[Rubycocoa-talk] Building on 10.3.5 with XCode 1.5

[Stephen S. <sst...@ma...>]

Hi, all!

I'm trying to build RubyCocoa on OS X 10.3.5 with XCode 1.5 and the 
latest ruby 1.8.2 (2004-07-29) [powerpc-darwin7.5.0].

I am following the steps in Jin Choi's message of 2003-11-12 to build 
under Panther.  
(http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=6508201).

I have installed Ruby from source, gotten RubyCocoa from CVS, and have 
gotten to step 3.

3. There are several Cocoa constants defined in the ruby wrappers that
  are now obsolete on Panther. You must rebuild them:
       cd framework/src/objc/cocoa
       rm rb_*.m
       ruby gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb

When I try to run gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb, I get:

~/Development/Ruby/rubycocoa/framework/src/objc/cocoa->ruby 
gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb
../../../../tool/och_analyzer3.rb:45: warning: regexp has invalid 
interval
../../../../tool/och_analyzer3.rb:45: warning: regexp has `}' without 
escape
^C../../../../tool/och_analyzer3.rb:178:in ``': Interrupt       from 
../../../../tool/och_analyzer3.rb:178:in `do_cpp'
         from ../../../../tool/och_analyzer3.rb:20:in `initialize'
         from gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb:314:in `new'
         from gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb:314:in `gen_skelton'
         from gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb:354
         from gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb:354:in `each'
         from gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb:354

And the program hangs -- no error, just hangs.

Has anyone gotten past this point and, if so, what did you do?

Thanks,

Steve

P.S. When I get this working, I will write it up and provide patches so 
that we can move this project along.  Seems like it's pretty stagnant 
at this point...
