Subject: [wxruby-users] Glitch with RubyScript2exe
In-Reply-To: <a0e8465d0807010459v26ab7808hc3a317491ba14ea3@mail.gmail.com>
Message-ID: <002c01c8dba3$2bc06380$a50ba8c0@valcom.com>

I used RubyScript2exe to build a Windows exe from my WxRuby app and it
worked great.  When I added --rubyscript2exe-rubyw to the command line, to
get rid of the DOS window, it still worked (once I redirected my stdin and
stderr to a log file), except that occasionally a DOS window appears and
disappears (very quickly).  This occurs predictably, when certain events
occur.  (It's not every time I write debug messages to the log file.)  The
occurrence is not related to any GUI activity.  It happens when my Ruby app
receives a certain message from another app.  It may not even be related to
WxRuby.

Any idea of what might be causing this?  (It's annoying and certainly not
acceptable for a release version.)

Thanks,

Eric Rubin

Subject: [wxruby-users] Treads slowing down the process
Message-ID: <787239e17e79e99cdd55824da10e4993@ruby-forum.com>

Hello,

I was having problems with my GUI freezing if you clicked off of it when
it was running or if it was processing a large file.  After researching
the forum, I found a thread that dealt with the problem by adding a
timer and Thread.pass to the App.  This solved the problem of the GUI
freezing or hanging.

However, it has caused the program to run very slowly.  What use to take
only a few seconds now takes a few minutes.  People will be processing
large text files with this program so speed is important.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Joe

Hello Joseph,

There is a certain problem with this.  Threads tend to make things a bit
slower with processing, due to the very nature of Threads.  There is
literally a pause current process, switch to next to give shared time,
before switching back.  So what may only take a few seconds, can increase
when you involve Threads.  The thing you have to remember, is that Threads
are green in Ruby.  Meaning they are software controlled, not Hardware
controlled.  As it is, what you are currently doing, to execute the Timer
every millisecond, is about the best you can do, to increase the speed.  So
unfortunately, there's not much else here that can be solved.  Unless you
wish to get into separating the code that processes the Text file, into a
separate file, and using something like Open3 to call the second bit of
code, and monitor the output from the sub-process.

That will be the only way you could truly get close-as-possible threading in
Ruby.

What has a GUI toolkit todo with storing data in an database??
This is a general ruby question I think but has nothing to do with 
wxwidgets.

Greetings,

Currenly i am trying to display a grid at the bottom of my GUI when a
button is clicked. However, the original frame size will not be auto
adjusted. it makes the GUI looks ugly and not user friendly as they need
to use cursor to resize it. May i know is there any command that i can
use to solve this problem? any method to adjust the frame after
evt_button generate a  grid at the bottom? thanks a lot.

Hi,
I'm playing around with wxRuby and XRC and I'm unable to create modal
WxDirDialog. After opening it I'm always able to get focus on parent
window.

class TestApp < Wx::App
    def on_init
     @test =  Main.new.show
    end
end

class Main < MainFrame
   def initialize
     super
     self.size = ([133,191])
     evt_button(basic_config) { | event | butt_event(event)     }
   end
 end

def butt_eventos(event)
    adr = Wx::DirDialog.new( @test, "Choose a folder")
    case adr.show_modal()
    when Wx::ID_OK
      puts "Directory: %s" %
        [ adr.get_path ]
    when Wx::ID_CANCEL
      puts "NOT OK"
    end
    adr.destroy()
end


After changing DirDialog to FileDialog or MessageDialog it works great,
and those dialogs are modal, so it looks that in Dirdialog is buggy, bt
maybe I'm doing something wrong. Any ideas? Thnx.
(I'm using latest wxRuby,wx_sugar, tested on winXP and Vista)

You are looking for the fit() method.

 From the docs:
window.Fit(): The Fit() method sets the size of a window to fit around 
its children. If it has no children then nothing is done, if it does 
have children then the size of the window is set to the window's best size.

http://docs.wxwidgets.org/stable/wx_windowsizingoverview.html#windowsizingoverview 

and
http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/doc/window.html#Window_fit

ps. frames that resize themselves aren't really considered user-friendly 
either.

Best of luck,
Jonathan

Sorry about that, Thunderbird wasn't cooperating causing me to

Subject: [wxruby-users] DOS box popping up under rubyscript2exe
Message-ID: <48748914.1030106@pressure.to>

Hello

My email has been broken for a week and some of it seems to have gone 
astray - so if there are other unanswered wxruby queries kicking about, 
please repost or forward me them.

