Does anyone have a dmg image or .bundle of wxRuby built against wxwindows
2.4/2.5/2.6 and Ruby 1.8?

I attempted to build all the parts with not much success.

I've built both wxruby and wxruby2 against 1.8, wx 2.6 on OS X 10.3. For 
OS X WxWidgets 2.6 is better than 2.4 - which means you are best using 
wxruby2, which supports this version.

I can happily send you a wxruby2.bundle, but it's a little dated 
(Sept/Oct CVS HEAD). It'd be better to build an up-to-date if poss, and 
also for 10.4

Perhaps you could post the problem you've run into - there are a few 
people using OS X so hope we can help you track down the problem,

I had slews of compiler errors, I search long and hard trying to find fixes,
but had little luck.

Buildign via darwinports fails badly.

Does wxruby2 support draop and drop yet ? Thats the biggest feature im using
(cross platform ruby app)
the bundle would be appreciated

Just compiled CVS HEAD on OS X 10.3 - I'll send you the bundle off-list. 
It'd still be useful if you could post the errors you got though, just 
in case there's a problem with Tiger.

> Buildign via darwinports fails badly.

Haven't tried it -- I have ruby 1.8.2, swig 1.3.25, wxwidgets 2.6.2 all 
built from source. Dunno if anyone has had success with this?

I might be wrong, but I don't think the relevant classes (DropSource, 
DropTarget, DataObject etc) are available yet.

Just for list reference - though the bundle seems to work OK, I got a 
lot of warnings of this type, which I haven't seen before on OS X / wxruby:

swig/classes/include/wxBitmapButton.h:9: Warning(471): Unable to use 
return type wxPoint in director method wxBitmapButton::ScreenToClient 
(skipping method).

(similarly for lots of methods, with return type wxPoint, wxSize, 
wxRect, wxRegion, wxString, wxColour)

Apparently App#create_log_target has become deprecated in wxwidgets, and 
apparently it was not compiled in to your wxwidgets build. This might be 
because your wxwidgets was compiled without 2.4 compatibility, or 
without logging support.

Regardless of the reason, the simple fix is to modify 
wxruby2/swig/classes/app.i and delete the line that says:

   virtual wxLog* CreateLogTarget() ;

(it's line 158 in the copy of app.i that I'm looking at right now).

I'll try to make this change myself in the official wxruby2 tree at some 
point. We don't need to support deprecated wx methods.

This is a known problem on all platforms. SWIG automatically handles 
returns of object pointers, but not returns of actual objects like 
these. We need to add typemaps for each returned class, to create a new 
ruby object of the appropriate type.

OK, after that I get another error:
src/BitmapButton.cpp: In member function 'virtual voidSwigDirector_wxBitmapButton::SetTitle(const wxString&)':src/BitmapButton.cpp:2078: error: 'SetTitle' is not a member of 'wxWindow'rake aborted!Command failed with status (1): [g++ -c -I/Users/arthur/wxWidgets/include -...]
So I guess the same thing can be done there. But actually it lookslike you're trying to use SetTitle on wxBitmapButton which is notallowed. This method is only applicable to frames and dialogsaccording to the wxWidgets docs for 2.6.2.You should be using SetLabel.

I just want to note that it does work fine using wxWidgets 2.6.2.Although there is a warning saying this method is deprecated.Also when using the CVS version of wxWidgets there are a lot of errorsabout SetTitle. But not when using wx2.6.2. So it might be a bug inwxwidgets.

Subject: [Wxruby-users] Wx::SystemSettings
Message-ID: <4384A4A9.9050709@pressure.to>

Hi all

Please find attached files to implement (much of) Wx::SystemSettings for 
wxruby2. I really just wanted to be able to get screen width and screen 
height, but there's lots of other stuff there too; the sample file 
provides a listing of what's avaiable, with descriptions. With this email

* patch to typemap.i
* patch to RubyConstants.i
* new SystemSettings.i file for swig/classes
* new sample file for samples/system_settings/

There's a few wrinkles that are beyond me:
1) The wx header file in wxruby2 CVS tree seems to be missing some 
methods listed elsewhere: SystemSettings::GetScreenType (listed in 2.6 
docs & my wx header file, settings.h), and SystemSettings::HasFeature 
(in header files, not in docs though)

2) Wx::SystemSettings.get_colour(xxx) segfaults for me (OS X 10.3) on a 
few of the constants listed in the docs. I have commented these out in 
the sample file for now, and the rest work as expected. For reference, 
running this in gdb I get the following error with the bad colours:

Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.
0x02da4c04 in wxColour::wxColour(wxColour const&) ()

3) Wx::SystemSettings.get_font(xxx) segfaults for me for any value, so I 
have %ignored it for now in the .i file. For reference, gdb reports:

Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.
0x02d83d68 in wxObject::Ref(wxObject const&) ()

all the best
alex

A post on the wxwidgets list pointed out that trying to use GetColour 
static function without an inited App is not recommended, and causes 
segfaults. Turns out this was the problem with GetFont, so this class 
can be ported completely.

