Hi,

You may want to have a look at the Apollo package at the RAA. It a Delphi to
Ruby interface but has some builder examples as well.

I haven't spent much time with it but I managed to compile the C++ sample
using C++ Builder 5. This gives an embedded Ruby interpreter within BCB.
Looks pretty neat, especially when the VCL components can be utilized from
within Ruby.

Martin
