[MacRuby-devel] thread-safety and collections in macruby

[terl]

Just a note to the original question....

macruby collections are based on objc mutable collections...e.g.

a = %w{my array of strings}
["my","array","of"strings"]

b = a.dup.  b is still a mutable array.

c = NSarray.alloc.initWithArray( a ) immutable array

c << "hi"

runtime error cannot modify frozen/iimmutable array

b= a.dup.freeze

b << "hi"

behaves the same way as NSArray an immutable array.......
