Hi guys,
Things are shaping pretty nicely in trunk and we expect to release
the second beta in a few days. We receive bug reports every day,
it's great that people are testing it, and the final release will be
awesome :-)
If you are interested in contributing to the project and you do not
have the time or expertise to learn the source code & contribute
patches, there are still crucial things that you could do:
I have the following questions in regards to submitting code/patches:
1) Is there an Xcode project file for operating on the source?
No, there isn't.
2) How does properly create a patch file for submittal and should
this be filed as a ticket?
I recommend using the patch functionality of the SCM you're using. If
you work with SVN, you can simply change files, then:
$ svn diff > patch.diff
And you can enclose the .diff file to a Trac ticket.
.
1) Test as many Ruby code (gems, libraries) as possible with MacRuby
and report us feedback, if the code crashes, runs slowly or leaks
all your memory. If you report a runtime crash, it would be even
better if you could take the time to reduce the problem into a few
lines of Ruby, this saves us (well, me :)) time. Things we don't run
yet (but should): rspec, mocha, activesupport (that's a big one!),
etc.
Yes, activesupport is keeping from playing with activemodel at the
moment. Also, RSpec, at the absolute minimum, would be a great
addition to the MacRuby project. Is anyone working on activesupport
at the moment?
I looked a few weeks ago and noted a few bugs, that have been fixed
since. It's a perpetual approach, trying to run something, hitting a
bug, reducing it, fixing it, etc.
I would prefer to have rspec working first, though :-)
AFAIK nobody is working on this yet.
Laurent
