[Rubycocoa-talk] anyone work with toolbars?

[Mark H. <di...@ma...>]

Hi,
The main reasons I want to work with RubyCocoa is the ability to use  
all the nifty cocoa features like toolbars, drawers, and sheets. I've  
been fighting to figure out the whole toolbar thing, but I've gotten  
a bit stuck. I've stuck what I have so far at the end of the message  
(edited somewhat for brevity).

It doesn't work. There is nothing being shown in the toolbar, and it  
seems that the toolbaritems I'm creating never get added to the  
toolbar; calling @main_window.toolbar.items returns an empty NSArray.

Has anyone worked with toolbars under RubyCocoa, who could offer any  
advice (or sample code!)? I'm a bit stuck here at the moment, so  
*any* help would be appreciated.

Here's the code. The calls to breakpoint() are from the ruby- 
breakpoint library, which has helped a lot in figuring out what I have.

   def awakeFromNib
     tb = NSToolbar.alloc.initWithIdentifier "main window toolbar"
     tb.setAllowsUserCustomization true
     tb.setAutosavesConfiguration true
     tb.setDisplayMode NSToolbarDisplayModeIconOnly

     tb.setDelegate self
     @main_window.setToolbar tb

     breakpoint
   end

     puts "Null action of doom!!!!"
     p args

   def toolbar_itemForItemIdentifier_willBeInsertedIntoToolbar 
(toolbar, itemid, insert)
     if itemid == "install item toolbar item"
       tbi = NSToolbarItem.alloc.initWithItemIdentifier itemid
       tbi.setLabel "Install"
       tbi.setPaletteLabel "Install"
       tbi.setToolTip "Install this item"
       tbi.setImage "NSApplicationIcon"

       tbi.setTarget self
       tbi.setAction :nullActionOfDoom # is this how you replace the  
selector call?

     elsif itemid == "remove item toolbar item"
       tbi = NSToolbarItem.alloc.initWithItemIdentifier itemid
       tbi.setLabel "Remove"
       tbi.setPaletteLabel "Remove"
       tbi.setToolTip "Remove this item"
       tbi.setImage "NSApplicationIcon"

       tbi.setTarget self
       tbi.setAction :nullActionOfDoom
     end
     breakpoint
     tbi
   end

   def toolbarAllowedItemIdentifiers(toolbar)
     breakpoint
     ["install item toolbar item", "remove item toolbar item"]
   end

   def toolbarDefaultItemIdentifiers(toolbar)
     breakpoint
     ["install item toolbar item", "remove item toolbar item"]
   end

   def toolbarDidRemoveItem(notification)        breakpoint end
   def toolbarSelectableItemIdentifiers(toolbar) breakpoint end
   def toolbarWillAddItem(toolbar)               breakpoint end
end
