Hi list! I'm writing a RubyCocoa app, but my question is on the Cocoa API...
I'm trying to unit test a view class. As it is very thin (just delegates all work to the controller), all I want to check is that my connections (e.g. outlets and actions) are hooked up correctly. I've been trying to: 1. Create an instance of my class 2. use NSBundle::loadNibFile: externalNameTable: withZone: to load the nib 3. check the connections The docs for loadNibFile (http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSBundle_AppKitAdditions/Reference/Reference.html) seem to suggest that you can pass objects in: "A name table whose keys identify objects associated with your program or the nib file. The newly unarchived objects from the nib file use this table to connect to objects in your program." But I can't get it to work after hours! This code is in ruby, but it's just bridged to the corresponding Cocoa calls: view = MyView.new # subclass of NSWindowController NSApplication.sharedApplication top_level = [] # I've tried passing everything I could think of here: - view # the object instance - "My View" => view # NSDictionary with key object name in IB and value object instance - MyView => view # NSDictionary with class name / object entry # I Also tried passing the object, and object-containing dictionaries below # e.g. dictionaryWithObjects_forKeys [NSApp, top_level, view], [NSNibOwner, NSNibTopLevelObjects, "My View"] context = NSDictionary::dictionaryWithObjects_forKeys [NSApp, top_level], [NSNibOwner, NSNibTopLevelObjects] NibPath = ".../RandomAppRuby.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/MainMenu.nib" OSX::NSBundle::loadNibFile_externalNameTable_withZone NibPath, context, NSApp.zone Thanks in advance for any guidance!
