NAME

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

DESCRIPTION

       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.

USAGE

       Same as Rake. see man (1) rake.
