Looks like a bug in win32ole.rb: D:\M5\Merlin\Main\Languages\Ruby>ruby -w libs\win32ole.rb libs/win32ole.rb:63: warning: `&' interpreted as argument prefix
The default warning levels seem to be different when hosted. It would probably be better to set the default warning level on the same level as ir.exe/ruby does. Will fix both.

This is where I'm not sure if this is a bug. Do ScriptEngine and IR.exe (run interactively ONLY) have stricter parsing requirements? I investigated a bit further to get a simpler repro and found some interesting results. Fine processing the code directly: >ruby -e"b = lambda { |x| p x };result = [1,2].each &b" 1 2 >rbx -e"b = lambda { |x| p x };result = [1,2].each &b" 1 2 Argument error comes ONLY when running interactively (or through the ScriptEngine as shown above): >irb irb(main):001:0> b = lambda { |x| p x };result = [1,2].each &b 1 2 => [1, 2] >rbx IronRuby 0.9.1.0 on .NET 2.0.50727.3082 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. >>> b = lambda { |x| p x };result = [1,2].each &b unknown: `&' interpreted as argument prefix (Microsoft::Scripting::SyntaxErrorException) Again, fine through ir.exe interactive if I parameterize the block: b = lambda { |x| p x };result = [1,2].each(&b) Thanks Best Regards, Kevin _______________________________________________ Ironruby-core mailing list Ironruby-core@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ironruby-core _______________________________________________ Ironruby-core mailing list Ironruby-core@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ironruby-core
