When we want to test something in Ruby using C we have a test harness.
I've stripped out the non-relevant code to reveal this. Hope it helps

Stephen

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
        NtInitialize(&argc, &argv);

        ruby_init();

        ruby_script("embedded");

        char    *args[] =
        {
                "arg1",
                "arg2",
                "arg3",
                NULL
        };

        ruby_set_argv((sizeof(args) / sizeof(args[0])) - 1, args);

        char    *options[] =
        {
                "",
                NULL
        };

        ruby_options(0, options);       // required to setup TK properly

        ruby_init_loadpath();


        rb_load_file("d:\\ruby_1_8_2_15\\samples\\tk\\tkhello.rb");

        ruby_run();

        return 0;
}
