When doing `conf.enable_cxx_abi` and compiling with FreeBSD + clang or MinGW, such as `INTPTR_MAX` constant macro is not defined if `#include <stdint.h>` precedes `#include <mruby.h>`. Currently I get a warning when I use an undefined macro, but if I don't notice it I get confused in a link error. It can be expected that the problem will be easier to understand by making a clear error. Adding `-Werror=undef` as a compiler flag can also result in an error, but this can be a problem if the system header file itself uses undefined macros, for example. This patch does minimal confirmation only, but has no side effects.
mruby
What is mruby
mruby is the lightweight implementation of the Ruby language complying to (part of) the ISO standard. Its syntax is Ruby 2.x compatible.
mruby can be linked and embedded within your application. We provide the interpreter program "mruby", and the interactive mruby shell "mirb" as examples. You can also compile Ruby programs into compiled byte code using the mruby compiler "mrbc". All those tools reside in the "bin" directory. "mrbc" is also able to generate compiled byte code in a C source file, see the "mrbtest" program under the "test" directory for an example.
This achievement was sponsored by the Regional Innovation Creation R&D Programs of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan.
How to get mruby
The stable version 3.0.0 of mruby can be downloaded via the following URL: https://github.com/mruby/mruby/archive/3.0.0.zip
The latest development version of mruby can be downloaded via the following URL: https://github.com/mruby/mruby/zipball/master
The trunk of the mruby source tree can be checked out with the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/mruby/mruby.git
You can also install and compile mruby using ruby-install, ruby-build or rvm.
mruby home-page
The URL of the mruby home-page is: https://mruby.org.
Mailing list
We don't have a mailing list, but you can use GitHub issues.
How to compile, test, and install (mruby and gems)
See the compile.md file.
Building documentation
There are two sets of documentation in mruby: the mruby API (generated by yard) and C API (Doxygen)
To build both of them, simply go
rake doc
You can also view them in your browser
rake view_api
rake view_capi
How to customize mruby (mrbgems)
mruby contains a package manager called mrbgems. To create extensions in C and/or Ruby you should create a GEM. For a documentation of how to use mrbgems consult the file mrbgems.md. For example code of how to use mrbgems look into the folder examples/mrbgems/.

Note for License
mruby has chosen a MIT License due to its permissive license allowing developers to target various environments such as embedded systems. However, the license requires the display of the copyright notice and license information in manuals for instance. Doing so for big projects can be complicated or troublesome. This is why mruby has decided to display "mruby developers" as the copyright name to make it simple conventionally. In the future, mruby might ask you to distribute your new code (that you will commit,) under the MIT License as a member of "mruby developers" but contributors will keep their copyright. (We did not intend for contributors to transfer or waive their copyrights, Actual copyright holder name (contributors) will be listed in the AUTHORS file.)
Please ask us if you want to distribute your code under another license.
How to Contribute
