This could be better handled with a native ObjC extension so that one could `require 'objc'` to add this to the process. The extension would link to libobjc and provide bindings to `objc_msgSend` and friends. By not linking to libobjc we can also avoid linking to libc++abi and all that entails. This makes ruby on mac more similar to ruby when compiled on other platforms. ---Files-------------------------------- ruby_final.txt (2.24 KB) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
