Bundled with Mac OS X 10.5 (stable)

RubyCocoa Hello World

Problems with RubyCocoa:

It’s a bridge

Messaging syntax is different

Ruby uses green threads

Two runtimes, two GCs

Objective-C 2.0

MacRuby 0.4

Ruby 1.9Core

FoundationGarbage Collector Runtime YARV Parser Standard

Library

Enter MacRuby

Garbage Collector Built-ins

Every Ruby class is an Objective-C classEvery Ruby object is an Objective-C object

Every Ruby method is an Objective-C method

framework ‘Cocoa’


win = NSWindow.alloc.initWithContentRect([0, 0, 200, 60], styleMask:NSTitledWindowMask | NSClosableWindowMask | NSMiniaturizableWindowMask | NSResizableWindowMask, backing:NSBackingStoreBuffered, defer:false)

win.title = 'Hello World'




app.run

MacRuby Hello World

Enter HotCocoa

HotCocoa is an idiomaticRuby API that simplifies the

configuration and wiring together of ObjC/Cocoa classes

MacRuby Hello Worldframework ‘Cocoa’







app.run

require ‘hotcocoa’; include HotCocoa







app.run

HotCocoa Hello World

HotCocoa Hello Worldrequire ‘hotcocoa’; include HotCocoa


win = window :title => ‘hello world’, :frame => [0, 0, 200, 60]




app.run




b = button :title => ‘Hello!’, :layout => {:align => :center}win << b



app.run




b = button :title => ‘Hello!’, :layout => {:align => :center}win << b

b.on_action { puts “Hello World!” }


app.run


application do


b = button :title => ‘Hello!’, :layout => {:align => :center} win << b

b.on_action { puts “Hello World!” }
