@luislavena can I use rake-compiler to build the source code for an FFI extension?
@postmodern_mod3 @luislavena it's not a library... I have to build it into a library.

@bascule@luislavena still I think you need to modify LD_LIBRARY_PATH? -
@postmodern_mod3@luislavena ugh o_O maybe I should just make a normal MRI cext and a Java version for JRuby -
@bascule@luislavena or release the bit of C code as a library so other languages can use it? -
@postmodern_mod3@luislavena too much work when all I care about is a Ruby binding *shrug* -
@bascule@luislavena it's actually not that much work. Go find a boilerplate Makefile, upload a tar.bz2 to github, add a homebrew recipie. -
@postmodern_mod3@luislavena and a Debian package? and an RPM? -
@bascule@luislavena there's scripts/services that can auto-package your C library for Debian/Redhat. -
@postmodern_mod3@luislavena I think I'm just gonna make an MRI cext and a JRuby extension and call it good ;) - 6 more replies

@bascule@luislavena ah, so maybe release multiple targeted gems, containing precompiled code with the FFI bindings?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
