    Kernel.system may the command that you are looking for: it calls a system process. For example:

    if (system("gcc ..."))
      @output_to_show = %x['./compiled']
    end
    

    Assuming that your server is in Linux/UNIX, it would be good to separate the compile&execute process from the website server in order to reduce the security risks (by creating a new user just for this purpose). Or can you trust the content of the cpp-Files?
