Re: [MacRuby-devel] command line cocoa framework
I wrote my piece in nu, but I'd love some other submissions, in case macrake had support for building frameworks, or if somebody had a rake file to do it. Rakefile sorted.

Re: [MacRuby-devel] Debugging API... standalone? documented? where?
Note that this API is to control the MacRuby debugger. My mistake, I thought MacRuby was using some debugger-fu that would be more generally applicable. Thanks Clay ___ MacRuby-devel mailing list MacRuby-devel@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macruby-devel
[MacRuby-devel] Debugging API... standalone? documented? where?
Like some of you, I keep tabs on MacRuby and nu. I showed the nu guys this quote from the 0.6 release: An interesting feature of the debugger is that it has been abstracted into a simple Objective-C API, of which macrubyd is just one client. In the future we might see other clients. [1] Tim Burks (created nu) wrote back: Can you point out a link to the simple Objective-C API that Laurent mentioned? Do we have to pull it from the MacRuby source? What's the story?

[MacRuby-devel] rescue NSException?

[MacRuby-devel] bundle or dylib
Hi gang, I was checking out the potential changes to the website, particularly create-an-objective-c-bundle.txt, and that inspired me to ask a longstanding question. I know very little about this stuff, but from what I could discern, it looks like MacRuby is loading what are technically dylibs, and not proper bundles. Is this true, or am I just whack again?

Re: [MacRuby-devel] forwardingTargetForSelector vs. MacRuby 0.4
(Sorry for the late reply.) Ditto. Did you try using the old methodSignatureForSelector: and -forwardInvocation: technique? Thanks for the suggestion, but no. I'm using MacRuby to test my ObjC classes, and the design decisions on the ObjC side are made othogonal to MacRuby considerations. Put another way, for me, the workarounds should be on the MacRuby side. I actually found some interesting stuff while trying to create a workaround, but I'll post that in another thread. Two follow-up questions: * Do I need to file a bug, etc.? Let me know what I can do to help. * The probably-too-frequent question: Any idea if this will be fixed in 0.5?

[MacRuby-devel] Monkey patching Objective-C classes
I'm using MacRuby to test some of my ObjC classes. I was wondering if there was a canonical way to monkey patch these classes. Consider, the following where Cell is an ObjC class: irb(main):001:0 Cell.object_id = 4387749088 irb(main):002:0 class Cell irb(main):003:1 def whee irb(main):004:2 p 'whee' irb(main):005:2 end irb(main):006:1 end = nil irb(main):007:0 Cell.object_id = 4388625216 I would expect the object_id to stay the same, e.g. using pure MacRuby: irb(main):010:0 class Bar irb(main):011:1 end = nil irb(main):012:0 Bar.object_id = 4298834304 irb(main):013:0 class Bar irb(main):014:1 def drink irb(main):015:2 p 'tasty!' irb(main):016:2 end irb(main):017:1 end = nil irb(main):018:0 Bar.object_id = 4298834304 Thanks Clay Bridges ___ MacRuby-devel mailing list MacRuby-devel@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macruby-devel
Re: [MacRuby-devel] Monkey patching Objective-C classes
Forgive my caveman-programmer terminology, but it seems to overwrite the class symbol. Extending Laurent's example (kind of): gort:~ clay$ macruby -e p NSPredicate.object_id; p NSPredicate.methods(false,true); class NSPredicate; def hey;end; end; p NSPredicate.object_id; p NSPredicate.methods(false,true) 140735077844512 [:predicateWithValue, :predicateWithFormat:arguments:, :predicateWithFormat, :predicateWithFormat:argumentArray:, :newStringFrom:usingUnicodeTransforms:, :initialize] 4298735808 [:__new__, :new, :alloc] gort:~ clay$ macruby --version MacRuby version 0.4 (ruby 1.9.1) [universal-darwin9.5, x86_64] If it's fixed, it still might be worth a unit test. ;) Clay ___ MacRuby-devel mailing list MacRuby-devel@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macruby-devel
[MacRuby-devel] macruby-bundle-example
Hi all, When I was first figuring out how to call my ObjC classes from MacRuby, I greatly benefited from Pieter de Bie's excellent minimal, xcode-free example of this, macruby-bundle-example. I spiffed it up a bit. Here's the github link: http://github.com/diffengr/macruby-bundle-example. It might be helpful to link to this or its like in future tutorials on this subject.

[MacRuby-devel] How to use custom C struct's?
Hi all,
I'm writing an iPhone app. I made the audacious step of trying to test
my ObjC model classes using MacRuby. I create and load a dynlib
(bundle) of these classes. So far, so good.
However, I have a C struct that I use all over the place:
struct MapPoint {
int row;
int col;
};
typedef struct MapPoint MapPoint;
Obviously, when I have a method that returns that type, MacRuby
doesn't like it. That is,
# ruby
my_objc_object.mapPoint
gives this error:
RuntimeError: unrecognized octype `{MapPoint=ii}'
The google didn't yield much guidance on this. Before I started a
deep-dive on the MacRuby source, and/or the standard ruby way to
handle this sort of thing, I thought I would ask a couple of
questions:
1) Any easy advice?
2) Is this different in MacRuby than in ruby proper?
3) Any pointers into the MacRuby source that might help me?
Thanks,
Clay Bridges

Re: [MacRuby-devel] How to use custom C struct's?
Yes, use RubyCocoa
I'm afraid I'm already hooked. ;)
If it comes down to it, I've already put a testing-only category wrapper
around one method, e.g.
#import Cell.h
@interface Cell (TestUtil)
@property (readonly) NSArray* mapPointAsArray;
@end
@implementation Cell (TestUtil)
@dynamic mapPointAsArray;
// this method is simply for ruby-side testing
- (NSArray*) mapPointAsArray {
NSMutableArray* nsma = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:2];
[nsma addObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:mapPoint.row]];
[nsma addObject:[NSNumber numberWithInt:mapPoint.col]];
return [nsma autorelease];
}
@end
Not too much work to do it for the others. Of course, one could argue what
I'm really testing here, but the craftsman in me says it's OK.

Re: [MacRuby-devel] How to use custom C struct's?
Thank you, Laurent. That was *incredibly* helpful and kind of you, and worked perfectly. Being able to add MapPoint#to_a and MapPoint[row,col] methods was the oh, ruby, you *are* magic moment of it all. I was going to try to pay it back by putting it up on a wiki, but Jordan beat me to it. I LOL'd when I saw my lowly MapPoint had made it to the big time. You go, struct! Seriously, gang, as a first contact with the MacRuby community, I couldn't be more impressed.
