[Rubycocoa-talk] Cannot see actions and outlets in interface builder

[Steve C. <st...@sc...>]

Hi,

I'm using rubycocoa 1.0.4 with Xcode 4.4.1 and OSX 10.8.

I've installed the experimental templates for XCode 4.4

I've created a minimal app and it starts and opens a window.  delegate methods in my ruby code are being called successfully.  However I can't see any actions or outlets.

Any thoughts about why not?  I seem to recall from similar problems with MacRuby that the Xcode  way of invoking rb_nibtool had changed.  Could this be related?

[Rubycocoa-talk] [ANN]RubyCocoa 1.0.4

[kimura w. <ki...@us...>]

Hi,

We released RubyCocoa 1.0.4.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/rubycocoa/files/RubyCocoa/1.0.4/

A source tarball as well as binary installers for Mac OS X 10.7 and 
10.6 are provided. This is mostly a bugs fix release, for Lion
or x86_64 architecture.

The release notes are following. Enjoy! 

KIMURA Wataru

== Changes 1.0.4 from 1.0.3: 2012-08-27

=== Fixes

  * Fixed leaks at initializing RubyCocoa-1.0.3.
  * Fixed RubyCocoa does not load bridgesupport files under nested framework,
    such as "QuartzCore.framework/Frameworks/CoreImage.framework".


== Changes 1.0.3 from 1.0.2: 2012-08-26 (Not released)

=== Improvements

  * turn on debug printing by environment RUBYCOCOA_DEBUG.
  * project templates for Xcode 4.x. [Experimental]
    templates should be installed under ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/Templates.
    you can try the templates with the following command.

        $ svn export --force https://rubycocoa.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rubycocoa/trunk/src/template/Xcode4.x/Templates ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/Templates


=== Fixes

  * Fixed RubyCocoa apps fail to launch by Xcode-4 "Run" with an error
    "invalid option -N (-h will show valid options)".
    Now RubyCocoa apps do not process commandline options such as "-d".

    If you want to avoid this problem with Lion built-in RubyCocoa,
    edit main.m and rb_main.rb in your project like this.

        diff -ur old/main.m new/main.m
        --- old/main.m  2011-11-19 15:49:58.000000000 +0900

    the API RBApplicationInit() is available since version 0.12.0.
    (version of Leopard built-in RubyCocoa is 0.13.x)

[Rubycocoa-talk] [ANN]RubyCocoa 1.0.2

[kimura w. <kimuraw@i.nifty.jp>]

Hi,

We released RubyCocoa 1.0.2.

The release notes are following. Enjoy! 
 
KIMURA Wataru 

== Changes 1.0.2 from 1.0.1: 2011-09-02

=== Improvements

  * OSX.load_plist() accepts binary format plist data.

=== Fixes

  * Lion
     * Fixed SEGV at working with NSData or Ruby byte string.
     * Fixed some opaque becomes ABRecordRef.
     * Fixed build error with install.rb.
  * x86_64
     * Fixed SEGV passing/getting small C struct contains C array,
       such as NSDecimal.

My guess is that there'll be a new version of the framework that'll need to be embedded in the application bundle for distribution.

Can you tell me - does the fix need any compilation - or is it just a
Ruby change?

Hi,

Thanks for your reportings. 
I've fixed this probrem at trunk r2307.

http://rubycocoa.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/rubycocoa/trunk/src/framework/src/objc/BridgeSupport.m?r1=2307&r2=2305&pathrev=2307

I'm working for fix other problems on Lion, 
and I'll release the new version of RubyCocoa in this month.

[Gregory C. <gr...@in...>]

I've also seen Core Animation problems with RubyCocoa on Lion that don't exist on Snow Leopard. But it's very easy to translate an app from RubyCocoa to MacRuby. Just be aware that there's no support for Leopard.

[demallien <dem...@ma...>]

Hi Duncan,

I think you might be alone on this one - it may be time to move to MacRuby!

As an interim workaround, you could try creating your own Objective-C wrapper class for NSData where you can verify that inputs coming from Ruby are what you expect.

It's not very active. Most of the Cocoa Ruby stuff is happening with MacRuby.

RubyCocoa works only with 1.8. MacRuby is based on 1.9; perhaps you'd
have luck with it. (The API is a little different from RubyCocoa,
unfortunately.)

Its mailing list is at
http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macruby-devel . Matt
Aimonetti is working on a book (for O'Reilly); what he has so far is
at http://macruby.labs.oreilly.com/ .

Good luck!

is anyone on this list?

Is RubyCocoa still active or is the project dead?

