I tried vri. First of all, I think this is a BAD idea.
Anyway, it failed on ruby version. You should just use RUBY_VERSION,
and not regexping the command ‘ruby -v’. Same for rubygems, there is
Gem::VERSION.
After that, it listed the dependencies, however, although most were
installed, all showed as ‘needed’. That’s on Fedora 16.
I looked at vri, and saw a very debian/ubuntu centric script. I stopped
there as I think it’s a awful solution to a false problem.
You should just list the dependencies needed on the official site.
I then tried to install visualruby, it failed on one dependency that I
quicly installed, and all went ok.
On fisrt launch, it failed with :
/home/maz/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/gems/vrlib-0.0.16/lib/GladeGUI.rb:143:in
block in parse_signals': undefined method
split’
for :proj_path:Symbol (NoMethodError)
I edited GladeUI.rb to add :
next unless :meth.respond_to?(:split)
before line 143
On second launch, I get this warning :
/home/maz/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/gems/vrlib-0.0.16/lib/GladeGUI.rb:
line 132 Gtk-WARNING **:Unknown property: GtkMenu.ubuntu-local
It told me about installing samples, showed me the list of the samples
but selecting a project and clicking ‘Open’ does nothing. Selecting a
folder with a sample worked though.
I tried to run ‘calculator’, but I got :
/home/maz/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/gems/vrlib-0.0.16/lib/GladeGUI.rb:202:in
block in set_glade_variables': undefined method
gsub’
for :@builder:Symbol (NoMethodError)
I didn’t looked further for this error.
Clicking on ‘remote gems’ crash vr with :
/home/maz/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/gems/vrlib-0.0.16/lib/GladeGUI.rb:202:in
block in set_glade_variables': undefined method
gsub’
for :@builder:Symbol
That’s almost the same as above.
The listview sample worked, or at least, it didn’t crash right away.
The checkboxes to modify behaviour did nothing.
I also found out that double clicking the glade file launch it with
‘glade’, which is glade 3.10 on my system, and not 3.8.
and finally some minor bugs :
about does nothing
tutorials points to an invalid URL
So, right now, it is heavily bugged, but that is expected. It is still
a great project if you manage to polish it a little, and maintain it
for the years to come. It would be nice if you could clarify the
licence, and setup a repository which we could clone, dvcs prefered.
Congratulations on your first release.
