Hi! I am trying to build wxruby with statically linked wxWindows library, but so far - no luck - bunch of unresolved references during the linking phase. I''ve seen on the list that Curt was being able to build it, so any hint would be helpful. gcc 3.2.3 (MinGW 3.1.0) & MSYS 1.0.10rc2. Sincerely, Gour -- Gour gour@mail.inet.hr Registered Linux User #278493

Hello to all! Since nobody replied and expressed desire to take over README.mingw32, I wrote short instructions how to build wxruby with MinGW compiler in MSYS environment. Considering that wxruby can be of interest to some Ruby users not so familiar with C++ and/or wxWindows (I''m one of them :-), I included some notes on installing MinGW & MSYS, building wxWindows library, Ruby ..

Many thanks to the 23 people who took the time to respond to the survey. It really will help me spend my time more effectively. As promised, here are the results. I have inserted some comments inside [brackets]. 1. Have you downloaded wxRuby? YES 19 NO 4 2. Have you successfully built wxRuby? YES 14 NO 8 [We really need binary downloads so people don''t have to build anything.

Wx::Font now supports almost all the methods of wxFont, which should be good news for anyone interested in rich text editing (FreeRIDE anyone?). These changes are checked in to CVS and my darcs repository. Thanks to Nobuaki Arima for submitting font support code. Although I didn''t actually use that font code, I did directly use the included sample file, and the changes to const.cpp.

I finally got a working native windows build of wxRuby (using a static build of wxWindows so everything is in a single dll -- wxruby.so)! Two things contributed to my success: 1) building wxWindows with the vc++ makefiles (instead of the vc++ projects), and 2) very careful attention to compiler/linker flags specified in extconf.rb. Kevin, I had to modify app.cpp, depend, extconf.rb, and wx.h. I

I believe I have followed Gour''s instructions to the letter for compiling wxwindows, ruby and wxruby. Indeed all of the compilation stages have worked flawlessly, however when I try to ruby any of the samples I get an error dialog "This application has failed to start because wxmsw241d.dll was not found ...."

Hi! Is drag''n''drop works currently under wxruby? I want an app, where you can drag files from a wxlistctrl to a wxtreectrl. Can anyone show a little example?

I sent a message to Julian (the primary author of wxWindows), and he immediately added wxRuby to the list of "Related Projects" on the "Community" page of the wxWindows site: http://wxwindows.org/ Thanks to Gour for suggesting this. We are also listed in the Ruby RAA, under Library, GUI. If anyone knows of other places we should be linked, let me know. Or better yet,

http://rubyforge.org/project/showfiles.php?group_id=35&release_id=46 The code itself has been quite stable for several weeks. This release includes Gour''s excellent MinGW README notes, along with various updates to the README, and clarification of the LICENSE. Thanks to everyone for your help in putting this together. It was definitely a team project. I look forward to getting lots

While trying to develop a little wxruby program, I have some difficulties, namely: 1. I want to read all kind of graphic files, (mainly jpg, png and tiff is enough...) But, the current implementation seems to deal only with bmps and currently there is no way to call ::wxInitAllImageHandlers. 2. I think DnD is required in my case: I want to drop filenames on a TreeCtrl. I will try to add

I have a first cut of a windows installer for wxRuby available for testing. It can be downloaded with this URL: http://curthibbs.us/wxruby-mswin-0.2_debug.zip This installer currently assumes that you have installed Ruby from Andy Hunt''s one-click Ruby Installer for Windows, *and* that you have installed it in the default directory (C:\ruby). I still need to figure out how to read

Hi! By visiting wxWindows site I''ve noticed that wxruby is not listed amongst other different bindings projects (Perl, Python, Lua, Java, Haskell ..) Is it possible to include it on the list? Sincerely, Gour -- Gour gour@mail.inet.hr Registered Linux User #278493

Ok, I now have both debug and release build installers for wxRuby 0.2 on windows. As I said in my earlier emails these are designed to install on top of Andy Hunt''s one-click Ruby Installer for Windows (version 1.8.0). In the start menu I create a wxRuby group with shortcuts to run the sample apps and to display "wxRuby Help" (which is just a freshly updated version of the

Hi I''m making an installer for my WxRuby app, using exerb. I''ve included wxruby.so in the package, and it seems to work fine on my computer, but are there any other dlls or whatever I''m likely to need, for example for WxWidgets itself? Cheers alex

Does anyone else here think that it might be a good idea to shift wxruby to use rake (http://rubyforge.org/projects/rake/) or perhaps one of the other "modern" build systems? One example of a task that would be trivial with rake, but seem to be really painful with make: Define a tclean target that deletes all the .h and .cpp files that are built from .t files. I''m not sure

I''ve gotten a lot farther building wxRuby than I did a few months ago. But its getting late here and I''m going to bed. In the meantime, does anyone know why I''m getting this compile error: Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 6.00.8168.0 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1988-1998.

Hi! Since I switched from SuSE to Gentoo (before Novell era :-) I wrote a simple ebuild script for building wxruby on Gentoo. Few notes: a) in order to work, wxruby-0.1.0.tgz should contain wxruby-0.1.0 folder since it is a Gentoo policy and I hope it''s not a problem to change that for 0.2.0 b) I assumed that one needs Ruby >= 1.8.0 and wx >= 2.4.1. Is it OK? Please inspect
