Hi Alan,
I'm afraid the MD* APIs haven't been covered by BridgeSupport yet, so
it may not be possible to call it directly from MacRuby at this point.
I would recommend to file a bug at http://bugreporter.apple.com so
that we can consider this for a future Mac OS X release, and to wrap
this C API into an Objective-C class that you can call from MacRuby in
the meantime.

Would anyone be able to give me a hint on how to get the following
objective-c code working with macruby. The code uses spotlight to
extract metadata from a file.
MDItemRef inspectedRef =
MDItemCreate(kCFAllocatorDefault,(CFStringRef)path);
CFArrayRef attributeNames = MDItemCopyAttributeNames(inspectedRef);
NSLog(@"%@", (NSArray*)attributeNames);
I was hoping that including the 'CoreServices' framework would work,
but
no joy.
framework 'CoreServices'
=> true
item = MDItemCreate(KCFAllocatorDefault, '/Users/alan/Desktop/

NameError: uninitialized constant KCFAllocatorDefault
