yep, that all works... I'd rather be doing it in a more Ruby-ish way though...
:)
Is the fact that the Ruby-standard initialize method is not called for Ruby
classes descended from Obj-C classes expected? To me, at least, it violates the
principle of least surprise...
for example, in ruby 1.9.1 we see initialize being called
ru...@worcestershire:~$ irb1.9.1
irb(main):001:0> class C2 < String
irb(main):002:1> attr_accessor :foo
irb(main):003:1> def initialize foo = "default2"
irb(main):004:2> @foo = foo
irb(main):005:2> STDERR.puts "setting #{foo}"
irb(main):006:2> end
irb(main):007:1> end
=> nil
irb(main):008:0> c2 = C2.new
setting default2
=> ""
irb(main):009:0>
but not in macruby 0.6
ru...@alcazar:~$ macirb
irb(main):001:0> class C2 < String
irb(main):002:1> attr_accessor :foo
irb(main):003:1> def initialize foo = "default2"
irb(main):004:2> @foo = foo
irb(main):005:2> STDERR.puts "setting #{foo}"
irb(main):006:2> end
irb(main):007:1> end
=> nil
irb(main):008:0> c2 = C2.new
=> ""
irb(main):009:0>
