#5 Playing with Cappuccino 0.7b

Posted on March 23, 2009, 5:22 pm, by Thomas, under cappuccinocasts.

In this episode, I’ll explain how to install Cappuccino 0.7b and still be able to play with 0.6. I’ll assume you went through the steps described in episode #2 : Build Cappuccino from the source.

Here are some useful links about :

Here are the commands I run to completely remove Cappuccino 0.6 at the end of the screencast (watch out, those commands really delete files …) :

sudo rm /usr/local/bin/bake
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/cplutil
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/nib2cib
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/objj
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/objjc
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/ojtest
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/press
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/steam
sudo rm -Rf /usr/local/share/objj

Your comments/remarks are welcome here!

    For ubuntu users:
    No sure what exactly the problem is here but this made building work for me if you keep getting an error “rake aborted!” “no such file to load — plist”

    sudo apt-get install ruby gem rdoc1.8
    # install gems
    wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/45905/rubygems-1.3.1.tgz
    tar xvzf rubygems-1.3.1.tgz
    cd rubygems-1.3.1 && sudo ruby setup.rb
    sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gem1.8 /usr/bin/gem
    sudo gem update
    sudo gem update –system
    cd ..
    rm -Rf rubygems-1.3.1*
    # install rake
    sudo gem install rake

    Checkout thomas’s ubuntu machine to do this the good way tho :)

    [...] Ubuntu Linux, you have to install them. Here are the commands that worked for me. I’ve also published a screencast that explains how to build [...]

    First, thanks for your very informative screencasts.

    While working thru the steps to build 0.7b, I get several errors like this:

    (in /Users/wbj/cappuccino_from_github/cappuccino/Foundation)
    rake aborted!
    undefined local variable or method `location_of_caller’ for Time:Class
    /Users/wbj/cappuccino_from_github/cappuccino/Foundation/Rakefile:14:in `new’

    I don’t know if this is a problem with my setup or a Cappuccino problem.

    Mac OS X 10.5.6
    ruby 1.8.7 (2009-04-08 patchlevel 160) [i686-darwin9]
    rake, version 0.8.4

    Thanks for any insights.

    Bill

    Thomas, I did some more drill-down about this problem and posted bug #279 to cappuccino.

    @bill : thanks for reporting. Having a look at your logs, I don’t know what’s happening. I’ll let you know if I find a solution.
