Hi
Which is the most stable version of FXRuby that can be used with ruby
1.8.7 (2008-05-31 patchlevel 0)?
I am having lots of trouble installing fxruby using gem.
root at at91sam9263ek:~$ gem install fxruby-1.6.19.gem
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing fxruby-1.6.19.gem:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
/usr/local/bin/ruby extconf.rb
Gem files will remain installed in
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.6.19 for inspection.
Results logged to
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.6.19/ext/fox16/gem_make.out
root at at91sam9263ek:~$ cat
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.6.19/ext/fox16/gem_make.out
/usr/local/bin/ruby extconf.rb
The foxlib example program ''Calculator'' works well. Using
libFOX-1.6.so.0.0.36. But fxruby install doesnt finish.
During my previous install on I used libFOX-1.6.so.0.0.34. Could it be
any bug in ibFOX-1.6.so.0.0.36?
Trying out a source install now.
Please help me.
regards
Nataraj

I''m running Ruby 1.8.6-p368, but Ruby 1.8.7-p0 should *probably* work too.> I am having lots of trouble installing fxruby using gem. > > root at at91sam9263ek:~$ gem install fxruby-1.6.19.gem > Building native extensions.

The gem_make.out file should tell us that.> During my previous install on I used libFOX-1.6.so.0.0.34. Could it be > any bug in ibFOX-1.6.so.0.0.36?No.> Trying out a source install now.OK, if that doesn''t work either, please send me the gem_make.out file from your failed gem installation. Thanks, Lyle
Hi Lyle Got it working by fiddling a lot. I am working on an Arm9 embedded board with Linux. Had to do a lot of cross compiling, copying folders etc. On a project with dead line on 10th. I may need your help profusely. Kindly help me out. I am in the process of adding linux drivers for Camera, and biometric using finger print. After that I need Ruby to talk to the drivers or libraries and get the validation onto FXruby forms. Please keep in touch as I am desperate.