I have encountered this problem with a DOS box popping up under rubyw / 
rubyscript2exe; I don't think it's related to wxruby. I found them 
popping up when shelling out with backticks - I believe the way that 
ruby executes external programs on Windows causes this if no command 
shell is already present. This may be what's happen with receiving a 
message from an external program in your case.

I got round it by calling the external program via Win32API on Windows, 
instead of ruby's own system/backticks. There's some code that 
encapsulates this here:

http://weft-qda.rubyforge.org/svn/branches/stable_1-0/weft-qda/lib/weft/filters/win32backtick.rb

Thanks, Alex.  I did find a place where I was doing `hostname` and getting
rid of this fixed the problem.

You actually should be able to get the hostname, via Wx::get_host_name()
which will return the hostname of the machine that the application runs on.

Subject: [wxruby-users] ListCtrl LC_REPORT undefined method
Message-ID: <5245a13643d2d57a4c08a6896d1cb803@ruby-forum.com>

Hi

Inserting an item with several columns into a ListCtrl:

def add_items(items)
  i = 0
  items.each do |data|
    self.insert_item(i, data[0])
    self.set_item(i,1,data[1])
    self.set_item(i,2,data[2])
    i += 1
    end
  end
end

works fine but I am unable to set the background colour of the item:

self.set_item_background_colour(i,RED)

gives: undefined method: set_item_background_colour

Version is 1.9.4-i386-mswin32

Ideas?

Refreshing that the Scottish heritage of wxWidgets influences spelling:
I am so used to color as opposed to colour.

	problem
Message-ID: <65829c2079f8c6154fc2129d3bcaebc6@ruby-forum.com>

Hi everyone - what is the proper way to display error messages when you
raise exceptions?

For example, the following code...

class MyWxRubyClass
  some code...
  evt_button(my_button) do
    begin
      some code...
      if wrong_condition
        raise "My Error Message"
      end
      some code...
    rescue Exception => msg
      puts msg
      Wx::MessageDialog.new(nil, msg, 'Error Popup',
Wx::OK|Wx::ICON_ERROR).show_modal
    end
  end
end

... produces "wrong # of arguments(1 for 0)" error message in both
console and message box.
How can I make it to display "My Error Message"?
"Wrong # of arguments(1 for 0)" happens only when I raise my own error
messages, ruby's native error messages are being displayd well.

Use Kernel.raise, eg
Kernel.raise "My Error Message"

The reason this is needed is because if you're inside a class that 
inherits from Wx::Window, a call to 'raise' unqualified is taken to mean 
the instance method Window#raise (which takes no arguments)

Message-ID: <487CB92E.9060807@aoeu.info>

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

I have a Nokia N810, running Linux, and wxruby works quite well on it,
except application startup which takes quite some time.

I have thought about preloading the wx libraries in some kind of
launcher, which then brings up the forms on some signal.

I tried calling MyApplication.new.main_loop multiple times (exited the
main loop in between), which complained about the constant THE_APP
already being defined. Undefining this and trying again gave me a
segfault. I also tried handling this in the on_init method, but it
didn't work so well when it wasn't allowed to return ;-)

Do someone have any suggestions about how to create this type of launcher?

Best regards,
Magnus

*mouth drops*  I never knew wxRuby was being used, or could even be used on
something like that little thing.  The problem with that, is you need to
initialize Wx::App only once.  Any attempt to use Wx::App more then once,
will cause the error your getting.  You could possibly setup a Client/Server
system, in which you create a dummy library, that replicates the
functionality of wxRuby, which actually communicates to the Server, to
create the windows, and such.  That would be the only way you would be able
to "Pre Load" the wxRuby library.

Sorry, that's about as much as I can help you with.

L8ers,

Generally, this is part of the design of the Wx library, not just wxRuby 
- it expects the main_loop to be entered only once, as part of the 
library is initialised at this point rather than at library load.

I looked into this approach a while back when I was trying to create an 
interactive wxRuby shell which could be used to test out ideas quickly. 
I never got it into a fully functional state, but here's the code in 
case it helps you. It creates a server app upon which a client can 
execute wx code.

