I am attempting to call an interface method for a .net class and am
having difficulty. I’m using IronRuby v1.1.2 and working with
ScintillaNet, a .net wrapper for the Scintilla control.
A portion of the ScintillaNet::Scintilla class is below:
namespace ScintillaNet
{
…
public partial class Scintilla : Control, INativeScintilla,
ISupportInitialize
{
…
}
}
And a portion of the ScintillaNet::INativeScintilla interface is below:
namespace ScintillaNet
{
public interface INativeScintilla
{
…
void BackTab();
…
}
}
I came across another forum discussion
http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/ironruby-core/2009-January/003520.html,
which seems to fall along the lines of what I’m trying to do, but I’m
not sure the features discussed there are implemented yet.
I’ve reduced the troublesome code to a relatively short length to play
with alternative approaches:
require “bin/ScintillaNet”
class ScintillaNet::Scintilla
include ScintillaNet::INativeScintilla
def self.ztest2()
z = ScintillaNet::Scintilla.new()
puts "z[#{z}]"
#; z.BackTab() # undefined method `BackTab' for
ScintillaNet.Scintilla:ScintillaNet::Scintilla (NoMethodError)
#; ScintillaNet::INativeScintilla(z).BackTab() # undefined method
INativeScintilla' for ScintillaNet:Module (NoMethodError) #; ScintillaNet::INativeScintilla.BackTab() # undefined method BackTab’ for ScintillaNet::INativeScintilla:Module (NoMethodError)
puts “fence”
end
end
ScintillaNet::Scintilla.ztest2()
puts “done”
The three approaches above yield the errors to the right of each line.
Thanks in advance for any assistance you might be able to provide.
