I just released version 0.2.0 of this evening (morning).
The primary feature added was the distinction between “freezing” and “rebasing” time. In 0.1.0, Timecop.travel would actually freeze time. This is no longer the case. Rather, a time offset will be calculated, and a running clock is simulated by always offsetting the time returned by Time.now (and friends) by the original offset.
(Note that time can still be frozen with Timecop.freeze.)
I just released a minor update to to fix a bug the original release had that caused the ANT commands to fail on Windows. If you’ve already installed the gem before, then simply run:
$> gem update puremvc-gento get the new version. If you’re installing for the first time, refer to the original blog post for instructions.

When trying to run to import my subversion repository into git I got the following error, followed by a Perl stack trace:

I just published a code generation tool I’ve been working on lately. It’s an ANT-based tool, but is distributed via , which allows it to be easily installed as a command-line tool once you have , rubygems, and installed.
Once you have those programs installed, simply enter ($> just denotes you are at a prompt on the command line)
$> gem install puremvc-gen
and the tool will be installed. Read on to see how to use it…
I needed to display an Image inside of a ComboBox for a recent project. The image of a selectedItem needed to appear in the ComboBox when it is collapsed and the image needed to be specified as a String.
I was surprised that a quick search didn’t find any components to allow this. The closest was a , however this required the image to be embedded into the application.
So I simply extended ComboBox to include an Image within it, and added some sizing calculations so it would respect padding. An example follows below:
