Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] Documentation for RubyCocoa on Leopard (with followup KVC/CoreData question).

[Eloy D. <elo...@gm...>]

Hi,

Actually the script is gen_bridge_doc.rb, which is in /System/Library/ 
Frameworks/RubyCocoa.framework/Versions/A/Tools/gen_bridge_doc.rb.
However gen_bridge_doc.rb is only a wrapper around the library which  
does the actual work, but it seems the actual library is not included.

So for now you indeed need to download the tar and use it as Axel  
demonstrated.

Also please note that it doesn't include support for all the  
frameworks that RubyCocoa supports starting with Leopard.
They might work, but this is not tested and so they are not included  
in the generation process.
If people would like to try it out on some unsupported frameworks let  
me know and I'll whip up an explanation of the process.

Cheers,
Eloy
