I don't know what I was going wrong but with some help from Vincent, I realized that my code was actually working. I cleaned up few things and put everything available there: http://github.com/mattetti/apple-remote-wrapper/tree/master I'll try to write a quick tutorial in the next few days/weeks. - Matt On Mon, Jun 29, 2009 at 10:23 AM, Matt Aimonetti <mattaimonetti@gmail.com>wrote:

Hi Guys,

I wanted to port RubyCocoa old Apple Remote example to MacRuby but I encountered some issues. It looks like I'm now stuck and need some help :(

Here is the code: http://github.com/mattetti/apple-remote-wrapper/tree/master

I took Martin's source code, updated it to objective-c 2, enabled the GC, made sure the demos were still working. Created a new framework target and added bridgesupport.

FYI to generate the BridgeSupport file, do the following:

$ mkdir -p ~/src/RemoteControlWrapper_R962/build/Release/AppleRemote.framework/Resources/BrideSupport/ $ gen_bridge_metadata -f ~/src/RemoteControlWrapper_R962/build/Release/AppleRemote.framework/ -o ~/src/RemoteControlWrapper_R962/build/Release/AppleRemote.framework/Resources/BrideSupport/AppleRemote.bridgesupport

bs generated file: http://gist.github.com/137201

I then created a new macruby xcode project, loaded the framework, created a new controller and binded it using IB.

Here is my controller:

class Controller

def awakeFromNib remoteControl = AppleRemote.alloc.initWithDelegate(self) remoteControl.startListening(self) p remoteControl.isListeningToRemote end

# - (void) sendRemoteButtonEvent: (RemoteControlEventIdentifier) event pressedDown: (BOOL) pressedDown remoteControl: (RemoteControl*) remoteControl; def sendRemoteButtonEvent(event, pressedDown:pressed, remoteControl:remote) p 'button pressed' end

end

When the app loads, the AppleRemote instance is listening properly but when I click on the button my code crashes and here is the bt:

Any help would be much appreciated.
