Sketchup::load under different binding?

[thomthom]

Is it possible to use Sketchup::load from within a module, but have the loaded content evaled under the top level binding?

I'm trying to load RBS files, but it all gets wrapped inside the current module.

IS the RBS scrambled code itself namespace wrapped ??

What if the rbs code looked like this using the top level scope operator:

# I am a scrambled rbs file;

;;TT;;SubModuleName

  # code that belongs in ;;TT;;SubModuleName

end

IF the Mac's Ruby v1.8.5-p0 does not recognize the top level scope operator, then perhaps YOU force the namespace evaluation:

# I am a scrambled rbs file;

this_file = 'thisfilename.rbs'
str = %q[
TT;;SubModuleName

  # code that belongs in ;;TT;;SubModuleName

end
]
Kernel.eval( str, TOPLEVEL_BINDING, this_file, 4 )

or maybe:

# I am a scrambled rbs file;

Object.class_eval {
TT;;SubModuleName

  # code that belongs in ;;TT;;SubModuleName

end
}

Any way to do this without modifying the content of the rbs?

I remember you talking about this issue before.

But I have never seen it myself.

Did you ever post some simple barebones examples ??

If I knew what you were really trying to do... perhaps PM me. (You already know I can be discrete.)

Hmm.. what about this:

TT;;LoadManager

  # I am a namespace calling Sketchup.load;
 
  rbs_file = 'subdir/filename.rbs'

  # Evaluate the Sketchup.load() call within TOPLEVEL_BINDING;
  eval( "Sketchup;;load(#{rbs_file})", TOPLEVEL_BINDING, rbs_file, 1 )
 
end # module TT;;LoadManager

That seem to work perfectly!

Excellent!

4 trys is the charm.

Man, I love Ruby's flexibility!
