Hi, there seems to be a bug when using type\_register with ruby 1.9 :

sarnaud@NNAN0022:~/src/ruby-gnome2-all-0.19.3/gtk/sample/misc$ ruby -v  
ruby 1.9.1p243 (2009-07-16 revision 24175) [x86\_64-linux]  
sarnaud@NNAN0022:~/src/ruby-gnome2-all-0.19.3/gtk/sample/misc$ ruby  
properties.rb  
properties.rb:22:in `each': can't convert String into Integer (TypeError) from properties.rb:22:in`each\_with\_index’  
from properties.rb:22:in `initialize' from properties.rb:22:in`initialize’  
from properties.rb:69:in `new' from properties.rb:69:in`’

while it works ok with 1.8 :

sarnaud@NNAN0022:~/src/ruby-gnome2-all-0.19.3/gtk/sample/misc$ ruby -v  
ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [x86\_64-linux]  
sarnaud@NNAN0022:~/src/ruby-gnome2-all-0.19.3/gtk/sample/misc$ ruby  
properties.rb  
#\<MyButton:0x7f44d8c32660 ptr=0x1b72820\>  
“Hello”  
GLib::Type[“MyButton”]  
…  
…  
[MyButton, MyButton::RubyGtkContainerHook\_\_, Gtk::Button,  
#Module:0x7f44dbb9f358, Gtk::Bin, Gtk::Container, Gtk::Widget,  
Gtk::Buildable, Atk::Implementor, GLib::Interface, Gtk::Object,  
GLib::InitiallyUnowned, GLib::Object, GLib::Instantiatable, Object,  
Kernel]

Moreover, the error message does not really points at the right place.  
It always report the line which is calling ‘super’.

regards

Simon

Thanks for reporting.  
I’ve fixed it in trunk.
