I have installed a gem "Rubygsm and dependencies"
I have the send sms working via the gem
The following code is from the gem core file for receiving an sms:
# call-seq:
# receive(callback_method, interval=5, join_thread=false)
#
# Starts a new thread, which polls the device every _interval_
# seconds to capture incoming SMS and call _callback_method_
# for each, and polls the device''s internal storage for incoming
# SMS that we weren''t notified about (some modems don''t
support
# that).
#
# class Receiver
# def incoming(msg)
# puts "From #{msg.from} at #{msg.sent}:", msg.text
# end
# end
#
# # create the instances,
# # and start receiving
# rcv = Receiver.new
# m = Gsm::Modem.new "/dev/ttyS0"
# m.receive rcv.method :incoming
#
# # block until ctrl+c
# while(true) { sleep 2 }
#
# Note: New messages may arrive at any time, even if this method''s
# receiver thread isn''t waiting to process them. They are not lost,
# but cached in @incoming until this method is called.
def receive(callback, interval=5, join_thread=false)
@polled = 0
The working code....
end # Modem
end # Gsm
Where do I setup the actions and where should I place the method calls
to the object in this class
All the hashes above are descriptions I believe on how to call the
methods but need guidance.
Can I define a class within a class, say messages? I tried this but I
dont think I can
I have run it in console in my app and get failures

This code can be placed at the end of the receiver.rb file somewhere after declaring and implementing your Receiver class (just like the example here is showing). Or it could exist in it''s own file that requires receiver.rb at top. The last line of this file will loop indefinitely with a two second sleep between each loop. Use ctrl+c to stop the program as shown above. Note: I don''t see it shown here but you will need to require the gem somewhere at the very top of receiver.rb. Something like: require ''rubygems'' require ''<whatever the name of the file is for Gsm::Modem>'' In case you''ll be using this inside a Rails project somehow then adding the gem to your Gemfile should be sufficient to use the GSM::Modem class I believe. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Great :-) I will give it a try Robert, thanks for the help -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
