Thanks John,
Yes the simple example works OK.
My controller looks like this:
class DisclaimerController < NSWindowController
attr_accessor :showAgain
def exitButtonAction(sender)
NSLog("Disclaimer Window: exit button clicked")
end
def startButtonAction(sender)
NSLog("Disclaimer Window: start button clicked")
end
def toggleShowAgainAction(sender)
NSLog("Disclaimer Window: toggle checkbox clicked")
p @showAgain.state
p @showAgain.title
active = (@showAgain.state == NSOnState)
if (active) then
NSLog("Disclaimer Window: toggle switched to Selected")
else
NSLog("Disclaimer Window: toggle switched to Unselected")
end
end
end
And the output looks like this:
2009-07-08 18:47:08.324 xxxx[610:10b] Disclaimer NIB loaded
2009-07-08 18:47:10.658 xxxx[610:10b] Disclaimer Window: toggle
checkbox clicked
0
"Do not show this warning again."
2009-07-08 18:47:10.659 xxxx[610:10b] Disclaimer Window: toggle
switched to Unselected
2009-07-08 18:47:11.570 xxxx[610:10b] Disclaimer Window: toggle
checkbox clicked
0
"Do not show this warning again."
2009-07-08 18:47:11.571 xxxx[610:10b] Disclaimer Window: toggle
switched to Unselected
2009-07-08 18:47:12.690 xxxx[610:10b] Disclaimer Window: toggle
checkbox clicked
As you can see the "toggleShowAgainAction" is activated, and the
checkbox is linked to "showAgain".
PS: The checkbox has the title "Do not show this warning again."
(Sometimes I wish I had chosen a different profession, VBG!)

Hi Marinus / Rien,
I just did a quick test, given a nib with window and a controller
ruby file.
1. I dragged a checkbox NSButton onto the window
2. i created an attr_accessor :check in my controller
3. I created a method called test_check in my controller:
def test_check(sender)
p @check.state
end
4. I linked @check and the test_check method to the checkbox
And when i click on an off the checkbox the state toggles between 0
and 1.
So I do not think it is an issue MacRuby - could you try something
simple like the above?
How were you polling the check box state? That is: which method is
status = @myCheckbox.state in?
Perhaps this method is not being called.
Cheers,
John

Hi All,
First post, so a little bit about me: I am a SW engineer and have
been one
for over 20 years, increadible as that may sound. I have programmed
on the
Mac before in Ada95, Obj-C and Java (but I have had a pause of
about 5
years from the Mac). Now that MacRuby seems to gain some foothold
I'd like
to get back to the mac and make the jump from Obj-C to MacRuby.
I work in Xcode, and have just started a new MacRuby Core-Data
Application.
The first goings look good, but in implementing my first window
controller
I ran into a (little?) problem: I cannot get the state of a checkbox:
status = @myCheckbox.state
always returns a Fixnum with value 0. regardless of the visual
representation of the checkbox (i.e. selected or not)
The checkbox should be mapped correctly because:
myTitle = @myCheckbox.title
does indeed give me the title I set in the IB.
I checked the archives but did not find any discussions about this.
There was something about checkboxes and hotcocoa, but I do not use
hotcocoa.
The best solution would be a simple stupid mistake on my part :-)
Any takers?
Regards,
Rien.
