Hello,
when i run the bigdemo sample, the app crashes initially after opening the
"tip of the day" (it doesn''t when i don''t touch
mouse and keyboard). can''t even get to the main window. i ran it in
gdb, it gives me the following trace:

$ ruby -v
ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-02 revision 0) [i686-linux]
don''t know if this is a bug, maybe its my own fault. i don''t
really need the bigdemo so it''s no problem for me, but maybe the wxruby
devs are interested.
i remember that it was working when i compiled ruby (same version) without
pthread support, maybe this is the prob (ruby 1.8.6 worked even with pthread
support). if you need further info, please tell me.
Greetings,
Niklas

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to report this in detail with a backtrace. It''s much appreciated.> $ ruby -v > ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-02 revision 0) [i686-linux] > > don''t know if this is a bug, maybe its my own fault. i don''t really need the bigdemo so it''s no problem for me, but maybe the wxruby devs are interested.No, it''s not your fault, and it''s not our fault either. With 1.8.7, the ruby developers chose to change both the public APIs and aspects of the GC/memory management internals. This broke any SWIG-generated ruby libraries that use certain SWIG features (object tracking). IMO this was a sloppy decision on a stable branch that reflects badly on ruby''s development process, but - there we are. Anyway, I recently committed a set of patches that I think fixed this problem for Ruby 1.9, which has the same problem. If you''re willing to test this out from wxRuby''s SVN with ruby 1.8.7 that would be very kind. cheers alex

You should be able to work around this error by doing rake WXRUBY_EXCLUDED=MediaCtrl,MediaEvent Can I ask what wxWidgets you''re compiling against - eg a distro version, or a self-built one? thanks alex

I haven''t tried using the distro packages on Linux myself, but you might check that you also have libwxgtk-2.8 and libwxgtk2.8-dev libwxbase contains only the non GUI classes. Only libwxgtk has libgstreamer as a dependency, and that''s where the MediaCtrl code is found. Sorry for the inconvenience but wxwidgets has hundreds of compile-time options and different ways to organise the library files. It''s quite tricky to cope with all the variations. alex

Hello, finally solved the problem as described here: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/wxruby-development/2008-May/001322.html could have sworn that i didn''t get this result when i asked google about the problem yesterday, but today i do :) maybe this should be fixed... back to topic: it does now work, bug is gone.
