[ruby-core:88754] [Ruby trunk Feature#15047] Documentation and more functions for Hash functions in C API

Issue #15047 has been updated by shevegen (Robert A. Heiler).


More documentation would always be very helpful. It makes "entry" into the
ruby world easier when there is good documentation. Perhaps after ruby 3x3
we could add a new meme - four times as good documentation. :D

Feature #15047: Documentation and more functions for Hash functions in C API

----------------------------------------
Currently the C API supports various Array functions like `rb_ary_new()` and String
functions like `rb_str_new2()` I could hardly find any documentation in the README.EXT
for working with hashes. Instead, I relied on this blog: http://clalance.blogspot.com/2011/01/writing-ruby-extensions-in-c-part-10.html

Having official documentation for this purpose would be better.

Also, including more functionality like getting the size a Hash directly through
a C API call would be a welcome feature.
