wxRuby 2.0.1

Hi

I’m pleased to let you know that wxRuby 2.0.1 is now on Rubyforge:

http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=35&release_id=38847

Binary gems for Ruby 1.8 and Ruby 1.9 on all the major platforms are
available; an update to the Ruby 1.9.1 all-in-one installer for Windows
will follow shortly.

This is a maintenance release which fixes some bugs and adds some
methods that were documented but missing, as well as various
improvements to the docs, samples and build process. There’s a summary
of the changes below, and a complete ChangeLog attached to the release
on Rubyforge.

Thanks to all who contributed. Chauk-Mean did most of the work pushing
this release forward, and it’s benefitted from numerous user-submitted
patches and bug reports from Pascal H. and others.

cheers

I’ve just uploaded the new installer for Windows.

From the release notes :

"A wxRuby distribution for Windows bundling :

  • ruby-1.9.1-p243 with its minimal dependency (zlib, iconv) built with
    MinGW

  • wxRuby-2.0.1

    • built with wxWidgets-2.8.10

    • associated documentation and samples

  • ruby-opengl-0.60.1

  • RMagick-2.11.0 built with ImageMagick-6.5.5-6 with PNG/JPEG/TIFF
    support

"

In addition to an updated version of Ruby and wxRuby, you can now
enjoy the OpenGL and RMagick samples provided with wxRuby.

Cheers.

It’s been a while since 2.0.0. and it’s great to see that things are
still very much alive and active on the wxRuby scene!
