Package: rake-compiler (1.0.4-1)

Rake-based Ruby Extension (C, Java) task generator

The rake-compiler is first and foremost a productivity tool for Ruby developers. It's goal is to make the busy developer's life easier by simplifying the building and packaging of Ruby extensions by simplifying code and reducing duplication.

It follows *convention over configuration* by advocating a standardized build and package structure for both C and Java based RubyGems.

Rake-compiler is the result of many hard-won experiences dealing with several diverse RubyGems that provided native extensions for different platforms and different user configurations in different ways. Details such as differences in code portability, differences in code clarity, and differences in project directory structure often made it very difficult for newcomers to those RubyGems.
