From: akr Date: 2012-03-18T18:05:39+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:43418] [ruby-trunk - Feature #3727] rb_f_require_relative not included in Ruby API Issue #3727 has been updated by akr. Description updated I think it is difficult to determine the base directory of relative directory in C. ---------------------------------------- Feature #3727: rb_f_require_relative not included in Ruby API https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/3727#change-24735 Author: jeffshantz Status: Feedback Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: =begin Now that Ruby no longer includes the current directory in $: as of Ruby 1.9.2, those of us using the C API cannot use rb_require() to require a file in the same directory as our native code without adding the current directory to $:. However, since this is not a good practice, we should be able to access rb_f_require_relative() from the C API. Unfortunately, this function is defined in load.c, but is not available in any files within /usr/local/include/ruby. I believe this function, or perhaps a function named rb_require_relative() (to be consistent with the C API naming conventions) should be added to ruby.h. My apologies if there is something that I have missed. =end -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
