is there a way to have wxwidget-2.9 working with ruby ? seems that the latest wxwidget is better for use with mac osx... so, there is many widget who are not been implemented in the last version of wxruby... like wxFilePickerCtrl (and other). Also, it seems like the wxruby project is dead since 2009. Is it right ? So, do you know if someone seriously have intention to follow the project or is it more serious to forget wxrbuy and wxwidget with ruby ? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Have a look here: https://github.com/Hanmac/rwx This works with wxWidgets 2.9, but is incomplete and sadly not documented.

ok, thanks for this information Marvin. So... do you have experiment it yourself ? and if so, does it really works good ? (i don''t want now to loose time for nothing more) or is it preferable to consider that it''s probably a lot of lake of time to try to install and use it without any problem ? i add that with wxruby 2.0.1, who is the last wxruby versus (and use wxwidget 2.8), was considered as a "good" GUI and stable. Sure is not, because after many lines writing, i can see that (for exemple) a DatePickerCtrl.get_value doesn''t work as attempted (and definitively not works and return a error about a ''local'' variable who''s not exist... ). so, i try to find a GUI who just works with ruby and can be implemented on all OS (sure, not shoes who is really to much limited), but i''m not sure now that this really exist. if you know which can really seriously works... i would like to be in confidence about this kind of crucial information. thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

You''ve been pointed to an alternative version - worth looking at, although personally I think that an interface to a library as large as Wx needs to use some tool that automatically reads header files, like SWIG. alex
Ok Alex, thanks for this answer. So... could you tell me (if you remember) how works DatePicketCtrl. Not how to use it... this is ok (good and clear information on wxruby web site), but how it really works, because there is a bug i think. The call of "get_value" method return a "undefined ''local'' for Nil:nilClass (NoMethodError). So, the sample code in the wxruby rep has the same problem when try to get back the date value... and then, i have a look on the lib/wx rep and never see some datepickerctrl.rb file. So... i would like to debug it, but i not understand how it works (how i call the DatePickerCtrl Class and where/how is it defined. if you remember a little bit of this, i will be happy to have information about that. thanks again for your works. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
ok, i just arrived to change the error message and understand that there
is something not works good somewhere:
i create a new method "local" in class Nil:Class and saw that 6
arguments has to be caught...
they are year, month, day, etc...
when i try to return a DateTime.civil("all args") i have an other
unexpected error (LocalJumpError).
i search about this, but nothing.
I search also how to view where come from and hat to give back, but no
way for this.
I try also to look inside the code... and then, a wxruby2.bundle file
exist where i not arrived to unpack. After download the source code (so,
i see that the wxruby versus i have is 2.0.0 and not 2.0.1 because of
the obligation with gem and my osx-10.6.8 i386 arch and ruby-1.9.3... so
no correct gem with "last old versus")... i look into the source and
see
some swig C++ codes.
Inside one of them (named "datetime.i") i think that i find something
calling "local" method indirectly... on line 40. I not really
understand
what''s happen... i just see that in this file, it try to make a
convertion around DteTime from ruby and WxDateTime from WxWidget and
make a return.
also, when i run ruby -d mode (with all ruby codes... also just
"hello"
codes), i have some error calling about incapacity of defined local OS.
So.... maybe also there is a link between this warning error and the
call "local" who seems to return a empty things and after... an error
in
Nil:Class for "local" method (i think a method call for try to have
the
LOCAL time/date).
so... i search for resolve the problem with -debug mode of ruby. I find
lot of people have same problem, but no real answer can be used with my
gems (maybe some bad or missing dependencies).
2 ways:
1 turn over the problem with the other way to return something via a
invented "local" method on Nil:Class (what can i return and how to do
without localjumperror ?)
2 really find where the problem is coming from and resolve definitively
it.
is there someone who can help me ? My little competences are out of run
due to lot of lake of informations.

ok, i turn off the problem by insert in my code: class NilClass def local(*args) DateTime.civil(args[0], args[1], args[2], args[3], args[4], args[5],"+7") end end like that, this correct the wxruby2 bug without touch the wxruby2 code. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
