RubyEncoder News

This major new release includes support for Ruby 3 including versions 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2. 

Please note, the files encoded with this version will require updated loaders. RubyEncoder 3 is available for Linux x64, MacOS and Windows as well as new loaders for these platforms. We are working on the new release for FreeBSD and also updating loaders for all the other supported platforms. 

Windows loaders are available for MinGW versions of Ruby (rubyinstaller.org). Note, Ruby 3.1 and 3.2 for Windows x64 are build with UCRT as well as RubyEncoder loaders for this platform. This is important to note, if you use a custom built Ruby for MinGW. While the loaders may start, using them with MSVCRT Ruby 3.1/3.2 on Windows x64 may produce unexpected results, errors or memory allocation issues. Use standard UCRT version on Ruby or build a custom Ruby against UCRT.

Windows MinGW x86 Ruby versions are not affected as well as x64 Ruby 3.0 - they are still built with MSVCRT.

We tested encoding for Ruby 3.x as much as possible using standard tests and encoding of some real working projects. Tested new Ruby 3.x features. But if you find any problems with Ruby 3.x encoding, please don't hesitate to contact us and we will work on fixing the issues asap. In case of issues with encoding or loaders, please provide a sample code that we can use to reproduce the issue. Thank you.
