Hi guys,
Tonight I’m pleased to announce a new release of mkrf. The gem
repositories should be updated soonish. Major improvements include
easier access to compiler flags and better defaults.
If you’re interested in the project you may like to join the mailing
list (http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/mkrf-users).
= What is mkrf?
mkrf was created as a Google Summer of Code project and is used for
creating Rakefiles to build C extensions to Ruby. mkrf is intended as
a replacement for mkmf.
Major goals of mkrf include a simple interface with proper
documentation and easy code reuse for related projects like RubyGems.
