REPL
Rubymotion has an interactive console
(REPL - Read-eval-print loop)
very similar to
irb
that allows us to launch an app, and to execute some code in a
real-time, without rebuilding the app. Try to launch the app from
your terminal with
rake,
wait when it will get launched, and try to use the console as usual:
x = 10
y = 20
x * y
# => 200
You can create and show screens, show alerts, and do whatever you want right there in your console. Let's try to present an alert view for example:
app_delegate = UIApplication.sharedApplication
alert = UIAlertView.alloc.initWithTitle "Hi",
message: "I'm alert view!",
delegate: app_delegate,
cancelButtonTitle: "Cancel",
otherButtonTitles: nil
alert.show
