Re: [MacRuby-devel] Exposing c structs and functions
John, thanks for the ideas. Currently, I am using a simple Obj-C class with methods instead of a struct and functions. That works OK, but it is not the best solution, especially in those cases where the framework would be used by Obj-C code instead of MacRuby code and where speed is a concern. A struct/ function approach is really ideal. I am afraid I don't understand the tutorial example concerning BridgeSupport files and how that might apply to structs and functions. As you said, the documentation on the BridgeSupport web page is limited. Before I go down that road, I'd love to know how involved the process is, see an example of how it works, and so on. Perhaps Laurent could shed some light? Jim
Your best bet is to take a look at the bridgesupport files for most system frameworks and learn from those. They are found inside Resources/BridgeSupport. Nonetheless, it would indeed be very nice if a more elaborate guide could be written. Eloy On Dec 19, 2008, at 4:45 PM, Jim Getzen wrote:
