#824: Calls to #validateUserInterfaceItem: have no effect ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: mred@… | Owner: lsansonetti@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: MacRuby 0.7 Component: MacRuby | Keywords: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Old description:

The following implementation of #validateUserInterfaceItem: had no effect when added to a window controller

{{{ def validateUserInterfaceItem item false end }}}

Replacing the above method with a similar implementation of #validateMenuItem:, however, and menu items were disabled as expected.

However, I also forgot to ask, but what version of MacRuby are you using? Also, what exactly is buggy, could you give a little more details, like step-by-step instructions + expected results etc.? Because when I use trunk (aka 0.7), and click on the `Edit` menu, I get: {{{ validateUserInterfaceItem ["MainWindowController.rb", 17] validateUserInterfaceItem ["MainWindowController.rb", 17] validateUserInterfaceItem ["MainWindowController.rb", 17] validateUserInterfaceItem ["MainWindowController.rb", 17] }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/824#comment:3> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>

I managed to workaround the problem by returning `nil` instead of `false`, so you can use that meanwhile :-). I'll keep investigating though. -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/824#comment:5> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>

To work around this problem, you can either use `nil` instead of false, or you can use this additional BridgeSupport file that adds support for `validateUserInterfaceItem:` '''NSUserInterfaceValidations.bridgesupport''': {{{ #!xml <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE signatures SYSTEM "file://localhost/System/Library/DTDs/BridgeSupport.dtd"> <signatures version="0.9"> <depends_on path="/System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework"/> <informal_protocol name="NSUserInterfaceValidations"> <method type="B16@0:4@8" selector="validateUserInterfaceItem:"/> </informal_protocol> </signatures> }}} Then in your main.rb, add the `load_bridge_support_file` function call: {{{ #!ruby # [...] $:.unshift File.expand_path("#{root}") # Workaround for #validateUserInterfaceItem: load_bridge_support_file(root.stringByAppendingPathComponent('NSUserInterfaceValidations.bridgesupport')) }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/824#comment:9> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>
