Haven’t been posting much of anything anywhere lately.
I’ve been working on a more detailed branch of the Ruby Shipping Gem.
I’m hoping to be able to release some of all of the edits back as either a fork or to the main branch.
Other Ruby of interest:
- Cloud-Crowd: Distributed Task Handling via Cloud
- AuctionBoss: An early look at handling the online Auction House for World of Warcraft. Looks neat though it’s just getting started since the online AH is so new.
- EventMachine: EventMachine is a pretty neat way to handle incoming and outgoing network connections, among other things. I’m using it in a current project so thought I’d link it for those that haven’t heard of it yet.
- RubyGame: RubyGame is like PyGame but for Ruby. Seriously. No insult to RubyGame but it has the same goals so I feel that it’s an apt summary
That’s about it for now.
Hopefully I’ll have something code based to post again soonish.

My code blog apparently died and I was unable to revive it via normal methods.
I’ve restored the data from a straight sql dump so some things may work incorrectly until I notice them and fix them.
On a further note, the HDDs were never replaced as they did not come back as faulty from SeaGate’s utilities and I’m too cheap to buy new ones right now.

System is reporting that my HDD is failing.
I’ll be backing it up soon then.
It just strikes me as strange that it’s failing after a little over a year.
I’ve only had one other hard drive fail on me and that was at 11 months.
I still have some older drives that work perfectly should I choose to use them and their monstrous 1 gig of space around somewhere.
Anyway, backing up to a large drive sometime soon.
Down time should be minimal for those that care.

If you’re in the San Francisco area on June 9th, check out the Titanium Beta Launch Party.
I can’t go so you should go for me!

I know it’s a little redundant because most people stumbling here will already know about it but just in case you don’t, well now you do.

WoWHorn version 1.0 is written with PR3 of Titanium.
As with any new technology this experience was a little bumpy.
This post will discuss some of those bumps, both those that involve Titanium and those that do not.
For those needing more information on either of these technologies, visit:

Starting Your Project
There have been some articles written giving overviews of the Titanium Developer application.
This is the application that helps you manage your Titanium projects, test code samples, and keep up with the Titanium community.
This tutorial isn’t about the application so much as what is involved in making your application.
For a more broad look at Titanium Developer check out the official screencast for PR3: Titanium Developer – Preview Release 3 Features.
Notes: Due to a reload of the database the images for this section have been lost. The plugin handling toggling the subsections is also no longer in support. For now all divs are visible and no images are available.
This is an old tutorial now so it will stay as is unless a request comes in.

What’s this TiApp.xml you speak of?
There hasn’t been much discussion of what’s in the tiapp.xml file since PR1 of Titanium.
Since this file controls a lot of how your program starts up and acts initially, it is important to know what it does.
The tiapp.xml file is generated automatically when your project is created via the Titanium Developer.
It can, however, be edited manually after that.

This blog is intended to provide interesting code snippets and tutorials for those that are interested.
The initial plans for content here involve: Titanium (www.titaniumapp.com), Ruby (www.ruby-lang.org), HTML(www.w3.org), CSS(www.w3.org), JavaScript(developer.mozilla.org), Python(www.python.org), and various JavaScript frameworks according to whim including JQuery(www.jquery.com) and MooTools(www.mootools.net).
Why such a large range of tools? Namely because Titanium can allow them all to work together in the same environment for huge amounts of flexability. Each of the languages listed here are things I have some experience with but I am not an expert in any of them. Hopefully something I find of interest to post here is of value to you, the reader.
