Provides Iconv.iconv which normally is provided through Ruby/GLib(1) functions. This library is required for ‘gettext’. If you require ‘gettext/iconv’, it tries to call Ruby/GLib function when it doesn‘t find original Iconv class(iconv.so) it adds a pseudo class.
One-click Ruby Installer for Win32 hadn’t had iconv and there hadn’t been a way to install iconv.so itself for Win32. And JRuby hadn’t had Iconv. I’ve not checked them currently, but if they’ve supported iconv now, we don’t need this anymore…
(1) Ruby/GLib is a module which is provided from Ruby-GNOME2 Project. You can get binaries for Win32(One-Click Ruby Installer). <URL: ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.jp/>
