Compiling to byte codes

Ruby
1

Dear all,
I have just compiled and installed 1.9 from SVN trunk. I seem to miss
the
instructions for compiling my ruby script to byte codes. Is there some
documentation available on using the YARV part of 1.9?

Greetings,
JS

VM::InstructionSequence.new(source_string)

Thank you very much, it worked. I have also been able to ‘VM::
InstructionSequence.compile_file’ and subsequently ‘eval’ the same. Is
there a way I could dump this to a file, and re-load the same into
another
ruby session?

How about…

File.open(“something”, “w”) do |f|
f.write vm_compiled_stuff
end

later

eval(File.read(“vm_compiled”))

There are InstructionSequence#to_a and InstructionSequence.load
now, but they will be changed or removed in the near future.

Thank you, again.
Is there a way I can dump the byte codes, to subsequently run them with
something like ‘-y’ flag of jruby?

Or, simply, ship only the byte codes without the source code?
