Rick, this is a known issue with Xcode 4.3.x which was moved from a system folder to an standard application folder. Xcode calls a custom script to recognize the MacRuby classes and make them available to the devs. Because the project was moved, the script isn't found so your MacRuby classes aren't automatically recognized. I thought a workaround including a symlink was added to the nightly build but that might not be the case.
Watson/whoever worked on that last, could you comment on the status of things and maybe document the workaround on the wiki please? https://github.com/macruby/macruby/wiki Thanks, - Matt On Mon, Mar 26, 2012 at 3:37 PM, Rick Lloyd <richard.t.ll...@gmail.com>wrote: > I've been trying to learn MacRuby by following " MacRuby - The Definitive > Guide" and have encountered problems with the code given in Chapter 7. > My system is running MacOS X 10.7.3 and Xcode Version 4.3.2 which were > installed on a clean hard drive so there are no remnants of earlier > software present to confuse the issue.
