap { baz } } # depth 2
33
+ ```
34
+
35
+ This also includes writing to a local variable, which could be writing to a local variable that is already declared. For example:
36
+
37
+ ```ruby
38
+ foo = 1
39
+ bar = 2
40
+
41
+ foo = 3 # depth 0
42
+ tap { bar = 4 } # depth 1
43
+ ```
44
+
45
+ This includes multiple assignment, where the same principle applies. For example:
46
+
47
+ ```ruby
48
+ foo = 1
49
+ bar = 2
50
+
51
+ foo, bar = 3, 4 # depth 0
52
+ tap { foo, bar = 5, 6 } # depth 1
53
+ ```
54
+
55
+ ## `for` loops
56
+
57
+ `for` loops in Ruby break down to calls to `.each` with a block.
58
+ However in that case local variable reads and writes within the block will be in the same scope as the scope surrounding the `for` and not in a deeper/separate scope (surprising, but this is Ruby semantics).
59
+ For example:
60
+
61
+ ```ruby
62
+ foo = 1
63
+
64
+ for e in baz
65
+ foo # depth 0
66
+ bar = 2 # depth 0
67
+ end
68
+
69
+ p bar # depth 0, prints 2
70
+ ```
71
+
72
+ The local variable(s) used for the index of the `for` are also at the same depth (as variables inside and outside the `for`):
73
+
74
+ ```ruby
75
+ for e in [1, 2] # depth 0
76
+ e # depth 0
77
+ end
78
+
79
+ p e # depth 0, prints 2
80
+ ```
81
+
82
+ ## Pattern matching captures
83
+
84
+ You can target a local variable in a pattern matching expression using capture syntax. Using this syntax, you can target local variables in the current scope or in visible parent scopes. For example:
85
+
86
+ ```ruby
87
+ 42 => bar # depth 0
88
+ ```
89
+
90
+ The example above writes to a local variable in the current scope. If the variable is already declared in a higher visible scope, it will be written to that scope instead. For example:
91
+
92
+ ```ruby
93
+ foo = 1
94
+ tap { 42 => foo } # depth 1
95
+ ```
96
+
97
+ ## Named capture groups
98
+
99
+ You can target local variables through named capture groups in regular expressions if they are used on the left-hand side of a `=~` operator. For example:
100
+
101
+ ```ruby
102
+ /(?<foo>\d+)/ =~ "42" # depth 0
103
+ ```
104
+
105
+ This will write to a `foo` local variable. If the variable is already declared in a higher visible scope, it will be written to that scope instead. For example:
106
+
107
+ ```ruby
108
+ foo = 1
109
+ tap { /(?<foo>\d+)/ =~ "42" } # depth 1
110
+ ```
111
+
112
+ ## "interpolated once" regular expressions
113
+
114
+ Regular expressions that interpolate local variables (unrelated to capture group local variables) and have the `o` flag will only interpolate the local variables once for the runtime of the program.
115
+ In CRuby, this is implemented by compiling the regular expression within a nested instruction sequence, which means CRuby thinks the depth is one more than prism does. For example:
116
+
117
+ ```
118
+ $ ruby --dump=insns -e 'foo = 1; /#{foo}/o'
119
+ == disasm: #<ISeq:<main>@-e:1 (1,0)-(1,18)> (catch: false)
120
+ local table (size: 1, argc: 0 [opts: 0, rest: -1, post: 0, block: -1, kw: -1@-1, kwrest: -1])
121
+ [ 1] foo@0
122
+ 0000 putobject_INT2FIX_1_ ( 1)[Li]
123
+ 0001 setlocal_WC_0 foo@0
124
+ 0003 once block in <main>, <is:0>
125
+ 0006 leave
126
+
127
+ == disasm: #<ISeq:block in <main>@-e:1 (1,9)-(1,18)> (catch: false)
128
+ 0000 putobject "" ( 1)
129
+ 0002 getlocal_WC_1 foo@0
130
+ 0004 dup
131
+ 0005 objtostring <calldata!mid:to_s, argc:0, FCALL|ARGS_SIMPLE>
132
+ 0007 anytostring
133
+ 0008 toregexp 0, 2
134
+ 0011 leave
135
+ ```
136
+
137
+ In this case CRuby fetches the local variable with `getlocal_WC_1` as the second instruction to the "once" instruction sequence. When compiling CRuby, prism therefore will adjust the depth to account for this difference.
138
+
139
+ ## `rescue` clauses
140
+
141
+ In CRuby, `rescue` clauses are implemented as their own instruction sequence, and therefore CRuby thinks the depth is one more than prism does. For example:
142
+
143
+ ```
144
+ $ ruby --dump=insns -e 'begin; foo = 1; rescue; foo; end'
145
+ == disasm: #<ISeq:<main>@-e:1 (1,0)-(1,32)> (catch: true)
146
+ == catch table

+ | == disasm: #<ISeq:rescue in <main>@-e:1 (1,16)-(1,28)> (catch: true)

+ | local table (size: 1, argc: 0 [opts: 0, rest: -1, post: 0, block: -1, kw: -1@-1, kwrest: -1])

156
+ | 0010 leave
157
+ | 0011 getlocal_WC_0 $!@0
158
+ | 0013 throw 0
159
+ | catch type: retry st: 0004 ed: 0005 sp: 0000 cont: 0000

+ local table (size: 1, argc: 0 [opts: 0, rest: -1, post: 0, block: -1, kw: -1@-1, kwrest: -1])
162
+ [ 1] foo@0

+ 0000 putobject_INT2FIX_1_ ( 1)[Li]
164

165
+ 0002 setlocal_WC_0 foo@0
166
+ 0004 nop
167
+ 0005 leave
168
+ ```
169
+
170
+ In the catch table, CRuby is reading the `foo` local variable using `getlocal_WC_1` as the fifth instruction to the "rescue" instruction sequence. When compiling CRuby, prism therefore will adjust the depth to account for this difference.
171
+
172
+ Note that this includes the error reference, which can target local variables, as in:
173
+
174
+ ```
175
+ $ ruby --dump=insns -e 'foo = 1; begin; rescue => foo; end'

+ Note that CRuby is writing to the `foo` local variable using the `setlocal_WC_1` instruction as the sixth instruction to the "rescue" instruction sequence. When compiling CRuby, prism therefore will adjust the depth to account for this difference.

+ ## Post execution blocks
206

207
+ The `END {}` syntax allows executing code when the program exits. In CRuby, this is implemented as two nested instruction sequences. CRuby therefore thinks the depth is two more than prism does. For example:
208
+
209
+ ```
210
+ $ ruby --dump=insns -e 'foo = 1; END { foo }'
211
+ == disasm: #<ISeq:<main>@-e:1 (1,0)-(1,20)> (catch: false)

218

219
+ == disasm: #<ISeq:block in <main>@-e:0 (0,0)-(-1,-1)> (catch: false)
220
+ 0000 putspecialobject 1 ( 1)
221
+ 0002 send <calldata!mid:core#set_postexe, argc:0, FCALL>, block in <main>
222
+ 0005 leave
223
+
224
+ == disasm: #<ISeq:block in <main>@-e:1 (1,9)-(1,20)> (catch: false)
225
+ 0000 getlocal foo@0, 2 ( 1)[LiBc]
226
+ 0003 leave [Br]
227
+ ```
228
+
229
+ In the instruction sequence corresponding to the code that gets executed inside the `END` block, CRuby is reading the `foo` local variable using `getlocal` as the second instruction to the `"block in <main>"` instruction sequence. When compiling CRuby, prism therefore will adjust the depth to account for this difference.
