ta = Rake::TaskArguments.new([:a, :b, :c], [1, 2, 3])
Currently
puts ta # {:a=>1, :b=>2, :c=>3}
Proposal
puts ta # #<Rake::TaskArguments a: 1, b: 2, c: 3>
Why?
The current implementation leads one to believe they are working with a hash. This can lead to some confusion if you try doing something like
ta.a = 'one'
which will silently ignore the assignment.In addition, I think
def_method
is preferable tomethod_missing
to create accessors. That wayta.a = 'one'
would generate aNoMethodError
. Thoughts?Shoutout to @eric-hu, with whom I discovered this issue.
