I'm trying to call simple functions from C in ruby using ffi but I keep getting the same error.

The error I keep getting no matter how many different examples I run through..

Also note that libfactorial.so is in the working directory..

Hi Catherine,

ffi looks for libraries in the system load path. Try passing the full path of
libfactorial.so. to ffi_lib.

I had initially tried that and got the same error, but wouldn't not matter since I'm running ruby in the same directory? I'll try again with the path though...
