[ruby-core:57967] [ruby-trunk - Feature #9043][Open] Add String#f method as shortcut for #freeze

From: "headius (Charles Nutter)" <headius@...>
Date: 2013-10-22 12:16:59 UTC
List: ruby-core #57967
Issue #9043 has been reported by headius (Charles Nutter).

----------------------------------------
Feature #9043: Add String#f method as shortcut for #freeze
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9043

Author: headius (Charles Nutter)
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: 
Target version: 


We have String#b to create a binary-encoded String, and we have the "f" suffix (going away, hopefully) and the "literal".freeze optimization (#8992). I think it would be reasonable to add String#f as a shorter method for producing a frozen string.

If String#f is added the "literal".freeze optimization could be dropped in favor of "literal".f. This would provide something very close to the original "literal"f syntax but in a backward-compatibility-friendly way (class String; alias f freeze; end).
