2019-10-10Document the difference between expressions and statements [ci skip]Jeremy Evans
In the grammar, all expressions are statements, but not all statements are expressions. Some parts of the grammar accept expressions and not other types of statements, which causes similar looking code to parse differently due to operator precedence. Mostly from Dan0042 (Daniel DeLorme). Fixes [Bug #16092]

2019-08-04Use the word heredocs in Here Documents docsOlivier Lacan
Two advantages: - higher relevance of the extremely common word "heredocs" which may help people find this page when searching for "ruby heredocs" - the anchor link becomes `#label-Here+Documents+-28heredocs-29`, which is ugly due to the parentheses but includes the word "heredocs" in the URL to this section If anyone knows a way to prevent RDoc from turning invalid characters into ugly and meaningless ASCII codes, I'm listening. I don't want to break existing anchor links but RDoc should really ignore these characters or turn them into dashes. Closes: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/2103

2019-04-29Disallow also CR in here-doc identifierNobuyoshi Nakada
* parse.y (heredoc_identifier): CR in here-document identifier might or might not result in a syntax error, by the EOL code. make a syntax error regardless of the EOL code.
2019-04-29parse.y: fix here-doc identifier with newlineNobuyoshi Nakada
* parse.y (heredoc_identifier): quoted here-document identifier must end within the same line. the only corner case that here-document identifier can contain a newline is that the closing qoute is placed at the beginning of the next line, and has been warned since 2.4. ```ruby <<"EOS " # warning: here document identifier ends with a newline EOS ```
