NAME¶
rake-compiler - Rake-based Ruby Extension (C, Java) task generator
DESCRIPTION¶
The Rake-compiler is first and foremost a productivity tool for Ruby developers.
It's goal is to make the busy developer's life easier by simplifying the
building and packaging of Ruby extensions by simplifying code and reducing
duplication.
It follows *convention over configuration* by advocating a standardized build
and package structure for both C and Java based RubyGems.
rake-compiler is the result of many hard-won experiences dealing with several
diverse RubyGems that provided native extensions for different platforms and
different user configurations in different ways. Details such as differences
in code portability, differences in code clarity, and differences in project
directory structure often made it very difficult for newcomers to those
RubyGems.
USAGE¶
Same as Rake. see man (1) rake.
