rubycocoa-talk — talking about RubyCocoa

[Rubycocoa-talk] [ANN]RubyCocoa 0.4.1 was released!

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

RubyCocoa 0.4.1 was released!

   http://rubycocoa.sourceforge.net/
   (The web site have been moved from http://www.fobj.com/rubycocoa/)

The '.pkg' binary packages are available for Mac OS X 10.3/10.2.  
All of framework, library, documents, samples and Xcode/ProjectBuilder 
templates are contained in the package. These items will be installed 
into the appropriate place. It is available to start of RubyCocoa 
programming or use of RubyCocoa application immediately.


== Changes from 0.4.0

  * enable bundling RubyCocoa.framework within an application bundle                

    Change a build configration of RubyCocoa.framework project, to 
    execute a RubyCocoa application on the environment which is not 
    installed RubyCocoa. It allows that RubyCocoa application itself 
    bundles with RubyCocoa.framework.

  * Mac OS X 10.3 and Xcode supported
                                                                                

== What's RubyCocoa?

  RubyCocoa is a Mac OS X framework that allows Cocoa programming in
  the Object-Oriented Scripting Language Ruby.

  RubyCocoa allows writing a Cocoa application in Ruby.  It allows
  creating and using a Cocoa object in a Ruby script.  In Cocoa
  application, mixture of program written by both Ruby and Objective-C
  is possible.

  Some cases using RubyCocoa:

    * Exploration of a Cocoa object's feature with 'irb' interactively
    * Prototyping of a Cocoa application
    * Cocoa application that include good feature of Ruby and Objective-C
    * Wrapping Mac OS X native GUI for Ruby script

Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] I am looking for a nsoutlineview example for rubycocoa

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

Hi,

I wrote class browser for RubyCocoa. This application has NSOutlineView.
In datasource.rb, ClassTreeDataSource and ModuleTreeDataSource implements
Protocol NSOutlineViewDatasource.

http://homepage.mac.com/kimuraw/archive/CocoaRBBR.dmg (61KB)

>I am however getting an error:

This message means class 'Node' is undefined in your application.
 

Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] I am looking for a nsoutlineview example for rubycocoa

[mrpotatohead <mrp...@le...>]

I have done some digging and I am converting an example of a Obj-C 
NSOutlineView to RubyCocoa this is what I have so far:

	#### start data source for outline view ######
	# Must implement data source for outline view
	# outlineView:numberOfChildrenOfItem:
	# outlineView:isItemExpandable:
	# outlineView:child:ofItem:
	# outlineView:objectValueForTableColumn:byItem:
	##############################################
		
	def initialize; super;
		@rootNode = Node.new
		self;
	end
	
  	def outlineView_numberOfChildrenOfItem(outView, item)
		outView.size?
	end
	
	def outlineView_isItemExpandable(outView, item)
		return item.empty?
	end

	def outlineView_child_ofItem(outView, child, item)
		
		 if item.nil?			
			@rootNode.childAtIndex(index)
		else			
			@item.childAtIndex(index)
		end
		
	end
	
	def outlineView_objectValueForTableColumn_byItem(outView, item)
		item.keyValue('title')
	end
	##############################################


I am however getting an error:

RubyRaiseMan.app/Contents/Resources/MyDocument.rb:68:in `initialize': 
uninitialized constant Node at MyDocument (NameError)

I am new to Ruby and to Cocoa so this is very hard and would love any 
help people may have for me.

[Rubycocoa-talk] bug in RubyRaiseMan example

[mrpotatohead <mrp...@le...>]

Hi -

I am extending RubyRaiseMan for fun and I noticed that RubyRaiseMan=20
will crash if your try to access an NSArchive file if their are more=20
then two rows of NSTableView data in that file one is fine two will=20
crash RubyRaiseMan.

Now I have extended RubyRaiseMan by adding another NStableView however=20=

now it crashes even if their is only one row of data.

The code executing is very simple - but I am very new to rubycocoa -

This method loads data from a binary archive which was create by Cocoa=20=

using NSArchive and
now will be unarchives using NSUnarchiver..
=A0
Question is Marshal a ruby method and if yes what  does it do?
=A0
The problem is as soon as I open such an archive my application crashes

Here is the code as far as  I can see:
=A0
##########################
def dataRepresentationOfType (type)
     @tableView.deselectAll(nil)
     dumped_data =3D Marshal.dump @employees
     return NSArchiver.archivedDataWithRootObject(dumped_data)
   end

def loadDataRepresentation_ofType (data, type)
     dumped_data =3D NSUnarchiver.unarchiveObjectWithData(data)
     @employees =3D Marshal.load(dumped_data.to_s)
     updateChangeCount(NSChangeCleared)
     update_ui
     return true
   end
##########################

IS this a bug in RubyCocoa or RubyRaiseMan and has anyone seen this=20
before?