##### CLIENT #####

require 'socket'
include Socket::Constants


while command = gets
  if command.chomp == "x"
    
    exit!
  end
  p 'command'
  socket = Socket.new( AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0 )
  sockaddr = Socket.pack_sockaddr_in( 5858, '127.0.0.1' )
  socket.connect( sockaddr )
  socket.write( command )
  result = socket.readline
  STDOUT.puts ">> #{result}"
  socket.close
end
# results = socket.read

##### SERVER #####

require 'wx'

require 'socket'

class IRBApp < Wx::App
  def on_init

    server = TCPServer.new('127.0.0.1', 5858)

    $f = Wx::Frame.new(nil, -1, 'empty')
    # $f.show
    Wx::Timer.every(100) { Thread.pass }

    listener = Thread.new do
      while session = server.accept

        session.close
      end
    end
    listener.abort_on_exception = true

I tried this approach, but I missed the Thread.pass bit, so my threads
wasn't very effective when I wasn't operating on the frames :)

I'll play around a bit and see what happens.
Thanks!

I can only assume that ListCtrl#set_item_background_colour is not 
supported by MSW so I have used ListItem#set_background_colour 
successfully instead.

Missed your earlier message. From the wxWidgets headers it looks like 
set_item_background_colour should be supported on MSW, Mac and generic, 
but it's missing currently from wxRuby. We can add it for the next release.

Thanks for the report.

It's not really clear what rgplot does from the home page, but I'm 
assuming that it writes a chart of some sort to an image file eg a PNG.

If that's right, the easiest way to combine it with wxRuby is to use 
GnuPlot to write an image file, then paint that image file on a 
Wx::Window using a DC (Device Context). The sample file 
drawing/images.rb is a perfect simple example of how to do this.

Assuming you installed via rubygems, somewhere inside your ruby/lib 
directory - something like

ruby/lib/VERSION/gems/wxruby-VERSION/samples/drawing

I'm afraid there's no method I know of that does this automatically 
across a whole application. Generally it is preferable that the font 
settings for MessageBox etc come from the user's own desktop settings, 
rather than being set by the application.

Hi all,

my wxruby application handles with data from a Oracle database. But i have problems with the german umlauts (?,?,?). 
I can write data to the database, but when i'm reading the data from the database, the application doesn't show the text.

The application is running on a windows pc.
Should i set some Locale .. ?

Thanks in advance,
Franz

I believe that Oracle needs an encoding for Text Data, just like MySQL
does.  You would need to reference the documentation for your database back
end, in order to correctly set the encoding options for your data.

Subject: [wxruby-users] Problems loading .xrc file
Message-ID: <9921570db54f295d020503e1df69a4ca@ruby-forum.com>

Hi,

I'm trying to load a gui with a xrcise/.xrc combo. I've tried both with
this trivial .xrc - which is just a frame with nothing in it - and a few
more advanced which worked great when compiled to c++.

I've tried both win xp sp2 and vista, ruby 1.8.6 from the one-click
installer and 1.8.7, wxRuby (1.9.7) and wx_sugar (0.1.20) installed with
gems.

C:\Users\magnuss\workspace\TestProject>ruby main.rb
10:55:50: Error: Cannot load resources from file
'file:/C%3A/Users/magnuss/workspace/TestProject/noname.xrc'.
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/wxruby-1.9.7-x86-mswin32/lib/wx/classes/xmlresource.rb:31:in

        from ./forms.rb:16:in `initialize'
        from main.rb:10:in `new'
        from main.rb:10

The .xrc file is in the same directory as my main.rb, and does indeed
exist :)

Any ideas or tips would be greatly appreciated :)

Magnus Sj?strand

Hi Magnus,

I'm using XRC on both Windows and Linux, and I'm usually building 
applications the same way, so I wrote a template to have a quick 
starting point. It should work fine on Windows too I think.
Make sure to start it from the right directory though (double-clicking 
on wxtemplate should work), currently it looks for ui/ui.xrc relative to 
starting directory.

Hi Alex,

my application is started from a dos-box. So, how can I change the
"deskop settings" in the dos-box?
(Changing the desktop settings for all applications is not possible!)

I'm afraid there's no method I know of that does this automatically
across a whole application. Generally it is preferable that the font
settings for MessageBox etc come from the user's own desktop settings,
rather than being set by the application.

[Hello everyone.
I saw earlier messages on "Rubyscript2exe."
Is there to other compilers that "Rubyscript2exe" to convert to create
applications with "wxruby" executable?
I'd like to be able to use other.]

Bonjour sebastien,

Il n'existe actuellement que deux compilateurs pour Ruby lui-m?me.
RubyScript2exe est une option, l'autre est Exerb. En g?n?ral, les gens ont
plus d'exp?rience avec une meilleure RubyScript2exe lors de la cr?ation
d'applications wxRuby.

