[Rubycocoa-talk] Installation problems

[Marco R. <mar...@ya...>]

Greetings,

I'm trying to install ruby-cocoa 0.4.1 on a Mac with OS X 10.4.
The installation itself ends without any error, but while I can build 
and run programs with XCode, I'm unable to run scripts from the command 
line.
I get the following error message when I try to load the libraries:

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

If I'm not wrong I should find something cocoa.rb in 
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/osx, but instead I find only the following 
files:

addressbook.rb
aeosa/
aeosa.rb

What I could do to fix it ?

Thanks,
Marco

Is there any chance you have more than one copy of ruby installed  
(e.g., from darwinports in /opt/local or from fink in /sw or self- 
installed in /usr/local)? If so, perhaps the files got installed for  
another ruby than the Apple-installed one in /usr.

You could do a Spotlight search-by-name for 'rubycocoa.bundle' to see  
where that got installed. You'd expect it at

    /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/powerpc-darwin7.<<something>>/ 
rubycocoa.bundle


Another alternative is to do the install manually. Copy  
rubycocoa.bundle from

    rubycocoa-0.4.1/ext/rubycocoa/rubycocoa.bundle into the above path

Copy the 'osx' directory from

    rubycocoa-0.4.1/framework/src/ruby/osx

into the path you identified into your original email.

I realise that's an unsatisfactory solution, but without more info  
it's hard to tell where the install went wrong.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan

First of all thanks for your answer.

I removed darwinports ruby just before installing ruby-cocoa, and in 
fact there is no 'rubycocoa.bundle' anywere on the disk, so I guess it 
must be something else.

I can't find rubycocoa.bundle in the RubyCocoa-0.4.1-tiger.dmg image I 
downloaded from sourceforge, but it is present in 
RubyCocoa-0.4.1-panther.dmg. Same thing for the other missing files. 
Could it be a problem of the tiger version of the package , or should I 
find them somewhere else ?

Thanks,
Marco

Ah! I wrongly assumed in my original message that you were installing  
from source.

I haven't tried any of the binary packages. But I just took a look at  
the RubyCocoa-0.4.1-tiger.dmg file and it seems that the installer  
package is missing the necessary files to use RubyCocoa from the  
command line (via irb or plain ruby). Hopefully the person who  
created it can fix it.

Until that is fixed, if you're able, you could install RubyCocoa from  
source. That should install the necessary files.

It seems that there are a few issues with the install process, and maybe 
that's the root of the problems with the package (or maybe it's just 
that my system is messed up so things are not working as expected :D).
The install script expect to find the folder 
'framework/build/RubyCocoa.build', but instead there is a 
'framework/build/Default/RubyCocoa.framework' folder. Copying the folder 
(not moving, part of the install script looks in the right place) to the 
parent directory seemed to fix the problem and now I'm happily playing 
with shell (cocoa) scripts.

Thanks again,
Marco

That is due to a change in Xcode 2.1.

Previously, built products were placed in the 'build' directory  
directly. Xcode 2.1 separates them by build configuration -- that's  
the 'Default' directory you're seeing (thus saving on rebuilds when  
switching between configurations).

Glad you got it to work :)

Hi,

I wrote a patch. We will release a patched source distribution
of 0.4.1.

Hi,

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/rubycocoa/rubycocoa-0.4.1-xcode-2.1-patched.tgz
(MD5: ce498e990a4ac9de289c839aaa0c0b57)

Sorry, that patch is not complete. We needed to modify extconf.rb.in 
about build process of a extention module, rubycococa.bundle. The 
released arhive includes this modification.
