Hi,

What version are you using?

Since we rewrote the bridge between hash and dictionaries, it is possible that thing have changed since then.

However, with the latest trunk / nightlies, it should work. Here is what I get:

>> h = {}

=> {}

>> h.class

=> Hash

>> h.setObject 'foo', forKey:42

=> {42=>"foo"}

Let us know :-)

I'm trying to learn Macruby and am using Apple's page as a guide:

I'm using macirb to follow the example and getting complete different answers.  Is the web page wrong?  Is Macruby wrong?  Am I doing something wrong?


irb(main):001:0> h = {}
=> {}
irb(main):002:0> h.class
=> NSMutableDictionary
irb(main):003:0> h.setObject 'foo', forKey:42
=> {1=>"foo"}
irb(main):004:0> 


Why isn't the key 42 like the Apple web page shows?
