# File lib/vips.rb, line 26 def library_name(name, abi_number) if FFI::Platform.windows? "lib#{name}-#{abi_number}.dll" elsif FFI::Platform.mac? "#{name}.#{abi_number}" else "#{name}.so.#{abi_number}" end end
Generate a library name for ffi.
Platform notes: linux:
Some distros allow "libvips.so", but only if the -dev headers have been installed. To work everywhere, you must include the ABI number. Confusingly, the file extension is not at the end. ffi adds the "lib" prefix.
mac:
As linux, but the extension is at the end and is added by ffi.
windows:
The ABI number must be included, but with a hyphen. ffi does not add a "lib" prefix or a ".dll" suffix.
