Hi Everyone, Over the past couple of weeks wxruby-swig has made a lot of progress. Over 100 classes have been added with attempts to mimic the existing wxruby interfaces. While still not as stable as wxruby, stability has increased dramatically. Finally, it has been built on Linux, Mac, and MSVC. This email is an invitation to try out wxruby-swig for yourself. The source code is in CVS and

We''ve had some discussion in the past about the wxruby vs wxruby-swig name, and how they are a bit confusing. My big problem with ''wxruby-swig'' is that unless you know what ''swig'' is, it''s not a terribly useful (or sexy) postfix. It''s like naming a car after it''s manufacturing process - "the all new Acura

I currently use DialogBlocks to generate my dialogs for wxWidgets apps I write in C++. DialogBlocks has the ability to generate XRC resources which I would like to use with wxRuby, is this possible? I am very new to Ruby and it looks like a great language and with wxRuby it looks like a great solution for quick in house applications. Thanks Sean Long

I''m just trying to plan out my week, and I wanted to see how everyone felt about a 0.5.0 release of wxRuby (not wxruby-swig). Are we ready for this? If not, what remains to be done? Curt

Sorry things have gone silent on the release front, but I have some good news: I''ve gotten wxruby-swig to build as a OS X framework. This has a couple of ramifications 1) wxruby for the Mac will finally exactly like its Linux and PC counterparts, menu bar and all. 2) Bundling wxruby applications becomes a lot easier. 3) The next binary installer should be able to support darwinports,

I''m trying to build wxruby-swig on windows with the idea of building a windows installer for it. I think that this would go a long way toward encouraging windows developers to try out wxruby-swig. What do you think? Are we far enough along to contemplate a release? Building wxruby-swig on windows is actually going pretty smoothly, but I want to build it with vc++ 7.1 to match the

Hi Following on from some talk last year of creating gems for wxruby, I''ve attached a first try at them (for 0.6.0, not wxruby-swig). I mainly made them because I want to ease installation of Weft QDA by adding wxruby (and sqlite) as gem dependencies, but hopefully they will be generally useful. A couple of queries: 1) Who should be listed as author? 2) It doesn''t include

Hi, I''m trying to compile wxruby-1.9.2. This is my first time using rake. All I get is the following: (in /bld/lib/wxruby-1.9.2) rake aborted! can''t convert nil into String /bld/lib/wxruby-1.9.2/rakefile:48 (See full trace by running task with --trace) And with --trace: (in /bld/lib/wxruby-1.9.2) rake aborted! can''t convert nil into

Hi I''ve added a page to the wiki to show some screenshots opf the wxRuby samples: http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl?ScreenShots I''d like to get some screenshots for OS X to add to this, if anyone could supply them please. It would be nice to show the minimal sample for all three platforms, plus perhaps some of the ones that aren''t included there. Also if

Last week I was struggling to get xrc built into wxRuby and finally got it to compile. The problem I am now having is that the normal samples are not working at all (have not even tried any xrc stuff yet). So to test if it is a problem with xrc or my build process I tried compiling wxRuby without XRC, this caused the same error to be printed out as the failed XRC build. The output (in both

I have a WxRuby application that takes a few inputs from the user and uses that information to search through a large file for matches. The application works very well, with one exception. If I click anywhere in the frame while the application is searching through the long file, the application hangs. Has anyone experienced anything similar to this? Any suggestions on how I can fix this? Thanks

Dear wxruby users I''ve been trying to get wxruby-based weft-qda 0.9.6 running on a linux from scratch 6.1 system (this list had a discussion about weft-qda last year and alex fenton''s also been trying to help me out - no luck so far). I get stuck with wxruby 0.60 (I think). I compiled wxruby against wxGTK 2.4.2 (without gtk2, without unicode - gtk+ version is 1.2.10) - after

Hi everyone ! i can''t make wxruby work on my debian box, i installed wxruby2preview with the gem command line tool but when i try to run one of the samples, i get this error message : dialogs.rb:1:in `require'': no such file to load -- wxruby (LoadError) from dialogs.rb:1 i searched this mailing list a bit, i tried with the -rubygem argument, i get this error :

is it possible to intercept keystrokes using wxruby?

These files add the virtual function AcceptFocus that was missing from wxWindow.h. In order to make things right I had to make sure it was also declared in all the places where wxWindows also changes it. Also, in wxTextCtrl on Windows GetDefaultAttributes needs to be redeclared. I haven''t downloaded the Unix and Mac headers for 2.6.3 so I couldn''t see if it also applies

Hi, Has this problem been resolved? I encountered the same problem on my FC3 system with wxGTK-2.4.2 and wxruby-0.6. Thanks. Stephen [Wxruby-users] Re: Problem building wxRuby: htmlproc.h not found *Nick* devel at nicreations.com

Hi, It seems like the wxruby homepage has been replaced by a mortgage broker. I do need to refinance, but I was more interested in some documentation on wxruby. Is this a sign that the project is fading into oblivion? If so, I would really like to know what new cross-platform library people are using for developing ruby desktop applications. Josh

A while back there was a discussion about what version of WxWidgets to target with WxRuby-SWIG. I don''t remember seeing any resolution, but I gather that thus far WxRuby-SWIG has continued to target 2.4.2, with the thinking that WxRuby-SWIG would quickly mature to the point that it could replace WxRuby, and once that was done the focus would shift to working with 2.5.x.

I''m fairly new to the Ruby world, particularly WxRuby, so please forgive me if this is ground that''s been covered in the past. I''m trying to load a frame from an XRC file (created using DialogBlocks), and I''m having trouble getting an instance of the Gauge object using the Wx::Window.find_window_by_xxx methods. I''m trying this on Windows XP,
