Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] AddressBook and address labels

[Patrick H. <ph...@gm...>]

Thanks for the assistance, I have a followup question, which (to me at
least) appears to be a RubyCocoa question, but is probably my lack of
understanding of Cocoa. I am now trying to update addresses in the
Address Book using RubyCocoa. I have the following code, which based
on my reading of the documentation, I though would work, but alas no
luck.

require 'osx/cocoa'
include OSX
OSX.require_framework "AddressBook"

me = ABAddressBook.sharedAddressBook.me         # =>
#<OSX::ABPerson:0xbf9a0 class='ABPerson' id=0x536ef0>
addrs = me.valueForProperty("Address")          # =>
#<OSX::ABMultiValueCoreDataWrapper:0xbf5d6
class='ABMultiValueCoreDataWrapper' id=0x53b330>
addr = addrs.valueAtIndex(0)                    # =>
#<OSX::NSCFDictionary:0xbf22a class='NSCFDictionary' id=0x53fe30>
addr["Street"] = "1234 Anystreet"               # => "1234 Anystreet"
addr["Street"].to_s                             # => "1234 Anystreet"
addrs.replaceValueAtIndex_withValue(0, addr)    # =>
OSX::OCMessageSendException: Can't get Objective-C method signature
for selector 'replaceValueAtIndex:withValue:' of receiver
#<OSX::ABMultiValueCoreDataWrapper:0x1f2f2
class='ABMultiValueCoreDataWrapper' id=0x51e640>
# ab.save

Any help would be very appreciated,
Happy New Year
