Has anyone tried wrapping user-land IOKit, e.g.

I'd love to use MacRuby to prototype user-land USB drivers.

Hi,
Is there any way to inform an Objective-C class of the existence of a ruby
class so that instances can be created in Objective-C code?
Currently I am doing the following:
[[MacRuby sharedRuntime] evaluateString:[NSString
stringWithFormat:@"RubyClass.new('%@')", arg]];
If I'm adding quite a
After the Ruby code that defines the class has been evaled, you should be able
to do the following:
Class rubyClass = NSClassFromString(@"RubyClass");
id rubyObject = [[rubyClass alloc] init];

Brilliant suggestion Eloy, much appreciated.
There's a noticeable improvement in speed using this technique. In the method
which added ruby objects to an array, 77% of the time was spent on initialising
the objects, that's now down to 35%.

You're welcome Alan :)
Hmm, I wonder if this big impact is because of skipping evaling everytime,
which iirc is the only thing that evaluateString does, or something else is
happening... Have you also tried doing [rubyClass new] instead of alloc init? I
thought they should do the same.

Hi Eloy,
The way I'm initializing the ruby objects is with a custom class method as they
must be intialized with arguments.
For example, here is the macruby class method:

end
Which means that in Objective-C I'm using the som

Sorry to hijack a bit, but since you're here Matt... :) Are there any

I am working on translation software. Nothing as cool as NLP and CAT, but it
will help you to manage what you are in the process of translating since it
is a LOT of data at times to handle. For the moment that is it.

Hello everybody,
I'm spending more and more time with macruby but I'm not very happy with XCode

frameworks like Cocoa I think autocomplete and i

The problem here is that you cannot just run gen_bridge_metadata on
IOKit.framework.
You need to selectively include or exclude a bunch of sub
Hi Joel,
IOKit.framework should be wrapped in the latest BridgeSupport preview release.
If you install it, you should be able to talk to the IOKit APIs from MacRuby,
in theory.
In practice, I don't think anyone ever tried that yet, so you may hit bugs :)
Let us know if you find something wrong

Hi Alan,
When performing Ruby selectors on Ruby objects from Objective-C, the
performRubySelector: method should be used instead of performSelector:, because
it takes care of special Ruby semantics such as splat or default arguments.

Looks like I talked too fast, there isn't any BridgeSupport file for IOKit,
even in Preview 2. I will look into it, as I'm planning to roll out a new
version soon.

I use XCode only for the build process to create the .app. Interface Builder
for the design and linking objects. With one exception I use RubyMine for the
whole rest of Mac development. Actually RubyMine doesn't support MacRubys
'framework' concept yet, so I rarely need to use XCode for Mac spec
