Auto-correction for Style/RedundantParentheses breaks code with yield or super

[ymap]

The issue occurs when the arguments of yield or super are enclosed in parentheses, and the following conditions are met:

• There is a newline immediately after the opening parenthesis of the arguments for yield or super
• There is a space between yield or super and its argument(s)

Here is an example of the code:

yield (
  42
)

Note: The same issue occurs with super when replacing yield with super in the examples above.

Expected behavior

I had expected one of the following three patterns:

1. Insert a backslash

yield \
  42

2. Remove the newline

yield 42

3. Do not auto-correct

yield (
  42
)

Actual behavior

yield
42

Before the correction, 42 was interpreted as an argument to yield. However, after the correction, it interprets yield as having no arguments, and 42 as separate.

Steps to reproduce the problem

1. Save the following code in a file named example.rb

def foo
  yield (
    42
  )
end

2. Run bundle exec rubocop -a example.rb