Thanks

[Rubycocoa-talk] rubycoca and Rails Active Record versus Tiger Core Data

[mrpotatohead <mrp...@le...>]

Hi

I would like to know what database abstraction layer are people with 
using with rubycocoa - I need data persistence and I am looking at my 
options of which Rails Active Record- a pure ruby database abstraction 
layer versus the upcoming Tiger Core Data.

Will rubycocoa work with core data? If yes how is it going - With in 
the bounds of your NDA, please explain.
Has anyone used Rails Active Record with rubycocoa?
What other frameworks are people using?
Is their code examples for either rubycoca with Rails Active Record and 
or Core Data?

Can anyone offer me a comparison for me?

[Rubycocoa-talk] [FWD] plugin for Quicksilver by ruby

[FUJIMOTO H. <hi...@us...>]

Hi,

I got a mail ; is it possible to make a plugin for Quicksilver
by Ruby (with RubyCocoa)?

Is there someone writing the plugin, and interesting one? The
follows is snip of the mail:
--
FUJIMOTO Hisa

------------------------------------------
I am enjoying your RubyCocoa. It is my first Mac programming experience, 
though I am also using FScript. Thank you for doing such a good job on it!

I would like to make a plugin for Quicksilver
http://quicksilver.blacktree.com/ .
They use a standard plugin architecture (see 
http://quicksilver.blacktree.com/docs/?page=Quicksilver+Development ).

Plugins can be written in ObjectiveC, or in Python using PyObjC
http://quicksilver.blacktree.com/docs/?page=PyObjC+PlugIns

I thought that Ruby might be used to make these plugins. If Python can be 
used, why not Ruby?

But I don't know if that is possible.

They use arrays in the plist to specify handlers. The values of these entries 
are class names, so I guess that they call the code dynamically.

They have an ObjectiveC file in the Python plugins that defines a subclass of 
NSBundle with a unique name. This subclass overrides
-(Class)classNamed:(NSString*)name
to do the lookup of Python classes. Then they have another class with a
+(void)load
method that gets the NSBundle object for the plugin and changes its class to 
that of the NSBundle subclass.

Is this the way that Ruby could make plugins, or is there a better way?

[Rubycocoa-talk] panther install

[Ed S. <eh...@po...>]

I followed the instructions for checking out the branch-devel-panther
and:
    
    ruby install.rb config
    ruby install.rb setup
    ruby install.rb install

All of which went smooth. Only problem is when I execute the tests
afterwards in the tests dir I get the following output.

ink:~/Projects/rubycocoa-panther/tests ed$ ruby testall.rb 
tc_nsattributedstring.rb
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/osx/cocoa.rb:12:in `require': No such

Is there something I can do to remedy this situation, or is the panther

[Rubycocoa-talk] using NSRange, NSRect, and other structs?

[John L. <jo...@jo...>]

I've been doing quite a bit of development with ruby-cocoa, and 
completely enjoying the experience!

However, I'm having difficulty dealing with the Cocoa structures like 
NSRect, NSRange, and so on.  I know there are Ruby classes to manage 
these, and they generally work fine.  But I find that I cannot pass 
those objects directly to the Cocoa methods that use them; instead, I 
must call #to_a.  For example:

	range = self.selectedRange
	# at this point, range is an NSRange object	
	textStorage.removeAttribute(OSX.NSKernAttributeName,
		:range, range.to_a) 	# <-- .to_a needed here!

The same thing seems to be true with NSRect, and probably with any 
struct-based "object" (I realize these aren't first-class objects).

Tonight, I ran into a related problem: NSLayoutManager's 
-lineFragmentRectForGlyphAtIndex:effectiveRange: method needs a 
*pointer* to an NSRange struct.  I tried many possibilities, and 
finally ended up with this:

	# set up a dummy range to have somewhere to store the actual range
	range = [0,0].pack('II')

	rect = layoutManager.lineFragmentRectForGlyphAtIndex(i,
		:effectiveRange, range)

	range = NSRange.new(range.unpack('II'))

This seems neither elegant nor portable, although it does work.

