After seeing contributions from Dmitry and Alex, I''m wondering how we can better organize and encourage user contributions. ORGANIZING Maybe identifying what is still missing in wxRuby-SWIG and publishing a prioritized todo list could useful to contributors. GETTING NOTICED It might be useful to post a link to the unassigned todo list each month to comp.lang.ruby and ask for

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

The CVS module has been renamed from wxruby-swig to wxruby2, and I have checked in the related changes to reflect the name change. Anyone with a CVS tree will need to re-checkout from CVS because of the module name change. There is now a wx.rb in the lib/ directory, which loads the wxruby2 shared library that gets built. I have tagged this as 0.0.22. Next steps: - Apply Choice.i patch from

Has anybody tried the new wxruby-swig from the msvc++ command line compiler using ''rake''? The rakefile seems to depend on the wx_config method, which doesn''t exist for msw because it doesn''t have BASH to execute the shell script. Has anyone hacked the rakefile to fix this? Nick

A little patch to add Wx::GenericDirCtrl. A non-native control (on OS X at least) but maybe useful to someone. I have tested it but think it should just be added to controls.rb sample - will do later when i have fixed some other probs with that. Also, I''ve started putting class-specifc style constants in the relevant .i file, as discussed previosuly - will submit a patch doing this

I have recently started to use wxRuby, because I have used the wxWidgets library from C++ for a few years and found it an excellent toolkit. I am using Ubuntu 8.04 and version 1.9.6 of wxRuby. A problem though is a number of instabilities. This may be due to my own ignorance, but I have usually found C++/wxWidgets, once the program compiles it will at least stay working, if at times

Hi wxRuby Gurus, I''m trying to write a sample program which allows me to drag an image (by left_mouse_button down) across the canvas. I got it to work ... well, sort of. The problem is I can drag it only by clicking on the left top corner of the image and nowhere else. Besides, the dragging is not very smooth. How can I make it better? I am using wxRuby 0.6.0 on Win XP (Home) and

What do I need to do to be able to contribute patches? Thanks, Joe _______________________________________________ wxruby-users mailing list wxruby-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wxruby-users

This one includes the latest App.cpp which includes the Mac fix from Nick. I thought it was in 0.0.11, but it wasn''t. It also adds support for "stock objects", like colours, pens, and fonts. This turned out to be quite challenging, but I''m happy with the solution. It only took a few days :-/ Kevin

I just pushed a new wxruby-swig, which includes the known MSWin rakefile changes. It also has some significant internal improvements that will make it easier to add classes, and it includes support for one new class (wxEvent). wxruby-swig is now licensed under the "MIT license". wxRuby will remain under the wxWindows license as long as we are releasing the old code base. When we

Hi All, I am trying to compile WxRuby on Ubuntu 6.06. I checked out the latest source code from CVS and ran ''rake'' under the wxruby2 directory. I am getting the following error. root@imayam:/work/wxruby/wxruby2# rake (in /work/wxruby/wxruby2) rake aborted! Don''t know how to build task ''src/App.cpp'' (See full trace by running task with --trace) I am

Hello, is it possible to code a wxWidgets GUI in C++ and pass the whole wxApp or just single windows to embedded Ruby code? This would be very nice to provide a scriptable plugin system.

Here''s a patch to fix Wx::Window#get_text_extent - it requires that the patches from teh last message are applied, to enable *INPUT etc typemaps. Roy - though the function works correctly when called from Ruby, it still causes a crash when called internally when clicking on a Wx::Grid cell. Saw your message on SWIG mailing list, hopefully someone there can help out. alex

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 couldn''t find the original tex document that the author of the xml file converted from. Anyone knows where it is? I am toying with the idea of _not using_ the xml file. Either getting the wx header files thru SWIG (I assume you guys have thought about this before already, any specific problems?), or continue with the template generator in the current wxruby-4.0. The RUBY port of

As a member (and former leader) of the wxruby team, I thought I would share the state of the wxruby world. The current release is 0.6, and it has

Hi Please find attached a set of patches and swig files to implement Wizards for wxruby. Also a brief sample. Quick q - the C declarations of evt_xxx_xxx methods and their attaching to Ruby classes seems to be duplicated across Events.i and EvtHandler.i - is one of these the right place to be adding them? or both? Thanks alex _______________________________________________

Hi Attached, patches to implement ListItem. This class, in wxruby 0.6.0, allows styling of individual items in a ListCtrl, via a particularly clunky API. In disambiguating the overloaded ListCtrl#set_item method it introduces one non backwards-compatible change. I''ve followed the WxPython convention as described in the Wx class ref, renaming set_item(index, col, string, imageid) to

I was investigating why the find dialog causes an error when you close it. It seems that wxRuby2 is returning a new ruby object when you call Event.get_dialog. This causes some big problems when you''re expecting you''re going to get back the same ruby pointer that you put in. In a brief check over the source I don''t see anything that preserves the original ruby
