Hey Alex and Sean,
After much review, and testing, of creating a Sockets library that would
reliably work with Ruby Threads, and recent posts about trouble with Ruby
Threads and wxRuby, I''ve come to the conclusion that it would not be a
reliable method in which to create this library through pure Ruby code.
Either we will need to check out 1.9.0 (Since it''s been officially
released), to see if the "Thread" problems can be solved, or we will
need to
wrap the internal Sockets library, to provide reliable interaction between
wxRuby and Sockets I/O API. I would be more then happy to write these
wrappers, but will need to review how to create the Wrappers, and may be in
need of some assistance, in which to get started. I do belive I need to
start by re-writting the "SWIG"ified version of the Headers in the
swig/classes/include folder.
I''m against doing this with 1.9.0, since a lot of people are pretty
much
still adjusted to 1.8 series, and we are going to need to provide a package
proabbly for both 1.8 and 1.9, since there are some very fundimental changes
between both versions of the Interpreter.
Email me, or catch me on IRC (Which will more then likely be about 3:30,
4:00 in the morning on Monday), so I can start working on this for the
1.9.4release of wxRuby.
Thanks and L8ers,
