Hi Alli,

Not sure if this helps you out or not,
but if all you want to do is to open a new window with a specific URL  
you should use:

NSWorkspace.sharedWorkspace.openURL()

Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] Scripting Bridge problems

[Allison N. <dem...@ma...>]

Oh, never mind, I figured it out....  You have to add the object to the application before modifying it's properties - apparently the ScriptingBridge class of the object isn't really resolved until the object is added to the application container.  So this works:

document_class = @safari.classForScriptingClass('document')
document = document_class.alloc.init
@safari.documents << document
document.URL = url

[Rubycocoa-talk] Scripting Bridge problems

[Allison N. <dem...@ma...>]

Hi everyone,

I'm having a few problems scripting Safari from Ruby, and I'm wondering if anyone else has had any problems/found solutions.

I'm trying to open a URL in Safari.  My first attempt looked like this (please excuse any typos, I'm not on the computer that has the source code....)

require 'osx/cocoa'
include OSX

OSX.require_framework 'ScriptingBridge'

url = "http://www.blah.com/MyAccount.htm"

@safari = SBApplication.applicationWithBundleIdentifier("com.apple.Safari")
# so far, so good!

# The following is no good, this gives me a document_class of SBProxyByClass
document_class = @safari.classForScriptingClass('document')
document = document_class.alloc.init
document.URL = url
@safari.documents << document

# the following works, but only if Safari already has a page open - it changes this page to the new URL, which is not what I want to do, I want to open either a new window, or a new tab.  It also fails if there is no document already open, as document is set to nil
document = @safari.documents.last
# document has a class of OSX::SafariDocument 
document.URL = url

#The following does not work, again, the class isn't right...
document = OSX::SafariDocument.alloc.init
# document.class = SBProxyByClass
document.URL = url
@safari.documents << document


So, I'm a little puzzled.  Does anyone know how to do this properly?

Hi Ric,

like this:

Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] LoadError: Mac OS 10.4.11, intel imac.

[Allison N. <dem...@ma...>]

Tim, when I had that problem, the easiest solution that I found was to  
remove the second installation of ruby from the system, keeping only  
the official version. I think your problem now is that /usr/bin/irb is  
just calling ruby, not /usr/bin/ruby. Try changing your $PATH to give  
preference to the official version, and see if that works.

[Laurent S. <lsa...@ap...>]

You do not seem to use the /usr/bin/ruby interpreter. The installer  
installs a version of RubyCocoa specially for the system version of  
Ruby that ships with the OS and it looks like you installed another  
version of Ruby in /usr/local and that you're using this one instead.  
Please check out your PATH environment variable, or call directly /usr/ 
bin/ruby.

[Rubycocoa-talk] LoadError: Mac OS 10.4.11, intel imac.

[Timothy M. <tmc...@gm...>]

I downloaded the 13.4.1 installer for 10.4 (the binary/dmg installer) and
ran/installed it. When I tried "require 'osx/cocoa'" it spat out this error:

require 'osx/cocoa'
LoadError: no such file to load -- osx/cocoa
        from
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in
`gem_original_require'
        from
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require'
        from (irb):3

I did some reading and found the full path, and tried:

require
'/Library/Frameworks/RubyCocoa.framework/Versions/A/Resources/ruby/osx/cocoa.rb'
LoadError: no such file to load -- osx/objc/cocoa.rb
        from
/Library/Frameworks/RubyCocoa.framework/Versions/A/Resources/ruby/osx/cocoa.rb:8:in
`require'
        from
/Library/Frameworks/RubyCocoa.framework/Versions/A/Resources/ruby/osx/cocoa.rb:8
        from (irb):1:in `require'
        from (irb):1

But that, as you can see, spat out errors for a require in THAT file not
being correct. Did some alias not get set right? Do I need to be logged into
an administrator account?

[Rubycocoa-talk] to_ns vs to_nsstring

[Axel M. R. <rub...@ro...>]

Excerpt:
It seems the implementation of string.to_ns is not correct for some 
strings or situations, and to_nsstring works better.

Explanation:
I have come upon a problem which has been bugging me for days. I've 
written a small code example, and that works perfectly, but my main 
code keeps crashing. Let me explain.

I have some code which has worked for months, but after the result 
text got bigger, suddenly stopped working. I've put a lot of debug 
output in it:

# replaceText is a new, highly recursive function
ftext = replaceText(self.mainText,loopStack)
puts "Finished substitutions on Template"
p ftext.class
p ftext.length
joepie= ftext.to_ns
p joepie.class
p joepie.length
self.mainText = joepie

This program doesn't convert the ruby string to NSString, but instead 
returns nil. The output of this is:

Finished substitutions on Template
String
43334
NilClass
2008-11-23 23:40:01.301 Telan[8971:10b] 
TLAppController#genereerPlanning: NoMethodError: undefined method 
`length' for nil:NilClass

As I explained, my small code example works flawlessly with strings 
up till 1000000 chars, so that wasn't the problem. Maybe it's a 
memory problem?

