This is an attempt to provide some of Rubinius's additional core classes on other implementations. Rubinius has all the normal Ruby classes, but to support implementing them mostly in Ruby, they have added a number of other support classes. This library hopes to implement those additional support classes for other Ruby implementations, so they their utility can be shared across implementations. Currently, only the following classes are implemented, and only on JRuby: Rubinius::ByteArray - a fixed-size array of bytes Rubinius::Channel - a low-level synchronization mechanism Rubinius::EnvironmentAccess - env variable support Rubinius::Tuple - a fixed-size array of object references Rubinius::Type - utilities for type conversions In addition, some utility methods added to Thread for recursive guards and Kernel::StringValue are also implemented. More APIs will be added over time.
