Can anyone give tips on how to get wxRuby working with Windows 7 (64-bit) and the Ruby 2.0 from RubyInstaller.org? I installed wxRuby with the following command: gem install wxruby-ruby19 No errors were reported during installation. Any sample program fails, however, on the following line: require ''wx'' I cannot figure out the cause of the load error, though think it may be when the require method is trying to load the DLL (if memory serves, that file name is wxruby2.so). Jamal
I have not tried installing wx myself but from the ruby installer documentation you will need to use the following line gem install wxruby-ruby19 --platform=ruby after installing the dev kit.

Thanks for the response.
Strangely, the gem command with the ruby platform parameter does not
work for me. I get the following error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)
malformed format string - %)
To ensure I had the latest gem manager, I did do the following command
first:
gem update --system
The wxRuby gem was the first gem I tried to install after a fresh
installation of 32-bit Ruby 2.0. I then tried again without the Ruby
platform parameter, and the gem seemed to install successfully.
However, when I try to run the dialogs.rb sample, I get the following error:

I verified that wxRuby does work with Ruby 1.93, so an incompatibility
seems to have been introduced with Ruby 2.0. It may be as simple as a
version number conflict or unexpected encoding, but I have not been able
to resolve this. Any help would be appreciated in getting Ruby 2.0,
wxRuby, and Windows 7 to work together.

After testing on Linux, I found an incompatability with wxRuby''s binary gem, and Ruby 1.9.3 p392. I will be looking into creating a 2.0 Compatible Gem for Windows, and Linux systems here shortly, and see about pushing the gem to RubyForge.
