Feature #5142: Remove ruby-mode.el from ruby's repo

ruby-mode.el syntax highlighting breaks on regular expression with quotes

Added by slickrobert (Robert Smith) over 13 years ago. Updated almost 12 years ago.

Status:
Third Party's Issue
Target version:
ruby -v:
1.9.2-p180 revision 30909
Backport:
[ruby-core:38045]

Description

I am using 1.9.2-p160 revision 29036

If there are an odd number of quotation marks inside a regular expression, the syntax highlighting breaks, continuing the regular expression color until another quotation mark is found.

method /^"([^"]*)"$/ do |arg|

continues regular expression syntax color until quotation is matched

Syntax continues to work correctly with parentheses around the method, such as
method(/^"([^"]*)"$/) do |arg|

Searching led me to a related bug that was fixed: http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/4242

This is kinda-fixed in the Emacs trunk, provided that "method" is one of the names in the list ruby-syntax-methods-before-regexp.
Otherwise, the whole regexp literal isn't recognized in the first example. It should be obvious, the string-like highlighting would only start after the " character.
