common variable in a more than one process ?

[Pokkai Dokkai]

is there any way to access a common variable in more than one processes
which are created in ruby ?

or

can we access a global variable or class variable into more than one
processes..

Depends on the usage. For values that change often you could use DRb.

You can set variables before fork.

but if you want to change them you should probably check SystemVIPC (on
inux and cygwin) or drb
