I prepared everything and started a test but it didn''t work. I created a xrc file and no used xrcise -o test.rm nonam.xrc and get the following error message: Cannot create wrapper for class without ''subclass'' attribute Here the xrc xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> <resource xmlns="http://www.wxwindows.org/wxxrc" version="2.3.0.1"> <object class="wxFrame" name="MyFrame1"> <style>wxDEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE|wxTAB_TRAVERSAL</style> <size>554,553</size> <title></title> <object class="wxGridSizer"> <rows>500</rows> <cols>3</cols> <vgap>0</vgap> <hgap>0</hgap> </object> <object class="wxStatusBar" name="m_statusBar1"> <style>wxST_SIZEGRIP</style> <fields>1</fields> </object> <object class="wxToolBar" name="m_toolBar1"> <style>wxTB_HORIZONTAL</style> <bitmapsize></bitmapsize> <margins></margins> <packing>1</packing> <separation>5</separation> <object class="wxTextCtrl" name="m_textCtrl1"> <value>enter ticker</value> <maxlength>0</maxlength> </object> <object class="wxButton" name="m_button2"> <pos>-1,-1</pos> <label>Start</label> <default>0</default> </object> <object class="wxButton" name="m_button3"> <label>Stop</label> <default>0</default> </object> </object> </object> </resource> -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Hello Heinrich, What you will need to do, is goto your main Window form, and scroll down on the properties page, you will see a field that says Subclass, and have a semi-colon in it, with a + next to the field name. You need to click that plus, and put what name you want your ruby class to be named as. EG: MyFrame This will tell XRCise when it generates the wrapper, that the class to use, will be MyFrame. hth, Mario On Fri, Nov 14, 2008 at 12:39 PM, Heinrich Piard <lists at ruby-forum.com>wrote:> Alex Fenton wrote: > > Heinrich Piard wrote: > >> where can I find a tutorial like "How to use wxFormbuilder with ruby"? > >> > >> I want to transform xrcise code into ruby code and don''t know how to do > >> this. > > > > http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl?UsingXRCise > > > > Note that XRCise doesn''t generate ruby code for the layout - but it > > writes all the boring code that loads your layout from XML.

I would expect it to be a valid path rather than a mangled-looking URL. Hard to know where this came from without knowing more about your project layout. I would check that you call xrcise with a relative path, in a typical project structure. Eg I have app.rb lib/*.*/rb share/xrc.xrc I call "xrcise share/xrc.xrc" from the base directory and that means that the paths resolve fine. a

Try changing the line for the loading of the XML resource file from:
xml.load("wxFormBuilder\noname.xrc")
To:
xml.load("wxFormBuilder/noname.xrc")
Thankfully, to Ruby and wxWidgets, it doesn''t really need you to use
the \
slash to access a file path.
Often times, it''s better to run xrcise as such:
xrcise -o noname.rb wxFormBuilder/noname.xrc
This way, doesn''t matter if it''s on Windows, or Linux, it will
be able to
find the resources just fine.
