As Eloy says, super will work as expected. We try to support super in RubyCocoa too but it was very hard to implement (and it was also causing regressions), thus the necessary super_foo method. On the other side, you cannot do the following in MacRuby: - (id)init { return [super initWithFrame:NSZeroRect]; } (E.g. calling a different super method.) But I don't think we should provide a way to do this in MacRuby, because Ruby itself doesn't allow you to do that. MacRuby is Ruby after all. Laurent On Jun 12, 2008, at 5:08 AM, Eloy Duran wrote:
Hi Richard,
MacRuby is about getting as ruby-ish as possible. Thus you should simply use the keyword super, your third example.
Cheers, Eloy

In RubyCocoa if I had:
def initWithFrame(frame) super_initWithFrame(frame) # do other stuff self end
In MacRuby would I just do this:
def initWithFrame(frame) super.initWithFrame(frame) # do other stuff self end
or even just
def initWithFrame(frame) super # do other stuff self end
