Hash : TypeError: can't convert Symbol into Integer

[Une Bévue]

here is my code :

h = Hash.new (same error with h = {} )
h[ath] = "/Users/yt/lib/ruby-i386/"
puts "# -> h[ath] = #{h[ath]}"
info_for(h[ath]).each {|k,v| puts "# -> #{k} (#{k.class}) => #{v}
(#{v.class})"}


with :
def info_for(h)
raise ArgumentError, "The file '#{h[ath]}' does not exist!" unless
File.exist?(h[ath])
a = MacTypes::Alias.path(h[ath])
ho = OSAX::ScriptingAddition.new('StandardAdditions',
StandardAdditions).info_for(a.desc)
h = h.merge(ho)
h = original_item(h) if h[:alias]
return h
end

the line which raises this TypeError: can't convert Symbol into Integer
is the first of info_for(h) that's to say :
raise ArgumentError, "The file '#{h[ath]}' does not exist!" unless
File.exist?(h[ath])

clearly i'm in the dark ))

here is my code :

if i change the starting point to :

h = {ath => "/Users/yt/lib/ruby-i386/"}

same error at same line )))

here is my code :

h =3D Hash.new =A0(same error with h =3D {} )
h[ath] =3D "/Users/yt/lib/ruby-i386/"
puts "# -> h[ath] =3D #{h[ath]}"
info_for(h[ath]).each {|k,v| puts "# -> #{k} (#{k.class}) =3D> #{v}
(#{v.class})"}

You are calling info_for with h[ath] which is"/Users/yt/lib/ruby-i386/"

def info_for(h)
=A0raise ArgumentError, "The file '#{h[ath]}' does not exist!" unless
File.exist?(h[ath])



the line which raises this TypeError: can't convert Symbol into Integer
is the first of info_for(h) that's to say :
raise ArgumentError, "The file '#{h[ath]}' does not exist!" unless
File.exist?(h[ath])

This then tries to evaluate:

"/Users/yt/lib/ruby-i386/"[ath]

J'esp=E8re qu'il est peu un plus lumineux maintenant.

I've found MY error, it isn't in info_for(h) but rather in the calling :
truc = info_for(h[ath])

better using :
truc = info_for(h)
....

Merci, j'avais vu ma connerie entre-temps )))