[There is currently only two compilers for Ruby itself. RubyScript2exe is
one option, the other is Exerb. Generally, people have more better
experiences with RubyScript2exe when creating wxRuby applications.]

Je travaille actuellement sur un compilateur pour le syst?me appel? Ruby
Ruby environnement virtuel, ou RVE en abr?g?. Il fonctionne sur Windows,
Linux et Macintosh OS X.

[I am currently working on a compiler system for Ruby called Ruby Virtual
Environment, or RVE for short. It will work on Windows, Linux and Macintosh
OS X.]

Actuellement, cependant, cela est encore dans conceptuel, et phases de
conception, rien d'officiel encore. Il faut esp?rer que ce ne sera pas loin,
mais pas garuntee aussi de cette ?poque.

[Currently though, this is still in conceptual, and design stages, nothing
official yet. Hopefully this will not be that far away, but no garuntee's as
of this time.]

[Hello Mario,
I already try with "Exerb" but I did not understand.
Whenever I download the leaflet "Exerb" it was not in English or french
(perhaps a dialect).
If you can give me a link or download Exerb "and some advice so I understand
how it would be nice.
By cons, day or your compiler will be functional, post a message for which I
reported for download.]

Bonjour Sebastien,
Exerb est fait par un petit nombre de plus au Japon, si la page principale
de la langue se fait en japonais. Ils ont tr?s peu de documents en anglais,
et il est difficile de traquer les informations dont vous avez besoin de
cr?er un programme.

Les avantages et les inconv?nients de Exerb, est assez simple. Avantages:
Votre code ne doit pas extraites d'ex?cuter, ? l'instar de ce qui est fait
avec RubyScript2exe, les seules parties qui sont extraites, sont les
extensions compil?es, alors que d'autres, votre code reste dans
l'ex?cutable. Que, dans mon livre est un grand pro. Toutefois, les
inconv?nients sont que Exerb s'applique uniquement ? Windows, de sorte qu'il
ne fonctionne pas sous Linux ou Mac OS X.

En ce qui concerne mon compilateur, comme je l'ai dit avant, il est encore
au stade de la planification, le contr?le des id?es diff?rentes. Il ne sera
pas pr?t pour un certain temps. Pour t?l?charger Exerb, si vous ?tes
toujours int?ress?, vous pouvez l'obtenir ici:
http://downloads.sourceforge.jp/exerb/25874/exerb-4.2.0.zip Comme pour les
instructions, je ne peux pas vous donner beaucoup, il 'll ?tre ? peu pr?s
d'essai et erreur. Les bases, apr?s l'installation par exerb rubis setup.rb.

Vous pouvez utiliser la mkexy myapp.rb Cette recette cr?e un fichier, que
l'avenir nous le dira Exerb compilateur, de r?cup?rer tous les fichiers
associ?s ? votre projet, et quel type d'application de votre cr?ation, cui
pour la console, et interface graphique pour l'interface utilisateur
graphique . Apr?s cela, puis vous ex?cutez exerb myapp.exy, qui permettra de
cr?er l'application finale.

Au-del? de cela, il n'ya pas grand chose, je peux sugg?rer, comme il est ?
peu pr?s un succ?s manquez ou si cela fonctionnera ou non. J'ai assez bien
eu des r?sultats mitig?s avec elle, comme d'autres l'ont ici aussi. Je vous
souhaite bonne chance ? cet ?gard.

[Exerb is done by a few over in Japan, so the main page's language is done
in Japanese. They have very few docs in English, and it is hard to track
down information you need to create a program.

The Pros and Cons of Exerb, is pretty simple. Pros: Your code doesn't get
extracted to execute, like what is done with RubyScript2exe, the only parts
that get extracted, are the compiled extensions, other then that, your code
remains in the Executable. That in my book is a major Pro. However, the cons
are that Exerb is Windows only, so it doesn't work on Linux or Mac OS X.

As for my compiler, as I stated before, it's still in the planning stage,
testing various ideas. It won't be ready for a while. To download Exerb, if
you are still interested, you can get it here:
http://downloads.sourceforge.jp/exerb/25874/exerb-4.2.0.zip As for
instructions, I can't give you much, it'll be pretty much trial and error.
The basics, is after you install exerb through ruby setup.rb.

