Without going into all the gory details, let's just say that since we

have no explicit control over when Ruby's garbage collector decides to
|
|
25
|

"collect" those Ruby peers that point to C++ objects that have been

26

destroyed, we need to take steps to neutralize those Ruby peer objects

so that they can't cause your application to crash in the meantime; I've

implemented a fix to take care of this situation.

This of course isn't necessary in Ruby, where <tt class="classname">Array</tt> objects "know" their lengths. As a result, functions such as <tt class="methodname">FXWindow::acquireClipboard()</tt>, whose C++ declaration looks like this:</p><table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%"><tr><td><pre class="programlisting">FXbool acquireClipboard(const FXDragType *types, FXuint numTypes);</pre></td></tr></table><p>are called from Ruby code by passing in a single <tt class="classname">Array</tt> argument, e.g.</p><table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%"><tr><td><pre class="programlisting">myWindow.acquireClipboard(typesArray)</pre></td></tr></table></div><div class="simplesect" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e3119"></a>Functions that return values by reference</h2></div></div><div></div></div><p>Many FOX methods take advantage of the C++ language feature of returning values by reference.

FXRuby exposes all of these functions but also provides aliases that look more like regular Ruby attribute accessors. The names for these accessors are based on the FOX method names; for example, <tt class="methodname">setBackgroundColor</tt> and <tt class="methodname">getBackgroundColor</tt> are aliased to <tt class="methodname">backgroundColor=</tt> and <tt class="methodname">backgroundColor</tt>, respectively.</p><p>In many cases these aliases allow you to write more compact and legible code. For example, consider this code snippet:</p><table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%"><tr><td><pre class="programlisting">aLabel.setText(aLabel.getText() + " (modified)")</pre></td></tr></table><p>Now consider a different code snippet, using the aliased accessor method names:</p><table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%"><tr><td><pre class="programlisting">aLabel.text += " (modified)"</pre></td></tr></table><p>While these two are functionally equivalent, the latter is a bit easier to read and understand at first glance.</p></div><div class="simplesect" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e3592"></a>Message Passing</h2></div></div><div></div></div><p>FOX message maps are implemented as static C++ class members. With FXRuby, you just associate messages with message handlers in the class <tt class="methodname">initialize</tt> method using the <tt class="methodname">FXMAPFUNC()</tt>, <tt class="methodname">FXMAPTYPE()</tt>, <tt class="methodname">FXMAPTYPES()</tt> or <tt class="methodname">FXMAPFUNCS()</tt> methods. See almost any of the example programs for examples of how this is done.</p><p>As in C++ FOX, the last argument passed to your message handler functions contains message-specific data. For instance, all <tt class="constant">SEL_PAINT</tt> messages pass an <tt class="classname">FXEvent</tt> object through this argument to give you some information about the size of the exposed rectangle. On the other hand, a <tt class="constant">SEL_COMMAND</tt> message from an <tt class="classname">FXHeader</tt> object passes the index of the selected header item through this argument. Instead of guessing what's in this last argument, your best bet is to instead invoke a member function on the sending object to find out what you need, instead of relying on the data passed through this pointer. For example, if you get a <tt class="constant">SEL_COMMAND</tt> message from an <tt class="classname">FXColorWell</tt> object, the data passed through that last argument is supposed to be the new RGB color value. Instead of trying to interpret the argument's contents, just turn around and call the color well's <tt class="methodname">getRGBA()</tt> member function to retrieve its color. Similarly, if you get a <tt class="constant">SEL_COMMAND</tt> message from a tree list, call its <tt class="methodname">getCurrentItem()</tt> method to find out which item was selected.</p></div><div class="simplesect" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e3641"></a>Catching Operating System Signals</h2></div></div><div></div></div><p>The <tt class="methodname">FXApp#addSignal</tt> and <tt class="methodname">FXApp#removeSignal</tt> methods have been enhanced to accept either a string or integer as their first argument. If it's a string (e.g. "SIGINT" or just "INT") the code will determine the corresponding signal number for you (similar to the standard Ruby library's <tt class="methodname">Process.kill</tt> module method). For examples of how to use this, see the <tt class="filename">datatarget.rb</tt> or <tt class="filename">imageviewer.rb</tt> example programs.</p></div><div class="simplesect" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e3661"></a>Support for Multithreaded Applications</h2></div></div><div></div></div><p>There is some support for multithreaded FXRuby applications, but it's not wonderful. The current implementation does what is also done in Ruby/GTK; it turns over some idle processing time to the Ruby thread scheduler to let other threads do their thing. As I learn more about Ruby's threading implementation I may try something different, but this seems to work OK for now. For a simple example, see the <tt class="filename">groupbox.rb</tt> example program, in which the clock label that appears in the lower right-hand corner is continuously updated (by a separate thread).</p><p>If you suspect that FXRuby's threads support is interfering with your application's performance, you may want to try tweaking the amount of time that the main application thread "sleeps" during idle processing; do this by setting the <tt class="classname">FXApp</tt> object's <i class="structfield"><tt>sleepTime</tt></i> attribute. The default value for <i class="structfield"><tt>FXApp#sleepTime</tt></i> is 100 milliseconds. You can also disable the threads support completely by calling <tt class="methodname">FXApp#threadsEnabled=false</tt> (and subsequently re-enable it with <tt class="methodname">FXApp#threadsEnabled=true</tt>).</p></div><div class="simplesect" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e3686"></a>Debugging Tricks</h2></div></div><div></div></div><p>As a debugging tool, you can optionally catch exceptions raised in message handlers. To turn on this feature, call the <tt class="methodname">setIgnoreExceptions(true)</tt> module method. When this is enabled, any exceptions raised in message handler functions will cause a standard stack trace to be dumped to the standard output, but then your application will, for better or worse, proceed normally.
