Note this should also let us start to source the .rb files from the gem rather than versioning them in the JRuby repository. The last step will be moving our native BigDecimal implementation into the gem, which will hopefully happen some time this year. |

JRuby currently ships its own internal bigdecimal extension as part of the core libraries. In order for users to be able to add bigdecimal to their Gemfile or gem dependencies, we need to stub out the C extension and just load the extension shipped with JRuby. In the future we will try to move our BigDecimal implementation into the gem, but for now this is the simplest way to make it installable on JRuby. See ruby#169

Migration of the Java native BigDecimal into this repo will force us to handle both C and Java implementations at the same time when we add a new feature and fix some behavior. I want to avoid this situation. |
