FXRuby 1.4.6 works fine except I call FXFileDialog.new.
My enviroment is :
windows 98
cygwin version 2.427
ruby 1.8.1 (2003-12-25)
Can’t reproduce it with fxruby-1.4.6 on ruby-1.8.4, linux.
Maybe upgrading your ruby will give some useful information?
Dear Uncutstone,
I have Ruby 1.8.4 and the latest (last-week’s) edition of Cygwin
installed,
also FXRuby and FOX, on a Windows XP machine.
I had trouble using Windows/Cygwin and Ruby bindings-software
(ruby-gsl)
myself,
just some time ago. None of these problems was Ruby’s fault or the
fault of those Ruby-bindings-for-software-xyz. If you can’t fix them
using
the
rebaseall for the Windows DLLs, I’d suggest you
-
either upgrade to Windows XP/Cygwin (which may still cause you
problems,
I get mad at cygwin once in 3 months), -
you install a dual-boot with Linux (may be troublesome with respect to
disk space), -
you drop Windows altogether (may cause problems if you want to scan
or do other multimedia things). -
you keep your Windows and try compiling with MINGW
www.mingw.org (http://www.mingw.org) . I have no experience with
this, but
people who know
it claim that it gives more usable output than Cygwin compilations.
I had used Windows 98 earlier (I didn’t know about Ruby then, so I
didn’t use
it, but I remember that I had 3-5 crashes a day for no obvious reason.
This has stopped in Windows XP.
Best regards,
Axel
