Trouble with Ruby-Cocoa Tutorial (IKImageBrowserView)

Question

Hello, I'm trying to learn some Mac programming using Ruby so I tried making the project in the Apple tutorial ( http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/RubyPythonCocoa/Articl es/BuildingRubyCocoaAppl.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40005425 )
Unfortunately it won't run. Every time the console shows this error:
"Unknown class IKImageBrowserView in Interface Builder file."
(it defaults to NSView and then more errors result when it gets to the app's code.)
The tutorial there says that even though IKImageBrowserView isn't in the Library, IB "knows about it" but I feel like something's missing. Although I had no problems changing the Custom Object's Class, and connecting it up. It's only once it tries to run that it fails.

RubyCocoa is neither sanctioned nor supported by Apple
Au contraire: the primary maintainer for RubyCocoa is Laurent Sansonetti, the Apple engineer responsible for Ruby in OS X and also the author of MacRuby, and RubyCocoa is bundled in OS X 10.5 and later along with the Python-Cocoa bridge, PyObjC.
so any sub-contracted documentation they might supply is probably not going to be kept up to date. That particular tutorial is from last year and things have almost certainly changed since then; you should look for something more recent from the project's maintainers
Quite possibly; I believe that some of the PyObjC documentation on Apple's site also dates back to Tiger. File a bug on it; IIRC, there's a link at the bottom of each page for doing so.
