Hi guys and girls,
I have started a new project for accessing an ABAP system with RFC using Ruby. It consists of a Ruby library that is a wrapper around the libnwrfc.so library using Ruby-FFI (so basically no compilation is needed, as it calls the C functions directly).
It's still early days, and there's not much to show for the effort, but you can do some basic function-calling with it.
You can find it here: https://github.com/mydoghasworms/nwrfc
Feedback and contributions are welcome.
Regards,
Martin
Hi Martin,
Nice!
I assume you've seen Piers Harding's [Ruby sapnwrfc|http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/sapnwrfc] - although it doesn't use FFI, it may be a useful reference.
Regards, MJ

Hi MJ,
I have yes, and I have used Piers' gem for accessing SAP too, but I have been itching to write my own library for this as well, and doing it with FFI seemed to be a nice challenge.
I have just posted an announcement for an update to the gem (0.0.1), as the current one will have failed miserably.
All the best,
Martin
