wxruby development - Oct 2007 - Comments on commit 1406 (rakefile changes)

Alex,

The changes to the rakefiles are causing me some problems building on
OS X. I am getting the following:

rake aborted!
undefined method `+'' for nil:NilClass
/Users/sean/Archive/Programming/wxRuby_Dev/wxruby2/rakefile:109

I will now go test on Windows

Sean

The rake file changes did not cause any problems on Windows but I did
run into a compile error due to a previous commit, error follows:

src\DropTarget.cpp(2296) : error C2259: ''wxDropTarget'' :
cannot
instantiate abstract class
due to following members:
''wxDragResult
wxDropTargetBase::OnData(wxCoord,wxCoord,wxDragResult)'' :
pure virtual function was not defined
C:\wxWidgets-2.8.6\include\wx\dnd.h(184) : see declaration of
''wxDropTargetBase::OnData''
rake aborted!
Command failed with status (2): [cl.exe -c  -IC:\wxWidgets-2.8.6/include -D...]

Before the rakefile changes I did not run into this problem on OS X, I
think it might be Windows specific.

Sorry about that. Can you try svn up and see if it works now please?

I''m looking at the MSW DropTarget issue now

alex

That was the problem, I actually found it a few minutes before you
posted this message but did not get a change to upload the fix.

thanks

I found another problem that is poping up on OS X and Linux. At the
linking stage I get the following message:

rake aborted!
can''t convert nil into String

What does rake --trace say?

DropTarget error on MSW should be fixed now.

This error happens when building a gem. I ran into it again when
testing out the fixes on Windows. So it is a cross platform problem.

Thanks, I hadn''t tried building a gem since these changes. Should be a 
fix checked-in now

alex

The fix works.
