Re: [Wtr-general] What is the funtion in Ruby equivalent as strrchrin C
Hi Charley,
You gave a convenient way to achieve the goal.
By the way, I guess a double quote is missing before the last bracket in the
second line when using expand_path().
Thanks very much for your help.

There are quite a few ways to do this, here's one using expand_path:

[Wtr-general] Js popup unit tests
installed v1.4.1 via gems. Installed autoit v3. When I run the jscript_test.rb I receive IE errors stating that JavascriptClick.htm cannot be found. I cannot find that file under watir v1.4 in my gems dir. I downloaded it from svn and moved to the appropriate directory. Re-ran the tests. When IE would open a JS popup . . . Watir would not close it. I chaulked this up to the fact that a 1.5.x dev gem has been released for over a year. I installed the v1.5.1.1158 dev gem. When I ran the jscript_test.rb . . .

Re: [Wtr-general] OT: The original problem. Re: A small doubt in Ruby
Strange, I tried the example from Jonathan Kohl, and it worked fine. The idea in Ruby is that variables hold references to objects not the objects themselves similar to Java. If you've worked in c/c++ this will make more sense, Ruby, Java and some other languages hide the ugliness of this under the covers. So when you create a variable and assign it to something, it's holding a pointer to the actual object. When you then assign that to another variable, you've now got two variables pointed to the same object in memory. a = 'foo' # create a variable named a that points to an object somewhere in memory b = a # now create b which will point to that same object in memory, in this case a string object puts a.object_id => object_id whatever puts b.object_id => the same object_id since they both point to the same object in memory Enumerating through a collection of some sort like an Array, makes it a bit more confusing. If you end up returning strings, for example, then those are new objects which won't then hold reference to the original objects in your collection. Hopefully that makes some sense. :) -Charley On 3/5/07, Chris McMahon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: On 3/5/07, vijay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thank you Zeljko Filipin.
