Behavior of calling method with a hash varaible

[bamchoh]

Excuse me, I'd like to know if this is a specification for mruby or not.

When I executed below code, mruby raises exception.

Code:

def foo(bar)
    p bar
end

foo :var1 => :a

Output:

trace (most recent call last):
        [1] ..\..\scripts\test2.rb:5
..\..\scripts\test2.rb:1:in foo: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 1) (ArgumentError)

However, in ruby 3.2.0, it works

Output (ruby 3.2.0):

{"var1"=>"a"}

Is this behavior mruby's specification?

It's a bug. But I recommend wrapping hash arguments with braces, e.g. foo({:var1=>:a}), to disambiguate with keyword arguments.

Thank you for response. I understood my code is ambiguate and revised my code with your suggestion, then it works fine. Thank you very much :)

It's still a bug to be fixed.
