Subject: [ruby-talk:17939] RUBY C++ Extension

Does anybody have the source to a WORKING C++ Class exported to RUBY
(preferably using MSVC 6.0) ?
I would like to instantiate my C++ classes in RUBY just the way as in
C++ code.
All samples and docs I found are on straigt C Extensions and that does
not help much.

Also how can I export the overloaded operators (for addition etc..) 
And very important can i mirror an inheritance relationship in RUBY ?
say i have a Ruby Method 
world_add( Object ) which takes an object.. Object is a C++ Class. Now
i have a C++ class which is derived from Object. How do i export it to
Ruby so that the world_add method treats it just like the Object base
class ? This is pretty important to me.
Also my progam consists of more than one DLL in the main DLL i would
like to export the Object Base Class to ruby and in some plugin DLLs i
would like to export only classes derived from Object which can then
be added to a world with world_add ? DOes that work ? Over the DLL
boundary ? What to do to make it workt ?
Thanks in advance
