I'm not the HotCocoa authority, but in http://www.macruby.org/hotcocoa/getting_started.html it states:

"HotCocoa is part of the MacRuby <http://www.macruby.org> distribution which will ship with figure versions of OS X."

(I think it is supposed to be "future" not "figure", btw.)

But, according the Rich's readme:
https://github.com/richkilmer/hotcocoa

"HotCocoa used to be included in MacRuby but is now managed as a separate gem. This will allow HotCocoa to accept contributions and evolve more quickly."

The link on that page to example source for MacRuby is broken btw:
http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/ruby/MacRuby/trunk/sample-macruby

The wiki on HotCocoa which is the most up-to-date source for info, I think, is here:
http://www.macruby.org/trac/wiki/HotCocoa

And the versions listed on http://www.macruby.org/trac/wiki/HotCocoaResources are currently:

   * http://github.com/richkilmer/hotcocoa/network (Network Graph)

   * http://github.com/richkilmer/hotcocoa (Rich Kilmer)

   * http://github.com/dj2/hotcocoa/ (Dan Sinclair)

Somehow, I thought the official version from somewhere on the site (maybe not the wiki) used to point to: https://github.com/richkilmer/hotcocoa but I could only find those links in my recent perusal of the macruby.org and macruby wiki.

Maybe it would be good if someone eventually created an official hotcocoa/hotcocoa repo in GitHub (especially now that macruby/macruby is there).

Also, there are still references to HotCocoa in MacRuby (latest from GitHub):

MacRuby (master)]$ grep -r HotCocoa *
instruby.rb:      when 'hotcocoa', 'rb_nibtool'
misc/release/MacRuby.pmdoc/01macruby-contents.xml: ....
rakelib/builder/options.rb: $stderr.puts "The 'build_as_embeddable' build configuration has been removed because it is no longer necessary. To package a full version of MacRuby inside your application, please use `macrake deploy` for HotCocoa apps and the `Embed MacRuby` target for Xcode apps."

Ok, thanks a lot, Gary: I will try them.

So no "official" repository is going to be put up ?

    Enzo,

    What I meant is that there are various versions of HotCocoa on
    GitHub. You might want to try someone's repo that was updated more
    recently. The "official"/original version (
    https://github.com/richkilmer/hotcocoa ) is probably the one you
    are using, but you can find a more recent one with patches, etc.
    by looking at its network in GitHub:
    https://github.com/richkilmer/hotcocoa/network

    for example, some more recent versions at time of writing are:
    https://github.com/gmanley/hotcocoa
    https://github.com/jamis/hotcocoa

    Gary,
    "Virus" was joke of course, however I changed the name on gist.
    I doubt it is a hotcocoa issue, but as soon as I have some time
    will try to replicate it with an IB version.

    What do you mean by "where you got it" ?  The code is mine, I was
    trying to do something along the lines of this
    http://www.nongnu.org/gstutorial/en/ch13s04.html.


    By the way, do you know where can I find a working drag&drop
    macruby example ?

        Enzo,

        It might be a translation issue, but I wouldn't call that a
        virus (it doesn't replicate, it is just something that
        freezes your computer). I wouldn't call it "Virus" in the
        gist either, if I were you.

        If it is a bug in HotCocoa, than it may be a bug (or at least
        undesired functionality if it freezes your Mac) in MacRuby or
        OS X, so you might want to dig deeper and provide more info
        on version (and where you got it, since it is in various
        places in GitHub) of HotCocoa.

        Thanks!
        Gary

        Hi all,
         I was trying to add drag & drop capabilities to a hotcocoa
        program and stumbled into a problem that really puzzles me:
        a macruby program can freeze your mac !

        I uploaded the buggy fragment here:
        https://gist.github.com/893300

        Don't run it unless you are prepared to reboot your machine
        the hard way, don't even "Force quit" works.
        In the instructions I say to launch it twice, but every drag
        & drop with any app  after the crash freezes the app.


        I'm using macruby 0.9, tried 0.10 but hotcocoa does not work
        with it (but this is another story !)

        Hope someone can tell me if I did something wrong or found a
        bug somewhere.

        Enzp
