Visual Ruby Installation on windows 10

Ruby

I got this error when trying to start visualruby after installing on
Windows 10:

C:/Ruby23/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/gems/gobject-introspection-3.0.9-x86-mingw32/lib/gobject-introspection/loader.rb:
line 302
GLib-GObject-WARNING **:attempt to override closure->va_marshal

#<GdkPixbuf::Pixbuf:03A47648 ptr=00000000> (NoMethodError)
Did you mean? initialize_new_from_inline
initialize_new_from_file_utf8
initialize_new_from_bytes
initialize_new_from_stream
initialize_new_from_data

Any suggestions on what has gone wrong with install. Glade works by
itself as does Ruby

I also got this error in the same environment.

I uninstalled ruby, then grabbed 2.3.0 x64 version, and now I only get
this much of the error.

I opened loader and started using some puts to try and trace down the
error. Here is where it errors out in def load_constructor_infos

infos: [#<GObjectIntrospection::ConstructorInfo:00000000030DAE50
ptr=0000000008F8C7A0 own=true>], klass: Gtk::WindowGroup

I tracked it down to an invoke statement in loader.rb in the directory
referenced by the error. I am still troubleshooting it down…I’m
totally new to Ruby–I just completed the Codeacademy course this
weekend! lol, so I’ll post in a couple of days unless I can solve it
sooner.
In the meantime, I started using the Tk windows code to write simple
windows code, Tk looks simple to use and has good documentation. It
comes with ruby; you just have to select to install it during the ruby
install.

I have reinstalled with Ruby23-x64 and am getting exactly the same
error. But VisualRuby does not run afterwards even though this is just a
warning. Not sure how to get it to run so I can use it.
