ruby 3.0.0preview1 (2020-09-25 master 0096d2b895) [x86_64-linux]
Description
With ruby 3.0.0 preview1, endless method definitions can be used for setter methods with explicit receiver:
def self.foo=() = 1 # => :foo= obj = Object.new def obj.foo=() = 1 # => :foo= From my understanding, setter methods are not intended to be allowed with endless method definitions.
Expected result:
The same error to occur for all setter methods ("setter method cannot be defined in an endless method definition"). E.g.,
def foo=() = 1 # !> SyntaxError ((irb):4: setter method cannot be defined in an endless method definition)

Seems to have been fixed since preview1:
