Subject: Learning extending ruby

Hello!

Could somebody help me with this small piece of code?
I'm learning how to extend ruby with C code.
What I want to do here is creating a class in C and use it in ruby.
The class should have a instance variable named myvar. This works so far.
But now how do I create the accessor methods for this variable?

Thank you!
Dominik

Here is the init method in C:

static VALUE t_init(VALUE self)
{
  VALUE str = rb_str_new2("default string");
  rb_iv_set(self, "@myvar", str);
  rb_define_attr(str, "myvar", 1, 1);
  return self;
}


BTW: Is there any good doc beside the prag. prog. guide about extending ruby?
