Hi--
I managed to generalize my 'rubytest' this afternoon into a nice
general purpose comment code block runner. It defaults to unit tests,
but you can use if for any variety of embedded code such as examples.
I'm sure this can be improved upon. For instance the current version
doesn't deal with #-style comments, but only =begin...=end blocks. Let
me know if you have any other suggestions.
I do have one pressing issue though. I came up with two ways to run the
code. 1) using eval, and 2) using a pipe. The first is better b/c I can
maintain the line numbers, so that error reports point to the right
place. OTOH the second way allows all the normal command line options
that ruby handles to be passed along. I would like to achieve both of
these rather than one or the other. Both methdos are presented in the
code below. Any ideas on how to fix?
Hope you all like and find this useful. It will be included in the next
release of my build tools.
Thanks,
T.
