Wrap complex range boundaries with parentheses to avoid ambiguity.
Open

          params[attr['dialog_param_'.size..-1]] = val

Checks for ambiguous ranges.

Ranges have quite low precedence, which leads to unexpected behavior when using a range with other operators. This cop avoids that by making ranges explicit by requiring parenthesis around complex range boundaries (anything that is not a literal: numerics, strings, symbols, etc.).

This cop can be configured with RequireParenthesesForMethodChains in order to specify whether method chains (including self.foo) should be wrapped in parens by this cop.

NOTE: Regardless of this configuration, if a method receiver is a basic literal value, it will be wrapped in order to prevent the ambiguity of 1..2.to_a.

Safety:

The cop autocorrects by wrapping the entire boundary in parentheses, which makes the outcome more explicit but is possible to not be the intention of the programmer. For this reason, this cop's autocorrect is unsafe (it will not change the behavior of the code, but will not necessarily match the intent of the program).

Example:

# bad
x || 1..2
(x || 1..2)
1..2.to_a

# good, unambiguous
1..2
'a'..'z'
:bar..:baz
MyClass::MIN..MyClass::MAX
@min..@max
a..b
-a..b

# good, ambiguity removed
x || (1..2)
(x || 1)..2
(x || 1)..(y || 2)
(1..2).to_a

Example: RequireParenthesesForMethodChains: false (default)

# good
a.foo..b.bar
(a.foo)..(b.bar)

Example: RequireParenthesesForMethodChains: true

# bad
a.foo..b.bar

# good
(a.foo)..(b.bar)
