Issue #19138 has been updated by schneems (Richard Schneeman).


I love the idea.

Instead of adding #line though if we could attach the source that would be more impactful for syntax search.

Some cases such as eval do not have source files, so if we could access the contents for casses without a path that would increase the capabilities of the gem.

----------------------------------------
Feature #19138: `SyntaxError#path` for syntax_suggest
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19138#change-100269

* Author: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
Currently syntax_suggest searches the path name from the exception message.
But extracting the info from messages for humans is fragile, I think.
So proposing a new method `SyntaxError#path`, similar to `LoadError#path`.

    Add `SyntaxError#path`

With this method, syntax_suggest/core_ext.rb will no longer need `PathnameFromMessage`.

Since we have not released with `SyntaxError#detailed_message` yet, there should not be a compatibility issue.

@schneems How do you think?
