takahashim / debase-ruby_core_source

Gem to provide Ruby (~> 2.0) core source files for C extensions that need them.

Description

Fork of debugger-ruby_core_source that uses included Ruby headers (*.h and *.inc) instead of downloading them. Used by debase. Only ruby >= 2.0.0 is supported (debase doesn't work for older rubies)

##Usage

Example use in extconf.rb:

require 'debase/ruby_core_source'
hdrs = proc { have_header("vm_core.h") and have_header("iseq.h") }
dir_config("ruby") # allow user to pass in non-standard core include directory
if !Debase::RubyCoreSource::create_makefile_with_core(hdrs, "foo")
  # error
  exit(1)
end

To add another ruby version's source to this gem's directory:

$ rake add_source VERSION=2.1.3 PATCHLEVEL=242

(for pre-releases PATCHLEVEL should not be provided) add_source can use pre-downloaded .tgz (use TGZ_FILE_NAME to pass it) also it can extract patch level from version.h of downloaded sources, so PATCHLEVEL variable is optional.

##Credits

• @dirknilius for 2.2.3 headers
• @andremedeiros for 2.1.1 headers
• @formigarafa for fixing 2.1.0 headers
