Moved from PythonVsRuby : (See also PythonRubyAttrComparison , PythonRubyInitializer ) In RubyLanguage , every object has a method called "method_missing", which is called every time an undefined method is invoked. You can override method_missing, for super-reflective ease in creating things such as facades. Does PythonLanguage have this feature? In Python you would override the method __getattr__(self, name). From this method you can either delegate to another method or throw an exception.

All that you need to get Ruby-Processing going is Ruby (1.8 or 1.9) and Java (1.5 or 1.6) — and your machine probably came with both of those baked-in. Then, naturally, you’ll need to get your hands on Ruby-Processing itself. It’s available as a Ruby Gem: sudo gem install ruby-processing Ruby-Processing provides you with the rp5 command, which is what you’ll use to run all the Ruby-Processing commands. Try typing rp5 --help to get a brief overview of the options.

Xcode 4.3 MacRuby compatible problem workaround - 東 . Blog
Since Xcode 4.3 has became a standalone app, it’s no longer installed in the /Developer directory. This cause the MacRuby project template disappear from Xcode 4.3.

RubyCocoa
http://rubycocoa.sourceforge.net/doc/ http://www.rubycocoa.com Ruby is a dream language to write Cocoa code in -- you get automatic garbage collection and an algol syntax, eg: box = [[ NSBox alloc] initWithFrame: NSZeroRect ]; [box setEnabled:NO]; would be written in Ruby as:
It's exciting times for MacRuby developers. MacRuby 0.10 was recently released, and Xcode 4 is finally out. And while Apple has announced that MacRuby will be included in Lion, it will be a private framework, not a public one.
