event_hook

Faster rb_event_hook support using simple ruby

** Note: ** This project is EOL’ed.

Wraps rb_add_event_hook so you can write fast ruby event hook processors w/o the speed penalty that comes with set_trace_func. Calls back into ruby so you don’t have to write C.

class SimpleTracer < EventHook
  self.process(*args)
    p args
  end
end
