Reset the dir
and path
values. The next time dir
or path
is requested, the values will be calculated from scratch. This is mainly used by the unit tests to provide test isolation.
The version of the Marshal
format for your Ruby.
Glob pattern for require-able path suffixes.
Use the home
and paths
values for Gem.dir
and Gem.path
. Used mainly by the unit tests to provide environment isolation.
Is this a windows platform?
Is this a java platform?
Is this platform Solaris?
Is this platform FreeBSD
The path to standard location of the user’s state file.
The path to standard location of the user’s cache directory.
The path to standard location of the user’s data directory.
The path to standard location of the user’s state directory.
Default gem load path
Default options for gem commands for Ruby implementers.
The options here should be structured as an array of string “gem” command names as keys and a string of the default options as values.
Example:
def self.platform_defaults
{ 'install' => '--no-rdoc --no-ri --env-shebang', 'update' => '--no-rdoc --no-ri --env-shebang' }
end
Returns a sharable hash map of error types and spell checker objects.
Takes a hash as its argument. The key is a symbol or an array of symbols. These symbols correspond to method names, instance variable names, or constant names (see def_delegator
). The value is the accessor to which the methods will be delegated.

Creats temporary source file from COMMON_HEADERS
and src. Yields the created source string and uses the returned string as the source code, if the block is given.
Returns whether or not macro
is defined either in the common header files or within any headers
you provide.
Any options you pass to opt
are passed along to the compiler.
Returns the size of the given type
. You may optionally specify additional headers
to search in for the type
.
If found, a macro is passed as a preprocessor constant to the compiler using the type name, in uppercase, prepended with SIZEOF_
, followed by the type name, followed by =X
where “X” is the actual size.
For example, if check_sizeof('mystruct')
returned 12, then the SIZEOF_MYSTRUCT=12
preprocessor macro would be passed to the compiler.
Returns the signedness of the given type
. You may optionally specify additional headers
to search in for the type
.
If the type
is found and is a numeric type, a macro is passed as a preprocessor constant to the compiler using the type
name, in uppercase, prepended with SIGNEDNESS_OF_
, followed by the type
name, followed by =X
where “X” is positive integer if the type
is unsigned and a negative integer if the type
is signed.
For example, if size_t
is defined as unsigned, then check_signedness('size_t')
would return +1 and the SIGNEDNESS_OF_SIZE_T=+1
preprocessor macro would be passed to the compiler. The SIGNEDNESS_OF_INT=-1
macro would be set for check_signedness('int')
