Mystery

Michaelv

So I'm writing a script, nothing too fancy.
It's not fully working yet, but functionally it is (some methods are puts instead)
The mystery is that every time the script ends, at the time I select the selection tool I get this message in the console:

@unknownuser said:

Error: #<ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (1 for 0)>
/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/LIBFREDO6_Dir_43/Lib6Traductor.rb:155:in `deactivate'

Needless to say I have the traductor and the LIBFREDO_Dir, bu I am in no way calling them within the script, nor sending ay instruction that should create this.

Also my script end is a standard deactivate method as follows:

@unknownuser said:

def deactivate
Sketchup::set_status_text("",SB_PROMPT)
Sketchup::set_status_text("",SB_VCB_LABEL)
Sketchup::set_status_text("",SB_VCB_VALUE)
end

I'm on a MAC

Anybody can help? Fredo?

Are all of your methods wrapped inside a module and/or class ?
I'd be surprised that Fredo has a raw 'deactivate' method I suspect you do !
It might be an observer trapping your error into his own error reporting, assuming it's his tool's error...
The standard Tool deactivate method is
def deactivate(**view**)
...Try adding that inside a Tool class...
???

It looks to me as not.

He is defining a global method deactivate within Object, and it's getting inherited by EVERYTHING, including Fredo's modules.

YES! That did it!

Yes it was all within a class. Just adding "(view)" solved the problem. I didn't change anything else. The deactivate method was within the class and still is.

Yes indeed I strongly suspected that Fredo had nothing to do with this.

Thanks TIG and Dan.