After some more head scratching, I noticed another to_ns method: 
to_nsstring, now deprecated. However, this method works fine!

ftext = replaceText(self.mainText,loopStack)
puts "Finished substitutions on Template"
p ftext.class
p ftext.length
joepie= ftext.to_nsstring
p joepie.class
p joepie.length
self.mainText = joepie

The output of this is (correctly):
Finished substitutions on Template
String
43334
/Users/axel/Develop/svn/telan/TelanRuby/build/Debug/Telan.app/Contents/Resources/TLRTFParse.rb:120:in 
`replaceTemplate': to_nsstring is now deprecated and its use is 
discouraged, please use to_ns instead.
OSX::NSCFString
43333
"TLRTFParse entering observeValueForKeyPath mainText"


So, it seems the method implementation of string.to_ns is different 
from string.to_nsstring, but the method of to_nsstring is less buggy 
than the newer to_ns.

I am not a ruby wizard, and have no idea how to solve this problem 
correctly. As I assume a memory issue, is there a way to 'flush' the 
ruby garbage collector, as you would do with NSAutoreleasePools?
Or is there a way to trace into the ruby interpreter to see where the 
to_ns method fails?


Anyone here on the list who can help me investigate and debug this thing?

thanks

Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] RubyInject

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

RubyInject was written as a proof of concept and is not intended to be
used for any real work. It's a nice hack, though, but it does lots of
dark magic to be considered stable, and the thread-safeness problems
of Ruby 1.8 do not facilitate the situation.

# I don't know why it does not work anymore, last time I tried it
(about a year ago) it was working. Maybe something changed in the Ruby
runtime or RubyCocoa that breaks it.

MacRuby may have a similar functionality in the near future.

Hi Jacob,
it seems the list is a bit dead. Anyone knows where everyone has 
gone? To a macruby list or something?

And sorry no, I have never used RubyInject..

Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] Binding to subclasses of NSArrayController

[Brian M. <ma...@ka...>]

Found the problem. I had created the object in IB by dragging in an  
NSObject and changing its class. You have to drag in an  
NSArrayController and change its class.

[Rubycocoa-talk] Binding to subclasses of NSArrayController

[Brian M. <ma...@ex...>]

I have an app that works correctly when a table column is bound to an  
NSArrayController. Now suppose I subclass NSArrayController like this:

class MyController < OSX::NSArrayController
end

If I switch the column's binding to MyController, leaving everything  
else the same, the bindings don't work in various interesting ways.

I suspect that (1) something - IB? NSTableColumn? the data cell -  
knows the kind of thing it's bound to and adjusts its behavior  
accordingly, and (2) doesn't understand MyController's superclass.

Could that be correct? If so, how do I get around the problem? If not,  
what's the real problem?

[Rubycocoa-talk] Methods that return BOOL / possible memory scribbling

[Brian M. <ma...@ex...>]

I'm making my own NSFormatter subclass. It defines  
isPartialStringValid:newEditingString:errorDescription:, which returns  
a BOOL (and also takes two ObjcPtr arguments).

The symptom is that the window (a preference panel) disappears after  
repeated calls to the method (repeated keypresses in the text box the  
formatter formats). The application doesn't crash. The window is  
loaded from its own nib.

It happens if the method returns true/false (The real literals, not,  
say, nil for falseness.)
It happens if the method returns fixnums 0/1.
Adding a to_ns to the return value doesn't make a difference.

The particular sequence of characters that causes the crash changes if  
you put NSLog statements in the method - so it's like something's  
scribbling over memory. Some NSLog statements make the problem (appear  
to) go away.

Here's what the method looks like:

   def isPartialStringValid_newEditingString_errorDescription(s,  
new_s, errdesc)
#    NSLog s.inspect
     matcher = Regexp.new('^'+s.to_ruby.downcase)
     val = matcher =~ 'yes' || matcher =~ 'no'
      val = (val ? 1 : 0).to_ns
#    val = (!!val).to_ns
#    NSLog val.inspect
#    NSLog "#{val.class} #{val.inspect}"
     val
   end

Ideas? I'm running 0.13.1.

[Rubycocoa-talk] Calling RBBundleInit() for Hybrid Framework

[Keith D. <kei...@go...>]

I'm writing a hybrid Objective-C/Ruby framework and I need to know  
where I should call RBBundleInit() to ensure the Ruby classes are  
loaded.

I tried calling it in an initialization function specified by  
INIT_ROUTINE which seemed logical but is leading to problems when I  
try to run gen_bridge_metadata. The framework I'm working on is a  
subumbrella and it contains Ruby code dependent on superclasses  
contained in the umbrella framework. Loading the framework without the  
parent causes require errors since the load path hasn't been patched.

Is there another place I can call RBBundleInit() that won't be  
triggered by gen_bridge_metadata or will I be forced to generate the  
file by hand?

Thanks,
Keith
