Hi All! I am beginner to Ruby and much interested to learn wxRuby, but still not able to find some useful tutorial for this topic. I have installed wxRuby but not able to run its a single exmaple yet. I will be thankful, if some one guide me on Ruby Wx as I have to develop a final thesis in wxRuby.

A good one to look at is the "minimal" sample. If you are having problems running the samples, please post any error message you are getting, and tell us what platform you are running on (Windows, OS X, Linux). http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl?Getting_Started alex
Hi Alex! Many thanks for your reply. I am using Windows XP and I am getting "msvcp71.dll missing", although I have installed the wxRuby using gem command from command line. I will be thankful if you guide me step by step to run my first wxRuby example on my windows XP plateform. Thanks in Advance. Bye /Muzaffar -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I don''t think we''re permitted to redistribute it to users, but if you search on google you will find numerous free sites where you can download it. Once you have downloaded it you should put the .dll file in C:/Windows/system32/. If it requires any other .dll files (eg mscvr71.dll) you should be able to do the same. With that in place you should be all set to go. It''s unusual these days that XP doesn''t have this .dll available already. What "Service Pack" of XP do you have installed - do you have SP2 installed? hth alex
Hi Alex! Many thanks, using your advice, I download the file and put it in system32 directory and the problem is solved. Thanks again, its a nice support from this forum. Bye /Muzaffar -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
