Ok, so I''m new to Ruby and wxRuby. I come from a Basic background (RealBasic). Can somebody suggest a decent IDE that is used for wxRuby. Something where I can paste in code examples and then run them immediately. (I''m a Windows Vista user) Any suggestions welcome. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I have used set_item_data with ruby objects (an array) and got a crash. The reason is simple, the objects were deallocated by the GC. The easy solution would be to accept only long parameters (like the original interface). The hard is to play by the GC''s rules and increase the reference count and decrease on deletion.

Hi I''ve been trying out the StyledTextCtrl/Scintilla component bundled with wxWidgets 2.8. Surprisingly, it''s very easy to get this working at a basic level with wxRuby (95% of credit to Roy, who originally created a SWIG file for this). So I''m wondering: should we try and integrate this into wxRuby core? Pros: - a cool component, interesting to developers - not

I''m happy to announce that wxRuby 1.9.2 is now available from Rubyforge. As usual we''ve got source and binary gems for Win32, OS X and Linux: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=35 or gem install wxruby == WHAT''S NEW == This release has a mix of new syntax features, new classes, and lots of minor fixes and additions * New shorter syntax for event handlers * New

I''m still a new user of Ruby, sort of trailling it at the moment. I''ve written a program using RealBasic which I can compile to Windows, Linux & Mac that accesses and maniuplates MySql databases. What I''m wanting to do is convert that program to wxRuby. Assuming the program is written and I''m satisfied that it works how simple is it to distribute, for

Hi I''d like to put out a 1.9.3 release perhaps later this week/weekend. If you have a chance to test the build and samples esp with latest rubygems, please do. There are still some bugs on the list, and samples to do, but this should address all the build/install probs that have come up. And it would be good to get some testing and feedback on some of the new classes. A note on the

Hello fellow wxRuby users, Well, after a long period in which I originally announced that I was creating an IDE, I have finally become satisfied enough to release a SVN Version of wxRIDE. I started the project out, and in cases where I couldn''t launch the application again, I utilized SciTE (Which uses Scintilla, same as wxRIDE), outside of that initial part, and subsequent failures to

Hey guys, I''m working on the start of incorperating wxSocket into a library that can be included with the Core, and a part of this, is to create a wxThread class, which will basically just be a barebone copy over of Ruby''s own Thread class. (This should also help when we get Ruby 2.0, which hopefully will have Native Threads, as we should still be able to get the base

so, i have a MinimalFrame class where i have a form, then, after a user add a new client i would like to send a log message on MainFrame status_bar. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Some odd bug cropped up when I made a bunch of code changes to my app recently. I started getting the following everytime I closed the app: ---------------------------------- [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13) [i386-mswin32] This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application''s support team for more information.

Hey All, Just wanted to let you guys know, that with the HTML Generated documentation from the Textile source code, does not show *''s in stuff like Wx::FileDialog. It''s interpreting this as a Bold, not as an Asterisk. Just thought you''d want to know that. L8ers, Mario Steele

Hello All, I''ve just sent off the source code for wxRuby Socket''s demo to Sean and Alex to do some final testing on Linux and MacOS X, to ensure compatability of my design with those two operating systems. Once confirmed, the demo will be posted to the SVN. What is basically entailed within these two demos, is the implementation of a Server with a GUI Front End, and the

I''ve been trying to figure out the best method for generating GUI''s with Ruby. I ended up using DialogBlock because it seems like the fastest way. But not I have to work backwards and have not done this before. How do I go from the file I generate in DialogBlock to a code in Ruby? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Following alex advices, i''ve used both "text/textctrl.rb" and "etc/threaded.rb" to build my first wxApp. I''ve changed the Sizer type mainly (from "Wx::BoxSizer" to "Wx::FlexGridSizer"). I didn''t find the way to let @log (Wx::TextCtrl) span 2 columns. At the time of writing it''s growing only vertically. And also how to get

Hey Alex and Sean, It looks like it is getting to be that time again for a new release. What are we looking at for the release time frame? I''m working still on the wxSDL type library for wxSugar, as I think this would be a great thing to create a Library for, to incorporate SDL into wxRuby. I''m already looking at creating Wx::SDLPanel, which will be the equivalent of
