Hi all,

I wrote this some days ago to the fxruby maillist throug ruby-forum,  
but I didn’t get response yet.

IHi.

I’m learning Ruby, and I’m having a little problem.

Some days ago, I searched a GUI Builder to construct GUIs to my first  
scripts, and founded foxGUIb.

In my Office (on a Windows XP 64bits box), I installed libGUIb without  
troubles, and foxGUIb, was launched ok.

At home (Macbook), libGUIB, seems to be installed, but foxGUIb, gives me  
this output when try to launch.

galilea:foxGUIb glpunzi$ ruby foxGUIb.rb  
no such file to load – libGUIb16

Possible causes of this error are:

- libGUIb is not installed
- fxruby is not installed
- fxruby gem could not be loaded because you did not start ruby with -  
rubygems option
- other unexpected error. please check the following backtrace to find  
the cause of the error.

/Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb:27:in  
`gem_original_require' /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in`require’  
foxGUIb.rb:11

I tried to install again libGUIb, but all seems ok.

galilea:libGUIb glpunzi$ sudo ruby install.rb  
Password:  
parsearg\_config  
install.rb: entering config phase…  
—\> lib  
\<— lib  
install.rb: config done.

—\> lib  
mkdir -p /  
install libGUIb14.rb /  
install libGUIb16.rb /  
\<— lib  
install.rb: install done.

I tried to start fxri to see if was a problem with Fox, but started  
fine.

galilea:foxGUIb glpunzi$ gem list fxruby

\*\*\* LOCAL GEMS \*\*\*

fxruby (1.6.16)

A friend, told me he as the same problem, but he wrote  
require “rubygems”

at the first lines in the script and worked, but this don’t works for me

Some idea?

Thanks in advance.
