.apr_config_needed_for_building_apache_modules?Boolean

Returns whether it is necessary to use information outputted by ‘apr-config’ and ‘apu-config’ in order to compile an Apache module. When Apache is installed with –with-included-apr, the APR/APU headers are placed into the same directory as the Apache headers, and so ‘apr-config’ and ‘apu-config’ won’t be necessary in that case.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

	end
end

.cpu_architecturesObject

Returns a list of all CPU architecture names that the current machine CPU supports. If there are multiple such architectures then the first item in the result denotes that OS runtime’s main/preferred architecture.

This function normalizes some names. For example x86 is always reported as “x86” regardless of whether the OS reports it as “i386” or “i686”. x86_64 is always reported as “x86_64” even if the OS reports it as “amd64”.

Please note that even if the CPU supports multiple architectures, the operating system might not. For example most x86 CPUs nowadays also support x86_64, but x86_64 Linux systems require various x86 compatibility libraries to be installed before x86 executables can be run. This function does not detect whether these compatibility libraries are installed. The only guarantee that you have is that the OS can run executables in the architecture denoted by the first item in the result.

For example, on x86_64 Linux this function can return [“x86_64”, “x86”]. This indicates that the CPU supports both of these architectures, and that the OS’s main/preferred architecture is x86_64. Most executables on the system are thus be x86_64. It is guaranteed that the OS can run x86_64 executables, but not x86 executables per se.

Another example: on MacOS X this function can return either

“x86_64”, “x86”

or [“x86”, “x86_64”]. The former result indicates

OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and beyond because starting from that version everything is 64-bit by default. The latter result indicates an OS X version older than 10.6.

.locate_ruby_tool(name) ⇒ Object

Locates a Ruby tool command, e.g. ‘gem’, ‘rake’, ‘bundle’, etc. Instead of naively looking in $PATH, this function uses a variety of search heuristics to find the command that’s really associated with the current Ruby interpreter. It should never locate a command that’s actually associated with a different Ruby interpreter. Returns nil when nothing’s found.

.passenger_binary_compatibility_idObject

Returns an identifier string that describes the current platform’s binary compatibility with regard to Phusion Passenger binaries, both the Ruby extension and the C++ binaries. Two systems with the same binary compatibility identifiers are able to run the same Phusion Passenger binaries.

The the string depends on the following factors:

  • The Ruby extension binary compatibility identifiers.

  • The operating system name.

  • Operating system runtime identifier. This may include the kernel version, libc version, C++ ABI version, etc. Everything that is of interest for binary compatibility with Phusion Passenger’s C++ components.

  • Operating system default runtime architecture. This is not the same as the CPU architecture; some CPUs support multiple architectures, e.g. Intel Core 2 Duo supports x86 and x86_64. Some operating systems actually support multiple runtime architectures: a lot of x86_64 Linux distributions also include 32-bit runtimes, and OS X Snow Leopard is x86_64 by default but all system libraries also support x86. This component identifies the architecture that is used when compiling a binary with the system’s C++ compiler with its default options.

.ruby_extension_binary_compatibility_idsObject

Returns an array of identifiers that describe the current Ruby interpreter’s extension binary compatibility. A Ruby extension compiled for a certain Ruby interpreter can also be loaded on a different Ruby interpreter with the same binary compatibility identifiers.

The identifiers depend on the following factors:

  • Ruby engine name.

  • Ruby extension version. This is not the same as the Ruby language version, which identifies language-level compatibility. This is rather about binary compatibility of extensions. MRI seems to break source compatibility between tiny releases, though patchlevel releases tend to be source and binary compatible.

  • Ruby extension architecture. This is not necessarily the same as the operating system runtime architecture or the CPU architecture. For example, in case of JRuby, the extension architecture is just “java” because all extensions target the Java platform; the architecture the JVM was compiled for has no effect on compatibility. On systems with universal binaries support there may be multiple architectures. In this case the architecture is “universal” because extensions must be able to support all of the Ruby executable’s architectures.

  • The operating system for which the Ruby interpreter was compiled.
