[MacRuby-devel] NSArrayController

2008-12-29 Thread Nic Williams 
Replying to Rich's post on the KVC methods to add to get binding
compliance 
http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macruby-devel/2008-September/000563.html

I'm getting the same error as per this thread, tried adding Rich's KVC
methods to my StaffList.rb (which is probably MyDocument.rb for most
people but I think its an awful name) and the error didn't go away.

The project src is posted on github:
http://github.com/drnic/hillegass-macruby/tree/master/RaiseMan

I get a number of the following errors:

2008-12-30 09:33:16.934 RaiseMan[66636:10b] [
valueForUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant
for the key displayPatternValue1.

Thoughts?

Nic

Hey Brad,

Ok I replaced initialize with init (like your example) its still failing.

Commit: 
http://github.com/drnic/hillegass-macruby/commit/87d7af005f756291b156346258a561f156a65db5

No doubt its something trivial and obvious. Just not to me.

[MacRuby-devel] NSManagedObject being returned in delegate as Pointer

2008-12-30 Thread Nic Williams 
In this code sample: http://gist.github.com/41855 I am getting a
Pointer instance instead of an NSManagedObject_Recipe instance (from
Core Data). Subsequently the setValue:forKey: call at the end of the
delegate/callback method fails.

The top method addImage(sender) launches an NSOpenPanel, which
delegates to the second/last method
addImageSheetDidEnd:returnCode:contextInfo: when the panel is closed.

But instead of passing through the NSManagedObject_Recipe instance to
the contextInfo: recipe value, I am getting a Pointer.

Is this correct? Or how do I get my NSManagedObject_Recipe instance
from the Pointer. MacRuby src for Pointer class doesn't suggest it has
any methods for getting the pointed-to thing.

rb_cPointer = rb_define_class("Pointer", rb_cObject);
rb_undef_alloc_func(rb_cPointer);
rb_define_singleton_method(rb_cPointer, "new_with_type",
rb_pointer_new_with_type, 1);
rb_define_method(rb_cPointer, "assign", rb_pointer_assign, 1);
rb_define_method(rb_cPointer, "[]", rb_pointer_aref, 1);

Cheers
Nic

Re: [MacRuby-devel] NSManagedObject being returned in delegate as Pointer

2008-12-30 Thread Nic Williams 
Calling recipe[0] results in this error:

AppDelegate.rb:157:in `[]': can't convert C/Objective-C value
`0x8004676a0' of type `v' to Ruby object (ArgumentError)

I'm not sure what this means. I've played around with the Pointer
class and I can get this error a lot.

The original ObjC signature that is called to open the NSOpenPanel is:

- (void)beginSheetForDirectory:(NSString *)path file:(NSString *)name
modalForWindow:(NSWindow *)docWindow modalDelegate:(id)modalDelegate
didEndSelector:(SEL)didEndSelector contextInfo:(void *)contextInfo

Where the recipe (NSManagedObject_Recipe) is passed into a (void
*)contextInfo. Do I need to do anything fancy for this? Is the (void
*) causing the Pointer creation?

At least I know to look out for (void *) and pass objects around outside them.

Thx for the help.

[MacRuby-devel] Pointers for BOOL types

2009-01-01 Thread Dr Nic Williams 
The following method takes a ptr->BOOL. I've played around but cannot
figure out how to create a pointer to a true/false that then returns
true/false via its accessor.

- (BOOL)fileExistsAtPath:(NSString *)path isDirectory:(BOOL *)isDirectory

The following doesn't work:

framework 'Cocoa'
p1 = Pointer.new_with_type('@')
p1.assign(false)
p1[0] == false # => false, but should be true

Then I figured I should be able to pass BOOL to -new_with_type as it
is the data type, but BOOL isn't recognised.

Perhaps test_objc.rb could include some more examples/coverage of
Pointer usage too?

Ah, thanks.

I've looked thought the src now, and it seems _C_ID and _C_BOOL might
correspond to "@" and "B" but I can't find where they are defined; not
in macruby src nor in Cocoa Dev Documentation.

