module Hoe::Compiler

rake-compiler plugin for hoe c-extensions.

This plugin is for extconf.rb based projects that want to use rake-compiler to deal with packaging binary gems. It expects a standard extconf setup, namely that your extconf.rb and c source is located in: ext/project-name.

Look at nokogiri for a good example of how to use this.

Tasks Provided:¶ ↑

compile: Compile your c-extension.
