[MacRuby-devel] MacRuby and XML-RPC

[Stéphane Wirtel]

Hi all,

I am trying to create a small xml-rpc client with macruby, but I got  
this error.

stargate:test_ruby stephane$ ./client.rb
/Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework/Versions/0.4/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/ 
rexml/attribute.rb:18:in `<class:Attribute>': uninitialized constant

Here is the source code of my small client

#!/usr/local/bin/macruby

require "xmlrpc/client"

server = XMLRPC::Client.new("tiny.my.odoo.com", "/xmlrpc/common", 8069)
puts server.call("about")

This code works fine with the standard ruby.

So, I have downloaded the trunk version and I will try to fix this  
bug, and make a patch.

Regards,

Stephane
