Dan/Park, What are your thoughts about implemented portion of the win32utils family that are written in ruby utilizing WIN32OLE. I have found myself writing decent amount of ruby code accessing the Windows Scripting Host (WSH) object models. I have a few scripts which could be added. I do not believe the functionality is currently available with win32utils: - map network drives -

Hi everyone, So, who wants to rewrite the WIN32OLE library? I think I''ve got most everything you''ll need in the windows-pr library, such as Windows::COM::Automation, Windows::Error, etc. I can add anything that''s missing. Advantages include: * No compiler required * Easier to debug * A potentially better and more flexible interface * The current WIN32OLE library is

Greetings all. I have some controller code that uses win32ole (only available on windows). This code is now solid, and I''d now like to resume development on (any) other OS(grin). But alas, the controller bails because the OS specific library can''t be found. Can I conditionally specify action code compilation (and a require ''win32ole'') based on OS or

Hello, I have started learning FXRuby about 2 weeks ago.

Hi -- I just got your book FXRuby and am trying to get it working on Leopard -- I had no problems getting it to work on Vista or Ubuntu but when I tried to follow the post on your blog for Leopard I got the following error -- I don''t know enough about Leopard or Ruby for that matter to troubleshoot this myself so I was hoping someone may have run into this before and can offer a solution.

Cross-posted to the blog (at http://lylejohnson.name/blog/2010/08/04/moving-on/): When Jamis Buck wrote last year about ceasing development on Capistrano, his post really struck a chord with me. If this post reminds you of that one, it''s because I re-read it before sitting down to compose this one. It was the next best thing to having Jamis on hand to give me a pep talk before I had to

Hi Don, Thanks for the tips. But it works on an old XP computer but NOT on the new Vista. I also notice that I can browse the classes from Fxruby when I use fxri or ri on the old computer. I see nothing about FxRuby''s stuff when I use fxri or ri on the new Vista. But I can use gem server to see the Rdoc about FxRuby''s classes on both computers. It looks Ruby doesn''t

dear (FX)Ruby hackers, lyle has released FXRuby 1.6.0 some days ago. so it was a good opportunity for me to fix some more bugs and release annother version of foxGUIb which is tested against FXRuby 1.6.0. the most interesting feature Fox1.6 brings to you is unicode support.

I find that when a running fxruby program looses focus or another window is placed in front of it, when the fxruby window regains focus, many times the gui is now frozen or blank. This seems to happen especially frequently when the window covering it is a java or fox based application. Usually it comes back but sometimes it takes several minutes to do so. I would really like to find someway

All, A couple of new build platforms have come into the picture since the last FXRuby release and I''m trying to make sure they''re supported. That is to say, I want to be able to provide precompiled binary gems so that users on those platforms don''t have to build everything from source. I think I''m there, but I could use your help testing if you have

I built fxruby-1.6.19 in win32 using msys + mingw tools. The process of doing it is ok and generate a file fox16.so in the directory ext\fox16. But when i require ''fox16'', it fails to work. it reports that "LoadError: 127.

Hi fxruby hackers, new version 1.6.23 is out with the following changes. Unfortunately the fxruby.org homepage is down and I don''t have access to it.

Have fun! === 1.6.23 / 2012-03-08 * Add YARD documentation support * Use generated Manifest.txt * Support
