For example: - </P> -<PRE><implementation.ruby script="CalculatorImpl.rb"/> -</PRE> - <P>To instantiate a class instance and use a class-level function, the Ruby class must - have a default constructor (an initialize() method that takes no arguments) and the - class attribute must be definde in the implementation.ruby element - in your composite, like so: - </P> -<PRE><implementation.ruby script="CalculatorImpl.rb" class="CalculatorImpl"/> -</PRE> - <P>Tuscany currently supports passing simple types (strings, ints, floats, etc) as well - as Service Data Objects into and out of Ruby components.
