It has many features to process text files and to do system -management tasks (as in Perl). It is simple, straight-forward, and -extensible. - -## Features of Ruby - -* Simple Syntax -* **Normal** Object-Oriented features(ex. class, method calls) -* **Advanced** Object-Oriented features(ex. Mix-in, Singleton-method) -* Operator Overloading -* Exception Handling -* Iterators and Closures -* Garbage Collection -* Dynamic Loading of Object files(on some architecture) -* Highly Portable (works on many Unix-like/POSIX compatible platforms as - well as Windows, Mac OS X, BeOS etc.) cf. - http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/projects/ruby-trunk/wiki/SupportedPlatforms - - -## How to get Ruby - -For a complete list of ways to install Ruby, including using third party tools -like rvm, see: - -http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/ - -The Ruby distribution files can be found in the following FTP site: - -ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/ - -The trunk of the Ruby source tree can be checked out with the following -command: - - $ svn co http://svn.ruby-lang.org/repos/ruby/trunk/ ruby - -Or if you are using git then use the following command: - - $ git clone git://github.com/ruby/ruby.git - -There are some other branches under development. Try the following command -and see the list of branches: - - $ svn ls http://svn.ruby-lang.org/repos/ruby/branches/ - -Or if you are using git then use the following command: - - $ git ls-remote git://github.com/ruby/ruby.git - -## Ruby home-page - -The URL of the Ruby home-page is: - -http://www.ruby-lang.org/ - -## Mailing list - -There is a mailing list to talk about Ruby. To subscribe this list, please -send the following phrase - - subscribe - -in the mail body (not subject) to the address -<mailto:ruby-talk-request@ruby-lang.org>. - -## How to compile and install - -This is what you need to do to compile and install Ruby: - -1. If you want to use Microsoft Visual C++ to compile ruby, read - win32/README.win32 instead of this document. - -2. If `./configure` does not exist or is older than configure.in, run - autoconf to (re)generate configure. - -3. Run `./configure`, which will generate config.h and Makefile. - - Some C compiler flags may be added by default depending on your - environment. Specify `optflags=..` and `warnflags=..` as necessary to - override them. - -4. Edit `defines.h` if you need. Usually this step will not be needed. - -5. Remove comment mark(`#`) before the module names from `ext/Setup` (or add - module names if not present), if you want to link modules statically. - - If you don't want to compile non static extension modules (probably on - architectures which do not allow dynamic loading), remove comment mark - from the line "`#option nodynamic`" in `ext/Setup`. - - Usually this step will not be needed. - -6. Run `make`. - -7. Optionally, run '`make check`' to check whether the compiled Ruby - interpreter works well. If you see the message "`check succeeded`", your - ruby works as it should (hopefully). - -8. Run '`make install`' - - This command will create following directories and install files onto - them. - - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/bin` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/include/ruby-${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/include/ruby-${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}/${PLATFOR - M}` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}/${PLATFORM}` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/site_ruby` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/site_ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/site_ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}/${P - LATFORM}` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}/$ - {PLATFORM}` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/gems/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/share/man/man1` - * `${DESTDIR}${prefix}/share/ri/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}/system` - - - If Ruby's API version is '*x.y.z*', the `${MAJOR}` is '*x*', the - `${MINOR}` is '*y*', and the `${TEENY}` is '*z*'. - - **NOTE**: teeny of the API version may be different from one of Ruby's - program version - - You may have to be a super user to install ruby. - - -If you fail to compile ruby, please send the detailed error report with the -error log and machine/OS type, to help others. - -Some extension libraries may not get compiled because of lack of necessary -external libraries and/or headers, then you will need to run '`make -distclean-ext`' to remove old configuration after installing them in such -case. - -## Copying - -See the file `COPYING`. - -## Feedback - -Questions about the Ruby language can be asked on the Ruby-Talk mailing list -(http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/community/mailing-lists) or on websites like -(http://stackoverflow.com). - -Bug reports should be filed at http://bugs.ruby-lang.org - -## The Author - -Ruby was originally designed and developed by Yukihiro Matsumoto (Matz) in -1995. - -<mailto:matz@ruby-lang.org> |
