Finding ruby.h

[John Ky]

[Note: parts of this message were removed to make it a legal post.]

Hi,

I'm building ruby extensions across many different OSes and architectures.

Does anyone know an easy way to find ruby.h on any given system?

I'm told that perl has a "perl -V" or @ENV variable which gives some paths I
can look through for perl.h.

Does Ruby have an equivalent? Is there a better way to find ruby.h?

Thanks,

-John

This works on a couple of my systems:

require 'rbconfig'
loc = File.join( Config::CONFIG['archdir'], 'ruby.h')
if File.exist?( loc ) then
puts loc
else
puts "Unable to find ruby.h in #{loc}"
end

enjoy,

My first idea for this kind of problem would be to check GNU autoconf /
configure.sh
