What?

While most native C RubyGems try very hard not to cause failures, as a proud member of the Oops family, oops-null segfaults your Ruby interpreter by dereferencing a NULL pointer.

Diagnostic tool authors and novice debuggers rejoice!

Usage

  1. Type gem install oops-null or, to install a debug-enabled version, type gem install oops-null -- --enable-debug
  2. Run nulloops or create a Ruby script with require 'oops-null'; Oops::Null.boom

Requirements

  1. MRI Ruby 1.8.7 or 1.9.2
  2. An installed rake-compiler RubyGem
  3. A GCC-based toolchain. For Windows, consider using the DevKit
