Module: Internal::ByteDecoder

Included in:

Defined in:

lib/internal/vm/bytedecoder.rb

Overview

A module for decoding YARV bytecode.

This is actually pretty cool. It's actually a miniature VM, where the result of evaluating an expression is itself another expression. This turns out to be much simpler than a full ruby VM, but I think one could use this as a base for building one.

Example usage: env = Internal::ByteDecoder::Environment.new(is.local_table) is = RubyVM::InstructionSequence.new('1 + 1') is.bytedecode(env) env.expressions.each do |expr| puts expr end puts stack
