Are you interested in an FFI version?

I'm beginning the process of converting this handy library over to FFI, so I can use it in JRuby + MRI.

https://github.com/sgonyea/ruby-gpgme/tree/ffi_ify

ruby-gpgme is currently not compatible with JRuby, as I get a bunch of issues due to C-Ext compatibility.

Would you be interested in merging in my FFI code? Otherwise, I'll release this under some name like ffi-gpgme.

Cool. Does FFI work with static libraries? I think the current ruby-gpgme links statically with bundled libraries which can be found under ext/gpgme/*.

Incidentally, changing
https://github.com/sgonyea/ruby-gpgme/blob/ffi_ify/lib/gpgme/ffi.rb
Line 10 from:

ffi_lib "gpgme"

to:

ffi_lib "#{File.expand_path("../../../", FILE)}/ext/gpgme/gpgme_n.bundle"

seems to do the trick...

Cool! I sorta abandoned this and went with the JRuby Bouncy Castle library, but that's a bit of pain.
