Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] problems when "require"-ing libraries or gems

[Stephyn B. <ste...@co...>]

Greg,

I gave your suggestion a try.

require 'rubygems'
require 'osx/cocoa'
require 'rexml/document'

Interestingly, this delayed the crash until I actually called  
exportModel whereas before the application crashed instantly.

I tried using rexml via

require 'rexml/document'

in a toy application I had sitting around and everything worked out  
just fine. Because I am had similar issues with builder (although at  
seemingly random places), this leads me to believe that there is  
something wrong with this project....but just what that could be  
completely escapes me. The only clue I have is the backtrace--which  
isn't very useful to me.

Can a project file get corrupted? Has anyone observed a similar  
behavior?

Cheers,
Steve
