Problem with FxRuby DnD demo

Rails
1

Hi All,

I’m following the excellent tutorial at http://www.fxruby.org/doc/:
– clipboardtut.html
– ch04s02.html
– ch04s03.html

In the latter page, the author adds the following to
ClipMainWindow#initialize:

Handle clipboard request

self.connect(SEL_CLIPBOARD_REQUEST) do
setDNDData(FROM_CLIPBOARD, FXWindow.stringType,
Fox.fxencodeStringData(@clippedCustomer.to_s))
end

The Ruby interpreter says:
undefined method `connect’ for ClipMainWindow:Class (NoMethodError)

The ClipMainWindow class has no such method. Neither does its super
class,
FXMainWindow, according to
http://fox-toolkit.org/ref/classFX_1_1FXMainWindow.html
(as I understand it.)

What am I missing?

Thanks in Advance,
Richard

I mis-spoke. It’s the clipboard example, not drag and drop. Sorry.

Hi All,

False alarm: I actually had a syntax error that was not yet noticed
by the interpreter. So I misinterpreted the symptom.

My apologies,
Richard
