Hello everyone,
I would like to capture of Ming-Ruby in a Ruby String/StringIO.
I tried the following w/o success:
tmp = $stdout
flash = $stdout = StringIO.new
m.output
$stdout = tmp
The low level C output methods doesnt understand about
$stdout and keeps dumping bytes to the standard output.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any help.
George.

Well this idea is a hack obviously but have you tried:
# mingout.rb
...
ming.output
# mingin.rb
m = IO::popen("mingout.rb")
data = m.read
The massive downside to this is that it requires two programs, and I
am sure there is
a better way, but it should work

Well i dont want 2 programs...
I dont want ot save to a file with m.save('filename') and use File.read
to get
the data either, any other solution?
-g.
Well I downloaded the ming source, and looked at the code for the
output method. It uses putchar() directly. You'd probably have to
patch the ming source and create a method that could use fputc( ) and
took a FILE* or something similiar (suitably wrapped up in a ruby
object) as an argument. Sorry