Hey RubyCocoa,
 
Trying to hit the tires with RubyCocoa this weekend. A few beginner questions, 

I'm trying to get RubyCocoa working with rvm, I installed ruby 1.9.1 using the --enable-shared (rvm install 1.9.1 --enable-shared) flag but it is still telling me this won't work:

~ jason$ rvm use 1.9.1

info: Using ruby 1.9.1 p378


~ jason$ irb -r osx/cocoa
/Users/jason/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.1-p378/lib/ruby/1.9.1/irb/init.rb:264:in `require':LoadError: no such file to load -- osx/cocoa

Any advice?  Mostly just trying to get off the ground with this so I need some tips as to how to make sure I've loaded & installed everything correctly.

Thanks in advance, 

Jason 


p.s. If there's a way I can offer to help with the documentation I'd be happy to (i.e. share what I learn).

Hi Stefan,

I don't have a Mac in front of me to test, but I noticed that -invokeUndefinedMethodFromWebScript:withArguments: isn't a class method, it's an instance method of the WebScripting protocol, so you should just be able to do declare this:
def invokeUndefinedMethodFromWebScript_withArguments_(name, args)
  OSX::NSLog("Check invokeUndefinedMethodFromWebScript for #{name}!!")
  puts name
  puts args.inspect
end

as a method on the object that you set using setValue:forKey:

Your two class methods shouldn't actually need to be defined - they default to returning YES anyway.

Anyway, try that, and let us know if it helps....

and in javascript i did this:

I wish i could port this to MacRuby but it's rb-appscript support is missing and it's appleevent support is not ripe for production...

Kindly,

Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] Class methods and WebKit: Javascript calls a rubyfunction

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

Sorry, been a while since I've done RubyCocoa, my answer was
incomplete. You will have to explicitly export the method to the objc
runtime. See this example:

Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] Class methods and WebKit: Javascript calls a rubyfunction

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

Hi Stefan,

The method would be written as:

class MyClass
  def self.isSelectorExcludedFromWebScript(sel)
    #...
  end
end

HTH,

[Rubycocoa-talk] Class methods and WebKit: Javascript calls a rubyfunction

[Stefan B. <ste...@gi...>]

Hi all,

i am not sure how to implement a class method like "isSelectorExcludedFromWebScript".

This method allows me to tell WebKit implementation that a certain function can be called from the webpage in the Webkit environment.

So, to put it in context: I am using WebKit and I would like a javascript to execute a RubyCocoa function.

Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] DictionaryServices

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

Hi,

You're posting this to the RubyCocoa mailing-list, which is a
different software than MacRuby. Are you sure you downloaded MacRuby
and not RubyCocoa too? Because that would explain the problem you're
having with ‘framework "Cocoa"’ etc.

HTH,
Eloy

[Rubycocoa-talk] DictionaryServices

[ecin <ec...@co...>]

I'd like to use Dictionary Services (http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/UserExperience/Reference/DictionaryServicesRef) to look up definitions in a MacRuby app, but am having a hard time figuring out exactly what I need to require in order to access its functions, as

framework 'Cocoa'
framework 'CoreServices'

doesn't do the trick. Is this another example of missing bridge support, or am I missing something else?

[Rubycocoa-talk] RubyCocoa and OS X 10.6.3

[Yasu I. <yi...@hu...>]

Hi,

I read somewhere that RubyCocoa has a bug related to GC and with 10.6.3, that becomes a problem (crashes apps).  My RubyCocoa apps frequently crash when displaying multiple columns with a large data on a TableView and it seems this started happening since I updated to 10.6.3.  

I'm wondering if there is any plan to fix this bug (or is this fixable?)? 

I tried MacRuby, but for the processes I do with (some of) my apps, it is ridiculously slow (up to 50 times slower), so MacRuby is not an option at this moment.  

Thanks for any info.

Best,
Yasu

[Rubycocoa-talk] [ANN] MacRuby 0.6

[Laurent S. <lau...@gm...>]

Hi,

After 3 months of development since the last release, MacRuby 0.6 is
now available. Get it here while it's still hot!

MacRuby is an implementation of Ruby 1.9 directly on top of Mac OS X
core technologies such as the Objective-C runtime and garbage
collector, the LLVM compiler infrastructure and the Foundation and ICU
frameworks. It is the goal of MacRuby to enable the creation of
full-fledged Mac OS X applications which do not sacrifice performance
in order to enjoy the benefits of using Ruby.

You can learn more about MacRuby, and download a binary installer,
from the website:

http://macruby.org

Or about this release more specifically, on our blog:

http://www.macruby.org/blog/2010/04/30/macruby06.html

Enjoy,

Laurent
