Congratulations, wxRuby2 0.0.40 but,where is 0.0.40 mswin32.gem? _______________________________________________ wxruby-users mailing list wxruby-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wxruby-users

I see that this problem was noted a while ago (http://rubyforge.org/ tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=251&group_id=35&atid=218) but it seems not to have received much attention. Any chance that it will be looked at anytime soon? So far, I prefer wxRuby to Ruby/Tk because of that closer coupling with the native window manager. However, the memory leak is just murdering me.

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

I''ve been using RSpec in anger for perhaps a total of a few days and just started playing with Story Runner. Love it. I also started working on a patch, which ought to be simple, to allow for Scenarios without supplied blocks to be treated as pending -- much like "it" in Spec::DSL::ExampleAPI. That said, I noticed something that seemed odd and chatted with Rein

Hi I''ve just started using wxruby2-preview-0.0.36-i386-mswin32 outsourcing layout part to the external XRC file. Almost everything seems to be fine. Only that I can never retrieve Gauge objects in the main script. What I''ve been trying is something like this: class MainFrame < Wx::Frame include Wx def initialize(parent) super(nil,-1, "")

Hello, wxruby-users. This is an addition which implement wrapper for overloading wxHtmlWindow::OnLinkClicked method. Unfortunately, it was impossible to make it correctly without ugly hack to wxpp.rb, but i`m hope it does not broke it. Please look at attachment for a patch for htmlwindow.t and wxpp.rb and additional file htmllinkinfo.t (need to be added to $objs array in extconf.rb). Sample

Team, I am trying to learn a GUI for Ruby and I picked wxRuby. The problem is that I am kind of slow learning this and I now feel frustrated after trying for about at least 7 hours. I am trying to design a simple Sudoku 9x9 grid to display numbers, 1 - 9, using buttons. I posted a question on Ruby forum ruby-talk and a gentleman, Alex Fenton, answered my questions. Alex gave me what appear to be

=begin I am trying to understand how FlexGridSizer works and I have written a small test application using the latest wxRuby 0.4.0 on Win XP (Home). I cannot get static text ''Week'', ''Day'' and ''Date'' line up above the OK button. I have tried all combinations of ALIGN flags, but I either got the text sticking far too close to the left edge of

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

I am attempting a text editor using wxRuby. I''m having character issues. Strings are not binary-safe. Some characters are not allowed. - newline / line feed (\n), tab (\t) are displayed - carraige return (\r) is stripped - Other control characters and high-ascii cause control values to become empty. Affected controls include: Wx::TextCtrl, Wx::StaticText, Wx::Clipboard, et al. Most

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

Hi folks A couple of questions: 1) I seem to get funny artifacts in the display of TreeCtrl, ComboBox and ListBox when the MDI child frame containing it is first painted (see attached - it should be two-root treeview, unopened). I''m not sure if it''s related to being in a MDI, but the controls sample looks OK. The artifacts are cleared up when it''s repainted or

Attached are patches to make the textctrl.rb sample work fully. Note the new %directorargout typemap I added to fix wxWindows calling into SWIG. I don''t know if this can fix all such problems or not. Let me know what you think. I also rubified the sample a little bit more. Also, note that I fix the << operator so the function can be called. I hope I did this right. Roy

Hi, I am using wxRuby 1.9.7 and Ruby 1.8.6. I have built an extension in C++ and used swig to load it into Ruby interpreter, which works great. The extension is an often long executing algorithm, and I''ve noticed that if I fork a new Ruby thread in button clicked event, and in this thread run the algorithm the application freezes for the time of execution. I have looked through the

I am trying to use a grid widget in my application, but run into a number of issues: -- Can they be placed in a panel? Or better yet, placed in sizer with other controls? I have only been able to place a grid inside a frame. -- Can you designate multiple rows (or columns) as being used for labels? -- Can you create cells that span cols (or rows)? -- What events are available to trigger on? How

Really stupid question, but have you wrapped this all in an App class? If you don''t have a wxApp subclass driving your applications then all sorts of badness would happen. > I''m writing a custom little application for my boss''s high school > football team to track there stats play by play. > > My problem is that when I start the application, it

Need some assistance with animation again... When I run the drawing code in a separate thread, it''s slow as heck. I think it may be because the drawing thread isn''t getting enough time from the thread scheduler. I was able to reproduce the problem in my little sample program simply by increasing the number of lines it draws per update. I''m lucky to get one frame

OK, back with another iteration of the same problem... I updated my game demo, but the Close button failed to respond when (and only when) there were too many objects onscreen. The drawing loop is probably lasting longer than my drawing timer interval. I was able to reproduce the problem in my (probably familiar by now) test script just by boosting the number of lines drawn per frame. After

These patches better implement ArtProvider and add the demo for it. I also expanded the bigdemo window a little bit. I really think we should go larger but I suppose there might be some people at 800x600 still. Note that creating your own art provider still doesn''t quite work correctly. I didn''t have time to get into that. The RubyConstants.i.patch file looks weird. Not

Hello all, Running this on an Intel Mac OSX 10.4.8 ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i686-darwin] wxruby2-preview (0.0.37) using zshell I''m having a heck of a time setting up a GUI with a differing number of widgets per row, resulting in a differing number or widgets per column. At first I tried to simply do something like the following: class CharacterInfoPanel < Wx::Panel def
