Hello Fred, I am not sure why I did that. I think NSObject is what I would I have done if I was thinking it through.

Thanks!

Hi Konrad, many thx for your excellent idea to follow Aaron Hillegass book, I am trying to learn in parallel Cocoa/Obj-c and MacRuby. Any reason why you chose to subclass MyController from NSWindowController? I tried to stick to Aaron example, and subclassed a Foo class from NSObject, and also does the job:

class Foo < NSObject
attr_accessor :messages
def seed(sender)
t = Time.now
srand t.to_i
@messages.stringValue=”Generated seed using time: “+t.to_s
end
def generate(sender)
@messages.stringValue=(rand(100)+1).to_s
end
def awakeFromNib @messages.stringValue=”Click seed first…”
end
end

Great site, really useful.. Could someone tell me which is best to use out of MacRuby or RubyCocoa, or are they the same thing? Many thanks…

Keep them coming. This is a great screencast, and there is definitely a shortage of them.

This is really sweet. So nice to have something to help with those first few moments with InterfaceBuilder. Thank you.

Thanks for this article. I never thought it would be that easy or fun to get Sparkle updates working in my app.

My son is interested in learning to program, and specifically for his new iTouch. I’d rather he learn (and I teach him) Ruby instead of Objective-C. Can one use MacRuby on the latest iPhone SDK?