Where is the list of available Pointer types + their character code?

Cheers
Nic

[MacRuby-devel] attr_accessor on NSManagedObject

2009-01-01 Thread Dr Nic Williams 
I subclassed a Core Data entity Recipe with PPRecipe < NSManaged
object, and created accessors for the fields:

class PPRecipe < NSManagedObject
  attr_accessor :name, :desc, :type, :imagePath, :serves
end

but these fields now don't save or display correct after I create
objects, and restart the app for example.

If I remove the :name accessor, then the name field starts
appearing/working in the app again.

What do I need to do to get accessors working for NSManagedObject attributes?

Cheers
Nic

[MacRuby-devel] Distributing apps with MacRuby.framework

I recently shared a MacRuby app with a friend, with MacRuby.framework
included in the .app via a Copy Files target; but the app died on his
machine complaining that /Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework wasn't
available. How do I get the app to use the framework in the .app

Thanks for the new idea; though I'm getting an error if I
rename/remove /Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework on my dev machine:

`require': no such file to load -- hotcocoa (LoadError)

Here's a screenshot of my Target including the Copy Files + Run Script:

http://skitch.com/drnic/bndc5/copy-framework-and-run-script

The run script text is all on one line.

I have ../MacRuby.framework/Versions/0.4/usr/lib/libmacruby.dylib

Hmm, should we/I be coping over the
.../MacRuby.framework/Versions/0.4/usr/lib/ruby folder as well?

Re: [MacRuby-devel] Distributing apps with MacRuby.framework

2009-01-23 Thread Dr Nic Williams 
Hmm, even though I'm now using the copied dylib, the $LOAD_PATH is
still assuming that all the ruby goodies are in
/Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework :

["/Users/drnic/Documents/ruby/macruby_apps/CommitChat/build/Release/CommitChat.app/Contents/Resources",
"test", 
"/Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework/Versions/0.4/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.0",
"/Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework/Versions/0.4/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.0/universal-darwin9.1",
"/Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework/Versions/0.4/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby",
"/Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework/Versions/0.4/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.9.0",

To fix up the $LOAD_PATH, I added the following to my rb_main.rb
before "require 'hotcocoa'":

local_path = $LOAD_PATH.find {|path| path =~ /CommitChat.app/}
base_local_path = local_path.match(%r{.*CommitChat.app/Contents/})[0]

library_paths = $LOAD_PATH.select {|path| path =~
%r{/Library/Frameworks/MacRuby} }
local_library_paths = library_paths.map { |path|
path.gsub(%r{/Library/}, base_local_path) }

local_library_paths.reverse.each { |path| $:.unshift path }
$:.unshift(local_path)

Dear MacRuby Gods,

I live in the cheap seats of life, and do not have the where-with- 
all to

get a Leopard machine.  Also, I know many *many* people in the same
situation.  What would it take to downgrade / retrofit the stubs of  
this

project to something the venerable Tiger could gum down?

Also, if its a question of resources ... how much and who do I bribe?

Thanks,

You never know when Steve Jobs will get up on stage and excitedly tell
the Faithful that the next generation Macs will be on XYZ processor
(because he got a better profit margin from them).

Processor type isn't sacred afaik.

Re: [MacRuby-devel] ruby gems just for MacRuby

2009-03-09 Thread Dr Nic Williams 
You can give each gem a platform scope. Windows-only gems are the most
common incarnation of this.

There is an OS X-only gem "ghost" (http://github.com/bjeanes/ghost/tree/master):

  ~ : sudo gem install ghost
  Password:
  Successfully installed ghost-0.1.2-universal-darwin-9


Mongrel is a great example of distributing gems for different
platforms (unix, windows, java - see
http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=1306)

Look inside their gemspec/hoe config for how they do this.

MacRuby's gem command could be hard-wired to only pull down macruby
gems of some sort.

This is all I know without doing more investigation.

Cheers
Nic
