High level Ruby bindings. Write Ruby extension gems in Rust, or call Ruby code from a Rust binary.

// Ruby's source, that comment and the code have been unchanged singe 1.9.2,

/// A handle to access Ruby's API.

/// possible to acquire an instance in situations where Ruby's API is known to
/// be available.
///
/// Many functions that take Ruby values as arguments are available directly
/// without having to use a `Ruby` handle, as being able to provide a Ruby
/// value is 'proof' the function is being called from a Ruby thread. Because
/// of this most methods defined on `Ruby` deal with creating Ruby objects
/// from Rust data.
