Do the recent changes mean we can use MacRuby to write iPhone apps? Henry

Release Build

I've been working on a MacRuby/Cocoa app and I'm getting to close to release. Is their any docs on how to prepare your app for release? Any tips or tricks? I know I will need to embed MacRuby in my app but is there anything else that is required/recommended, eg. can you compile the code? Henry

(assuming the class in question doesn't inherit from something with a different designated initialiser) - (id)initWithDelegate:(id)someDelegate { if (self = [super init]) { [self setDelegate:someDelegate]; } return self } or - (id)initWithColor:(MRColor)color andBorderSize:(int)borderSize { if (self = [super init]) { [self setCubeColor:color]; [self setBorderSize:borderSize]; } return self; } cheers Russell

super method
by Robert Rice 08 Sep '10

Questions on the super method: Is the super method unique to MacRuby? super forwards the current message to the superclass with the same method name and arguments. Is there a way to send a message to the superclass method with different arguments either from within the subclass method of the same name or from outside the subclass method of the same name to bypass the subclass method? Thanks, Bob Rice
