wxruby2.so: [BUG] Segmentation fault on require ''wx''

Hi --

I am trying to get ruby 1.9 to run on my Windows Vista Ultimate computer
with and Intel 32 bit processor and all OS updates applied.
I installed ruby 1.9 on October 23, 2009 using the zip file
(ruby-1.9.1-p129-i386-mswin32.zip) and the instructions located at:
 http://blog.orangecabin.com/2009/05/install-ruby-1-9-on-windows-using-zip-binary/.
I was able to run several simple scripts. So far so good.
 I then went after wxruby and got it installed following the
instructions at
 http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/wxruby/INSTALL

 I tried to execute minimal.rb.
 Running it in any fashion from the command line e.g.
 ruby  minimal.rb
 ruby -rubygems minimal.rb
 generated the error output you see below.
 I eliminated all the code and can produce the crash and the same output
just by requiring ''rubygems'' and ''wx''. I
called that file mini.rb and it
is below. It will fail if the only two lines are:

require ''rubygems''
require ''wx''

 I searched around on the forums for a solution and have found none so I
am posting and asking for help. In searching I''ve seen requests for the
output of
 gem env and ruby -v so they are below too.

gem update system returns Nothing to update.

Thanks to anyone who can help and everyone who tries.

Doug

it looks like you may  be using the wxruby gem built for Ruby version 
1.8 - these are not compatible with Ruby 1.9. We don''t currently have a
wxruby gem for Ruby 1.9 built with the microsoft compiler, but you can 
use wxRuby and ruby 1.9 built with the mingw compiler. If you got to the 
download page:

http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=35

you''ll see a mingw-...-setup.exe package. This is an all-in-one 
development environment for Windows and Ruby 1.9, with wxruby already 
installed. This should have you up and running quickly for GUI dev on MS 
windows.

The one-click installer for ruby has moved to using MingW, so it''s our 
best guess as wxRuby developers that this is future platform for ruby on 
windows.

Hello Alex --
Worked like a charm. I feel kind of foolish for not having found the 
information suggesting I to do this is on my own given how much 
searching I did.  Nevertheless, I didn''t, you helped, and I''m
up and
running.
Thank you very much.
Doug
