Menu.delete returned "wrong # of argument" on Mac

Desktop wxRuby
1

Hi,

I was trying to delete menu items in a submenu, the code worked fine on
Windows, but failed on Mac.

I modified the sample bigdemo/wxMenu.rbw,

def menu_101(event)
@log.write_text(“Welcome to Mercury”)
# New here, change submenu to @submenu in initialize()
@submenu.get_menu_items.each do |menu_item|
@submenu.delete(menu_item)
end
end

Error:
wxMenu.rbw:140:in `delete’: Wrong arguments for overloaded method
‘wxMenu.Delete’. (ArgumentError)
Possible C/C++ prototypes are:
void wxMenu.Delete(int id)
void wxMenu.Delete(wxMenuItem *item)

wxRuby 1.9.9
Platform: Mac OS X

Thanks,
Zhimin

Thanks for the report and sample code. I tried this out with 1.9.9 and I
get an error (although a slightly different one).

I tried it with SVN HEAD (with ruby 1.8.6 and 1.9.1) and it works
correctly, no error is raised. I believe it may have been fixed by a
change I applied following this previous thread, so that MenuItems are
correctly preserved from GC:

http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/wxruby-users/2009-January/004400.html

So the problem should already be resolved by the next release.

thanks again
