Using CLLocationCoordinate2D structs raises TypeError

[thomas@…]

When using the CoreLocation framework coordinates are expressed in a C-struct CLLocationCoordinate2D as defined in CLLocation.h of the CoreLocation framework.

Using these coordinates in macruby (tested with 0.5 release and 0.6 trunk) results in a TypeError:

unrecognized runtime type `{?=dd}' (TypeError)

The following is a minimal program to demonstrate the bug:

#!/usr/bin/env macruby
framework 'CoreLocation'

def locationManager(lm, didUpdateToLocation: to, fromLocation: from)
  p to.coordinate
end

manager = CLLocationManager.alloc.init
manager.delegate = self
manager.startUpdatingLocation

NSRunLoop.currentRunLoop.runUntilDate(NSDate.distantFuture)

Hi, thanks for reporting!

This is a duplicate of #533. The problem is that CoreLocation is not yet covered by BridgeSupport, and thus, MacRuby is not aware of the specific CL types.
