Thanks for your quick answer. But sadly, it does not seem to work. My application is a regular Objective-C application and uses MacRuby to load plug-in ruby classes which reside in their own .rb file. First I implemented the loading like this:
NSString* path = @"/path/to/MyPlugInClass.rb"; [[MacRuby sharedRuntime] evaluateFileAtPath: path] id plugInInstance = [[NSClassFromString(@"MyPlugInClass") alloc] init]; This is working fine when the class is loaded for the first time. Reloading the class while the app keeps running after the .rb has been edited however does not refresh the class. Then I tried to use the "load" command as you suggested: NSString* path = @"/path/to/MyPlugInClass.rb"; NSString* command = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"load '%@'", path]; [[MacRuby sharedRuntime] evaluateString: command] id plugInInstance = [[NSClassFromString(@"MyPlugInClass") alloc] init]; But it shows the same behavior as the first case. Am I doing something wrong here?
