SetProperty converts Ruby string "innerHTML" to CLR string because its first
parameter is strongly typed to CLR string. The second parameter is not and
hence no conversion occurs.
This should work:
new_ctl.SetProperty("innerHTML", new_value)
new_ctl.GetProperty("innerHTML").should.equal new_value
The current implementation "==" compares Ruby strings and CLR strings by value.
The implementation of "eql?" doesn't:
>>> x = 'str'
=> "str"
>>> y = x.to_clr_string
=> 'str'
>>> x == y
=> true
>>> x.eql? y
=> false
Which is similar to numerics in MRI:
irb(main):001:0> 1 == 1.0
=> true
irb(main):002:0> 1.eql? 1.0
=> false
irb(main):003:0> exit
Would it be better to override "eql?" on string to compare Ruby string and CRL
string equal if they have the same value?

Subject: [Ironruby-core] agdlr test w/ ruby string
Hey,
Moonlight currently fails the following agldr test:
it 'verifies SetProperty works' do
new_ctl = HtmlPage.Document.CreateElement('div')
new_value = "This is added by Merlin SL Test!"
new_ctl.SetProperty("innerHTML", new_value)
new_ctl.GetProperty("innerHTML").should.equal new_value.to_clr_string
end
it passes if I change the SetProperty line to:
new_ctl.SetProperty("innerHTML", new_value.to_clr_string)
SetProperty's signature is `void SetProperty(string name, object
value)`, so I'd except it to convert the name "innerHTML" to a
clr_string, but not the value argument.
Is IronRuby doing some conversion here, or is it Silverlight doing
interesting things when marshalling the value?
