Greetings all. I have some controller code that uses win32ole (only available on windows). This code is now solid, and I''d now like to resume development on (any) other OS(grin). But alas, the controller bails because the OS specific library can''t be found. Can I conditionally specify action code compilation (and a require '...

I''m evaluating FXRuby for my application. So far everything is going pretty well. The news on the book is good, but I wish it were available today! First off, I''m not much of a Windows programmer (that''s what makes FXRuby so valuable to me). I''m using win32ole to interface to a custom ocx. Calling methods of the ocx works fine. Now I need to receive event info from the ocx and update my application window. I''m lost on how to get this started. Are there any examples that might pave the way? Pick axe has win32ole event receiving paragraph, bu...

Dan/Park, What are your thoughts about implemented portion of the win32utils family that are written in ruby utilizing WIN32OLE. I have found myself writing decent amount of ruby code accessing the Windows Scripting Host (WSH) object models. I have a few scripts which could be added. I do not believe the functionality is currently available with win32utils: - map network drives - determine all drive letters in use...

Hello all, I''m having trouble with the WIN32 file opening. I don''t'' know how to tell if this is a WIN32OLE issue or an issue with the application (Adobe Illustrator CS2) Review the included files below, which exist within a rails application. When IllustratorMinimalTest is run, #testFullPath succeeds, #testFileName fails. Thanks in advance for any advice on how to enable file-name-only referencing to...

Hi everyone, So, who wants to rewrite the WIN32OLE library? I think I''ve got most everything you''ll need in the windows-pr library, such as Windows::COM::Automation, Windows::Error, etc. I can add anything that''s missing. Advantages include: * No compiler required * Easier to debug * A potentially better and more flexib...

If you are running on Windows you can use create and read speadsheets using the ''win32ole'' require This sample should give you the basic idea ------ def export require ''win32ole'' @sort_by = ''last_name'' current_user = ''steve'' @records = Contact.find( :all, :conditions => [&quot...

i was suffering from a massive memory leak in my application. after searching and testing for quite a while i finally found that it wasn''t my app that had a leak but the win32ole support that was used by the ADO driver in sqlserver adapter. the solution to fix the leak was to install ruby 1.8.5p52 or 1.8.6p36 but sadly as soon i install one of the fixed releases mongrel won''t start as service anymore. the latest version i was able to run as a service is 1.8.5p35...

Hi all, I am newbie to Ruby and web programming as well. My show.rhtml is like, . .. ... <% require ''win32ole'' %> <% ie = WIN32OLE.new(''InternetExplorer.Application'') %> <% ie.visible = true %> <% ie.gohome %> ... .. . At server, when I access http://.../show it''ll open Iexplorer.exe as expected, but when I access same from different m/c it opens Ie...

i''m running ruby 1.8.5 and rails 1.2.3 on windows with a bunch of mongrels that are proxybalanced via apache 2.2.4 the db adapter i''m using is the sqlserver one in ADO mode. so it''s using win32ole. when a mongrel service is freshly started it consumes about 40 megs of ram. but about each and every request is leaking memory. about 20 megs per hour(!!!). so after half a day the mongrel processes are at 300 meg each and the server barely responds at all. at first i thought i have a bad memor...

...: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=414&aid=25792&group_id=85 Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 3 Submitted By: Daniel Berger (djberg96) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: Create a pure Ruby win32-ole library Initial Comment: The current Win32OLE library is a C monster, has some bugs, and doesn''t have a particularly good interface. I think a pure Ruby version would be easier to write and maintain, could have a more Ruby-ish interface, and could be installed as a gem instead of people having to wait for the next release of Ruby.

Hi, I am using features of MS Word 2003 on Win XP in my rails application. The server has Win XP installed. I am able to open a document, save as HTML etc. if I run the app using mongrel_rails start ... on command prompt. I use the Win32OLE support for Ruby: doc = WIN32OLE.new(''Word.Application'') However, at the deployment site, I have configured the app to run as a Windows Service using the mongrel: mongrel_rails service::install -N EDiscussions -c appdir -p 80 -e production The application runs fine except for th...

To start I will say I have read through the read "Problem with threads" to try and work around this problem, but I do not think I understand what is happening enough to make use of the info I found there. My app is pretty basic and does some text processing on 2 files and uses WIN32OLE to take the data and put it an excel sheet. The processing is really fast, but loading up Excel and doing output via WIN32OLE is taking a little bit. I''m fine with the speed, but while its doing the processing and output the entire GUI freezes and looks like crap for about 5 seconds. B...

Hi all, Just looking over fole_s_connect() in win32ole.c and I noticed this bit: hr = CLSIDFromProgID(pBuf, &clsid); ... hr = GetActiveObject(&clsid, 0, &pUnknown); ... hr = pUnknown->lpVtbl->QueryInterface( pUnknown, &IID_IDispatch, (void **)&pDispatch ); Using win32-api, that would be something like: IID_IUnknown...

.../library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/winprog /winprog/using_the_windows_headers.asp Based on that, I think we need a patch for mkmf when on Windows that sets _WIN32_WINNT automatically based on platform. This is the basic code I''ve come up with: require "mkmf" require "win32ole" require "socket" # We need to get the exact version number and set _WIN32_WINNT accordingly host = Socket.gethostname cs = "winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate,(security)}//#{host}/root/cimv 2" wmi = WIN32OLE.connect(cs) major = nil minor = nil wmi.Instances...

...was to setup a COM server and a class. I tried to download Ralph Mason''s rubycom package, but the link is dead. I''ve emailed Ralph, but if rubycom isn''t being maintained any more, I think we should work on a COM/DCOM interface next. Or, is this already possible with Win32OLE? Regards, Dan
