Re: [Gems-users] How to remove a ruby object

[Dan Gibson <degibson@xxxxxxxx>]

Mishali,
If you just want to disable Ruby's timing in the middle of execution 
(and don't actually need to destroy the ruby module itself), look into 
the function SIMICS_remove_timing_model() in $GEMS/ruby/simics/interface.C.
Otherwise, if you actually need to unload the Ruby module, have a look 
at the Simics programming guide and the Simics reference manual -- they 
describe how to implement "module unloading", though I think earlier 
versions of Simics (eg before Simics 3.0??) don't support module 
unloading. Regardless, you will definitely want to make sure the timing 
model is uninstalled as above if you unload Ruby.
Regards,
Dan
