Shoes and require

Helo

I'm playing a little bit around with shoes.
Their i have a problem with require. When i want to require a file witch
is in the same Directory like the Shoes.app File i get a "no such file
to load error". Is it not possible to require files?

shoesTest.rb:
require "shoesTestb"

Shoes.app do
  $app = self
  para "lalala"
  para lala
end

shoesTestb.rb:
def lala
  'lalafunction'
end

Apparently, your current directory is not the same as where your files are and you are invoking your application by path. If so, you need to do the following before 'require':

$: << File.dirname(__FILE__)

do the following before 'require':

$: << File.dirname(__FILE__)

If you're using 1.9, then:

require 'require_relative'
require_relative('feature')

The require method doesn't take a filename as a parameter; it takes a
"feature name". Changing my thinking to this paradigm has saved me from
being frustrated with Ruby for not working the way I expect.

__FILE__ #=> (eval)
So that doesent work

If you're using 1.9, then:

Shoes is using 1.8.6

My problem is that Shoes is not working the way I expect :wink:

Try the more recent 0.r532 builds. Not only should require work,
but $0 and __FILE__ should be set right.

My apologies.

Thank you for the Tipp
I downloaded shoes-0.r532-intel.dmg tried to start it on OS X 10.5.2 on
an MacBook.
I get this Error: LSOpenFromURLSpec() failed with error -10810 for the
file /Users/fabian.
What can this be?
