All, Attached is a patch to add the virNodeGetInfo() call to the Libvirt Ruby bindings. Although it is not technically a virConn* function, it acts like one since it uses the virConnectPtr structure, so I put it with those functions. Let me know if I am doing anything completely crazy in here; this is my first stab at Ruby binding code. It works like so: require 'libvirt' conn = Libvirt::open("qemu:///system") ni = c.nodeGetInfo print ni Signed-off-by: Chris Lalancette <clalance(a)redhat.com&gt;