Please don't commit for now, I'll resubmit shortly with a sample which 
works and the %ignore removed.

Would be nice if WxWidgets did something more informative than segfaulting.

Message-ID: <43879FC5.9010107@pressure.to>

hi

patches and files for Wx::SystemSettings, with get_font included in swig 
file and a sample that doesn't segfault wxruby.

CVS patches: RubyConstants.i, type_map.i
CVS new: system_settings.rb (sample) SystemSettings.i (SWIG file)

The sample should allow you to view the available information about 
system colours, fonts and metrics (eg cursor size, display size) in a Grid.

Incidentally, there seems to be a bug in Wx::Grid - when I double-click 
on a grid cell, I get

samples/system_settings/system_settings.rb:245:in `get_text_extent': No 
matching function for overloaded 'wxWindow_GetTextExtent' (ArgumentError)
    from samples/system_settings/system_settings.rb:245:in `main_loop'
    from samples/system_settings/system_settings.rb:245

There's no explicit call to get_text_extent, so maybe something getting 
called by Wx that isn't wrapped as expected?

Hi

An updated textctrl sample, with rich text and a bit more commenting and 
current ruby style. I haven't done as patch b/c it's from scratch.

I'm working on something similar to show off Wxruby's new unicode 
features. It all works pretty smoothly, with a few patches to typemap.i 
to make string return values work with multibyte characters (I'll send 
these over with the sample). Good support for UTF-8 is a big attraction 
(for me at least) for wxruby2.

This is a known bug and I suppose once we all get back to working on

Subject: [Wxruby-users] WxRuby2 Unicode
Message-ID: <438B650F.1070705@pressure.to>

Hi

Please find some bits n pieces for CVS for Wxruby2's unicode support

1) a patch for typemap.i (typemap_unicode.patch) - this makes methods 
that return strings (eg TextCtrl#get_value) return them as proper UTF8 
strings. Currently, if the strings contain non-latin characters, an 
empty string is returned. This should only affect unicode builds, 
according to the method docs.

2) a sample (unicode.rb) and accompanying sample text file (utf8.txt) 
that exercises some of the unicode features, such as displaying controls 
with non-latin characters, and input/output of UTF-8 strings.

If the iconv library is installed, it also has a set of menu options for 
importing and exporting text files in various encodings. It's intended 
to show how easy writing international apps can be using just ruby's 
stdlibs and wx.

Thanks to Kevin for kicking this off - hope this can be a real selling 
point for wx as a GUi for ruby.

cheers

As Roy mentioned, we need to handle GetTextExtent specially. Hopefully 
we can just add a method to the %extend area in the .i file which calls 
the wx method, then packages the results into a ruby array to return. 
That's how you can say x,y = some_function() right? We should probably 
match the Python approach and have two methods.

Hi guys,

I get this error when I try to edit an item in the grid:

dewd at marieta:/mnt/workspace/tpl_src/src/wxruby2/samples/etc$ ruby
system_settings.rb
Our Initialize was called
Their Initialize returned 1
system_settings.rb:245:in `get_text_extent': No matching function for
overloaded 'wxWindow_GetTextExtent' (ArgumentError)
        from system_settings.rb:245

I have been getting this consistently on Ubuntu Breezy, wxRuby2 from CVS and
Darcs (I tested both just in case :-).

wxWidgets is 2.6.2.
GTK+ 2.8.6.

Any idea?

Thanks.

Cheers,
Joao

Hi Joao

This is a known issue - there's currently a problem with the SWIG 
mapping of some Wx methods that should return multiple values to ruby 
(as Wx::Window#get_text_extent)

Unfortunately Wx::Grid calls this method by default when you start 
editing a grid cell item (all platforms). So Wx::Grid crashes for now in 
CVS HEAD - but it's something that should be fixed before too long.

cheers
