Hoe or inline C question

Ruby
1

For some resons I need to use C code (don’t worry jruby code will be
soon :wink: ). However I’d like to have it compiled (well - not evryone has
Gentoo :wink: ). AFAIK the hoe is capable of doing it. However there is no
migration doscumentation (currently I build gem on bases of gemspec in
Rakefile).

  1. Is the hoe only way of prebuilding it? If not what is the simplest
    way to do it from my situation.
  2. How to migrate the config to hoe? Is it possible to use different
    file names then it is chosen (I have more unix-like names without .txt).

Regards

AFAIK you can build it and add generated .so file to your gem (as you
do with regular .rb files).

In the ext directory or somewhere else? AFAIU the building == running?