Is there a better way to do this?

PS: I have a sense of deja vu when using Ruby with Cocoa.  Back in the 
mid-1980s, I programmed classic Mac OS (5? 6?) using Think C.  All the 
Apple reference material was in Pascal, so I got to be pretty good at 
*reading* Pascal, but no good at writing it.  I feel much the same 
nowadays: I can't write very good Obj-C programs, but I can read enough 
of it to translate it to Ruby. :)

RubyCocoa requires /usr/bin/cpp3 in 'ruby install.rb config'. If your 
Mac doesn't have /usr/bin/cpp3, rubycocoa that you build would be broken.

Please install gcc3.1 from XcodeTools1.5 to install /usr/bin/cpp3.

[Rubycocoa-talk] Building, again

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

Hi, all!

I have now installed the panther branch as suggested and, with 1.8.2, I =20=

did have to modify gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb as John Labovitz suggested.

I can now successuflly run gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb -- it generates two =20
files rb_Foundation.m and rb_AppKit.m.  My recollection is that the =20
original directory contained quite a few files.

When I try to run any of the demos I get something like:

I had troubles with Xcode 1.5 and a built-from-source version of 1.8.2. 
  I started in on getting it to work, but realized it was easily to wimp 
out and revert to Xcode 1.2 and use the DarwinPorts version of ruby and 
rb-cocoa.

That line should be parsing a C-style "enum { a, b, c }" statement, 
right?  Then those braces ({}) should be quoted:

	re = /\benum\b.*\{([^}]*)\}/

The middle brace doesn't need the quote, as it's in a character class 
(I think that's what that's called).

Wow, I'm glad someone found that message useful. Or, well, I guess not, 
but almost?

Anyway, I hadn't realized that Xcode 1.5 was out, so I decided to get 
it and re-try building RubyCocoa again. I'm on 10.3.5, XCode 1.5, ruby 
1.8.1. Checked out RubyCocoa from source, but retrieved the 
rubycocoa-panther branch. Ran ruby gen_cocoa_wrapper.rb no problems, 
both with Fink-installed ruby and system default ruby.

I would recommend trying /usr/bin/ruby, then trying the 
rubycocoa-panther branch. By the way, line 45 of och_analyzer3.rb is, 
for me:

       re = /\benum\b.*{([^}]*)}/

I have no difficulties with that line. Try typing it directly into an 
irb command line and see if it gives you a regexp warning.

[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...

[Pierre T. <p.t...@bi...>]

Hello,

I have installed Ruby Cocoa but when I run:

> require 'osx/cocoa'
> snd_files =`ls /System/Library/Sounds/*.aiff`.split
> snd_files.each do |path|
>   snd = OSX::NSSound.alloc.initWithContentsOfFile_byReference(path, 
> true)
>   snd.play
>   sleep 0.5
> end

I have the following error:

> playSound.rb:1:in `require': No such file to load -- osx/cocoa 
> (LoadError)
>         from playSound.rb:1

What should I do?

Regards.

Does anyone know of any example projects using the Rubycocoa bindings to access
objects in WebObjects Framework?  Is this possible?

[Rubycocoa-talk] Rubycocoa and WOF??

[John N. A. <li...@li...>]

Is there a way to use Ruby with Web Objects Framework 5.2?

Are there any example projects available of Rubycocoa bindings to WOF?

All comments welcome.

Thx for the tip, but unfortunately it didn't solve my problem ... I get  
the same error-message mentioned before ...

If I do the tutorial on Apple's ADC-site  
(http://developer.apple.com/cocoa/cocoabindings.html) as a  
ruby-project, and run from Xcode, I get a different message:

2004-05-30 12:49:15.280 bindprefs[3209] *** -[NSCFNumber bytes]:  
selector not recognized
/Users/hvs/tmp/bindprefs/build/bindprefs.app/Contents/Resources/ 
rb_main.rb:19:in `NSApplicationMain': NSApplicationMain -  
NSInvalidArgumentException - *** -[NSCFNumber bytes]: selector not  
recognized (OSX::OCException)
	from  
/Users/hvs/tmp/bindprefs/build/bindprefs.app/Contents/Resources/ 
rb_main.rb:19

The Objective-C version is working fine.


Is Cocoa Bindings working with RubyCocoa? Any successtories amongst the  
listas?

If so, it may just be a shaky install on my system ...
