"Now look at the last function, Init_Test. Every class or module defines a C global function named Init_ Name. This function will be called when the interpreter first loads the extension Name (or on startup for statically linked extensions). It is used to initialize the extension and to insinuate it into the Ruby environment." I don't know what you mean by "acting like a library function". Your code will be either compiled into a shared library (.so or .dll), or linked directly into the ruby binary, depending on how you build it. Init_<Name> is a publicly-accessible function, which is called by ruby when the module is loaded, or when the interpreter starts. > 2. What does the require command do? http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/classes/Kernel.html#M001418 -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
