similar to: FXRuby 1.6.15 Now Available

Hello, I have started learning FXRuby about 2 weeks ago. Now I''m trying to launch the scintilla_test.rb from the fxruby-1.6 installation directory (/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.6.16/examples) and get this error: /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.6.16/lib/fox16/kwargs.rb:2007:in `old_initialize'': wrong number of arguments (8 for 0) (ArgumentError) from

All, As some of you may have heard, the default gem hosting repository will soon transition away from RubyForge.org to a new site, RubyGems.org (aka Gemcutter.org). Coincident with this transition will be a gradual (?) phasing out of other RubyForge services, which I''ve written about here: http://lylejohnson.name/blog/2009/10/26/wait-what-was-that-last-bit/ As I write near the

InfoQ has just published Werner Schuster''s interview with me, in which we discuss the FOX toolkit and FXRuby''s implementation: http://www.infoq.com/articles/johnson-fxruby-book-excerpt The article also includes an exclusive sample chapter from the new book, "FXRuby: Create Lean and Mean GUIs with Ruby". To read more about the book, please see its web page at the

All, Due to a number of recent bug reports regarding FXRuby''s compatibility with JRuby, I feel like I need to clear something up, and that''s that FXRuby will never (well, "almost certainly never") work with JRuby. This problem isn''t unique to FXRuby; it''s true for any C/C++-based Ruby extension. See this page:

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

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.

We have been using Ruby 1.8.6 and FXRuby 1.6.16 under Windows, from the old one step installer. The following code takes less than a second to load and execute on my five-year old Windows XP PC. puts ''Starting'' require ''fox16'' puts ''Done'' With Ruby 1.9.3 and FXRuby 1.6.23, it takes 12 or more seconds. Both tests are with all files on

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

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. (see foxGUIb/test/unicode_test_japanese.rbin) thanks for all the feedback and the bug reports. enjoy ;) -- henon

I am using ruby *1.8.4* (2005-12-24). I added this code: #define RARRAY_LEN(a) \ ((RBASIC(a)->flags & RARRAY_EMBED_FLAG) ? \ (long)((RBASIC(a)->flags >> RARRAY_EMBED_LEN_SHIFT) & \ (RARRAY_EMBED_LEN_MASK >> RARRAY_EMBED_LEN_SHIFT)) : \ RARRAY(a)->as.heap.len) #define RARRAY_PTR(a) \ ((RBASIC(a)->flags & RARRAY_EMBED_FLAG) ? \

I have created a mirror of the fxruby-users mailing list in Google Groups (http://groups.google.com/group/fxruby-google). I will remove it if anyone has a strong objection to its existence. Otherwise, I hope that it proves to be useful. Regards, Chris

Hi Lars, people. I''ve realized that currently the gem(version 1.6.26) doesn''t work with Ruby 2.0.0 in Windows 32 bits, neither the 64 bits version, I''m talking about the versions listed here: http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads/ . There you can see both versions of Ruby and also the both versions of the DevKit: mingw64-32 and mingw64-64. I''ve tested with both
