Ok. I seem to be having some real problems today :) There is a link from the main page straight to the Wx::Frame tutorial, under the NEWS section. http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl Sorry for wasting everyone''s time :( Robert _________________________________________________________________ Getting married?

Any chance of incrementing the ol'' version number a bit more aggressively? Doing so could really help wxRuby adoption if done right: http://fishbowl.pastiche.org/2003/07/28/version_numbers_and_you -- Ryan "John" Platte Custom services, NIKA Consulting http://nikaconsulting.com/

0.0.5 sure gets the Mac build a lot further. There''s a bug in the wxMac-2.4.2 distribution that I''m running into: wx-config wants to invoke a program in the source directory at link time. That''s ugly in itself, but it tries to use a variable ${top_srcdir} to accomplish this, and it''s apparently empty. It tries to invoke

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

Grabbed 0.0.16 and tried a build for kicks. ...all good, except for a warning in MenuBar.cpp, then... g++ -c -I/usr/local/lib/wx/include/mac-2.4 -D__WXMAC__ -DWXMAKINGDLL -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGE_FILES -fno-common -fno-common -pipe -fno-common -x objective-c++ -I /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/rake-0.3.2/lib -I /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8 -I

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,

This fixes the wxRED Mac link error. Thanks to Nick for pointing out that I hadn''t removed some wxRED code related to an earlier experiment. Hopefully this one will build on Mac, end-to-end. I also found and fixed a problem that was causing the crash on exit: wxWindows automatically deletes the C++ app object as soon as the last frame is closed. Later, when ruby garbage collected the

Hey guys, It''s been awhile, but I''ve put up a new tutorial page on Wx::Frame. It''s the first half of the tutorial on Frame, the rest will come a little later. Let me know what you guys think. Any comments or criticisms are welcome. Let me know what was good and what could have been better, so that future tutorials will be able to incorporate those improvements.

wxRuby 0.6.0 has been released and is now available for download from RubyForge at http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/ This release includes binary builds for Max OS X and MS Windows. Changes in this release include: * Additional widget support in XRC (thanks to Marshall Elfstrand) * Addition of wxScrollbar (thanks to Hans Harmon of Pinnacle Technologies Inc) * Addition of wxGrid event handlers (thanks

I have a minimal working version of a SWIG-based wxRuby that can bring up an empty Frame with a title. On my system, it crashes on exit. I suspect this is the same problem that I mentioned months ago when I first upgraded to wxWindows 2.4.2. The problem mysteriously vanished at some point, but now it is back. I fiddled with this new code for several frustrating hours, and couldn''t

Hello My email has been broken for a week and some of it seems to have gone astray - so if there are other unanswered wxruby queries kicking about, please repost or forward me them. I have encountered this problem with a DOS box popping up under rubyw / rubyscript2exe; I don''t think it''s related to wxruby. I found them popping up when shelling out with backticks - I believe

So, having subscribed recently to the ruby-talk mailing list, I''ve noticed that wxruby doesn''t seem to have the "respect" of other GUI libraries. I know GUI-library preference is a holy war almost up there with vi versus emacs, but since I''m a wxruby developer, I''d like to know what people "don''t" like about wxruby. Otherwise,

The only changes are Nick''s Mac fixes to the rakefile and App.i. This might be "the one" for Macs. Kevin

It is by now clear that a handful of persistent spammers have started using semiautomated attacks targeted specifically at our wiki ... one careless spammer even uploaded some of his scripts! As a result, I have switched the wiki to a mode where editors need to be explicitly authorized, manually, before they can edit. As a result, people will need to first create an account, and then get a

It is becoming clear to me that the swig version of wxRuby will not be ready within the next several weeks[1]. Therefore, I think we should do a 0.4.0 release based on the existing source code. Hopefully this will be the final non-swig-based version. My goal is to have it ready within the next week or so. It will fix a few bugs discovered after the 0.3.0 release, and will include several

Hi folks, I''m new to wxRuby, but I''ve heard so many great things about wx that I wanted to try it for a program I''m trying to write. What I want is this: I have an application (server) that will accept connections from clients through TCP, which then play a game through it. As things change in the game (players coming and going, games being won and lost), I want

Hi everyone, As Kevin has just announced, wxruby-swig has been moved into CVS as a toplevel project. It still is not in a "releasable" form yet, but it now builds on more systems than it doesn''t, and is moving towards stability. Because of the complexity of the build environment, we''re using rake (http://rake.rubyforge.org) as a build system instead of the standard

It seems like unicode is poorly or improperly tested with wxWidgets. The documentation is wrong in several places and I have yet to get a build that works with unicode. The include file that is supposed to be included when you #define _UNICODE on windows does not even define wxUSE_UNICODE. I''ll try to tackle this more later but we''ll have to wait and see what happens.

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
