This is pretty unhelpful for debugging and tasks that do depend on the executed file's location. trunk/ r766 -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/180> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>

[MacRuby] #207: Kernel#framework calls global #copy method while loading Cocoa.

#207: Kernel#framework calls global #copy method while loading Cocoa. -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: eloy.de.enige@… | Owner: lsansonetti@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: blocker | Milestone: Component: MacRuby | Keywords: -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- This is something I stumbled across when playing with Rake. I have isolated it to the following: {{{ % macirb irb(main):001:0> module Kernel irb(main):002:1> def copy(*args) p args; end irb(main):003:1> end => nil irb(main):004:0> framework "Foundation" => true irb(main):005:0> framework "Cocoa" [] [] [] [] [] [] => true }}} It also breaks if the arity of the #copy method is specified: {{{ % macirb irb(main):001:0> module Kernel irb(main):002:1> def copy(one_arg); end irb(main):003:1> end => nil irb(main):004:0> framework 'Cocoa' ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (0 for 1) from (irb):4:in `framework' from (irb):4 from /usr/local/bin/macirb:12:in `<main>' }}} So it seems like something is being evaluated which calls a #copy method while loading frameworks. -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/207> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>

new example + new HotCocoa mapping
by Matt Aimonetti 28 Feb '09

28 Feb '09

MacRuby/HotCocoa sample with download, progress bar, scroll view/text view and new HotCocoa mapping: http://bit.ly/hThh9 I added a new mapping for NSProgressIndicator and put a pretty realistic example of what you would do in real life: 1. download a file 2. show the progress 3. display the content of the download in a scroll view I hope this will end up being useful for people wanting to get started with HotCocoa but don't really know where to start. - Matt

Hi All, I am wondering where there is a page that keeps track of what the goals of the project are, what the next milestone is, and so on. Is there anything like this available? Does some one have it in their head? Would love to know. -Gp

Re: [MacRuby-devel] Framework callbacks in macirb
by Barry Walker 25 Feb '09

Laurent, Neither macirb or macruby start the CF/Cocoa runloop for you by > default [1], so you will have to start it by yourself. You can call > NSApplication.sharedApplication.run or NSRunLoop.currentRunLoop.run. > > If you do this from macirb it will block as expected and you won't be > able to evaluate expressions. I would then recommend using an irb-like > Cocoa app that already uses the runloop under the covers (like > http://github.com/vincentisambart/hotconsole/tree/master > for example). > Thank you for the quick response. Using these functions I can see that the callback does execute after the run loop is started, but as you mentioned macirb won't respond afterward and the MacRuby script execution halts. So I know I'm on the right path, but not there yet. I downloaded hotconsole, but can't seem to get it raked / built / installed. I can't find any install instructions. There is a mention that you need the latest branch, so I grabbed the testing branch and built it, but still no luck with hotconsole. I'm definitely looking forward to trying the run loop functionality in the next MacRuby release. I'll be monitoring the mail list for any mention of its inclusion in the testing branch. Regards, Barry
