# class Gem::TargetRbConfig

A TargetConfig is a wrapper around an `RbConfig` object that provides a consistent interface for querying configuration for *deployment target platform*, where the gem being installed is intended to run on.

The TargetConfig is typically created from the `RbConfig` of the running Ruby process, but can also be created from an `RbConfig` file on disk for cross- compiling gems.
