Hi Jesse,Welcome to the Ruby community!I think this will work for you: https://gist.github.com/1015672I tried to annotate the sample as well as I could. If anything is unclear, or doesn't work, please let me know.Unfortunately, I do not have the HLLAPI lib to test with, so I had to base that code off of the docs and some .NET samples.HTH,-Charles

Being new to Ruby I cant find a way to construct something that acts
similar to the above code -.. i.e. custom data types. I was able to
get the examples up and working but they only use simple data types
such as int and string.
