Hi railers, I’m pleased to announce a new project: Reactive What is that? It’s a desktop application framework that is highly inspired by Rails. Thus it is MVC oriented and has built-in features like scaffolds. It currenty uses wx as it’s view system. The current release is pre-alpha, but you may already play with it. Refer to [http://www.ruby-reactive.org](http://www.ruby-reactive.org) for some help. Pascal ---

[removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid): Yes, some gems needs an update. You may update them all with: gem update But the problem should come from rubygems itself (I have version 1.0.1) Try : gem update --system Let me know. Regards, Pascal ---

[removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid): This first release is a proof-of-concept. I’ll add some more features, especially in the view\_wx scaffold views. I may create a screen-cast at this stage. After that, tests have to be written for the core and the view\_wx. The core will need some review also. Then, a first beta will be released. I don’t plan to head the whole development, so contributors are welcome! Cheers, Pascal ---

This is an error > msg: Hello, Your problem comes from the dependencies of reactive\_view\_wx, it depends on the wxruby gem. You better first install the wxruby gem (because there are platform specific packages). type this: gem install wxruby You may then install reactive\_view\_wx with gem install reactive\_view\_wx Note that reactive\_view\_wx 0.1.0 will only work with actionpack 2.0.x and not the lateset 2.1.x Regards, Pascal