You would use the mkexy myapp.rb This creates a recipe file, that will tell
the Exerb compiler, to grab all of the files associated with your project,
and what kind of application your creating, cui for console, and gui for
Graphic User Interface. After that, then you would run exerb myapp.exy,
which will create the final application.

Beyond that, there's not much I can suggest, as it's pretty much a hit or
miss on if it will work or not. I've pretty much had mixed results with it,
as others have here as well. I wish you luck in this.

Subject: [wxruby-users] Filling clipboard doesn't work
Message-ID: <4a262246c56b9d257d2a0729a4b9eed8@ruby-forum.com>

Hello,

I ran into a bit of trouble with my first wxRuby application. I'm using
ruby 1.8.6 with wxRuby 1.9.7 on x86 Linux (Ubuntu). Didn't test any
other platform yet. In my application, I'm trying to access the
clipboard like this:

Wx::Clipboard.open do |clip|
   clip.set_data Wx::TextDataObject.new("TEST")
   clip.flush
end

This doesn't work. While running the app (after the execution of the
above code), the menu entry "Paste" is enabled in other applications,
but nothing is in the clipboard (at least nothing happens on pasting).
After quitting my application, the menu entry is disabled again and the
clipboard is empty.

How do I access the clip properly?

I still got another question: Is it possible to send key-messages to
other apps using wxWidgets?

Greeting,
Niklas Baumstark

works to the point where you try to edit the value for that cell.  The
choice box renders (i.e. the drop down arrow appears) then the application
segfaults.  Unfortunately I'm stuck developing this in a Windows (XP)
environment so I can't do much with the segfault.  Any help would be most
appreciated.

Thanks,

The problem here is the combination of GridTableBase and cell editors / 
renderers, which makes the memory management very tricky. It's noted as 
a bug here:
http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=19187&group_id=35&atid=218

I don't know how to fix it in the library, but you should be able to 
work around it by storing the cell editor in an instance variable 
somewhere. Then ruby will mark it and preserve it from GC. From the code 
you posted on c.l.r (please do post code on this mailing list as well)

def get_attr(row, col, attr_kind)
  attr = Wx::GridCellAttr.new

  if @db_table == "computers" and col == 4
    ## INSTEAD OF THIS
    # attr.set_editor(Wx::GridCellChoiceEditor.new(["CAD", "GIS", "CMT"]))
    ## TRY THIS
    @editors ||= []
    @editors << Wx::GridCellChoiceEditor.new(["CAD", "GIS", "CMT"])
    attr.set_editor(@editors.last)
  end

  attr
end

The background colour for a standard OS button will come from the user's 
desktop theme. Because these are native widgets, on most desktops this 
standard colour can't be changed - this is a feature not a bug ;) as it 
keeps applications consistent with respective GUI standards.

If you really must have multi-coloured buttons, use Wx::BitmapButton.

Okay back sooner than I thought, turns out I had the code here at home after
all.  Still no go.  I tried GC.disable at the top of the app too and I get
the same exact behavior.

The dropdown menu renders for a split second then it reverts to looking like
the default cell.  After that any attempt to interact with the app causes
the segfault.

Oddly it doesn't segfault immediately and will infact continue to run until
I click anywhere in the window.  Returning focus to the app doesn't kill it
either.

Okay check that, I really need to be more thorough in my testing.  I can
switch to other tabs in the notebook and edit cells in other Grids however
upon going back to the grid where I tried to edit the Choice Value
attempting to interact with any part of the grid causes death.

OK - sorry it didn't help - could you post a small but complete example 
that reproduces the issue so I can try it out and run it under a 
debugger please?

That's a good question :)  I'll see what I can come up with.  It might just
be easier to send you the whole thing though as I'm using a sqlite database
backend and Sequel, which could be contributing to or causing the problem.

I'll see if I can get something small that will re-create the problem
though.

Okay Alex,

I've got it down to 225 lines, not short but I think it's the shortest I can
do without possibly trivializing the issue.  I'm going to try attaching the
file as it is a bit long and since I've stripped the code for adding db
records (for brevity's sake) I will need to attach a db file as well.  I'm
not sure if the list will allow attachments though so if not let me know.

Bonjour Alex.
Peut tu m'expliquer plus en d?tail ce qu'il faut faire avec "rake_assemble.rb" et "NSIS"?
Pour le moment j'ai installer "NSIS".
Par contre je n'ai pas encore eu le temps de lire l'aide de "NSIS", ce que je vais faire d'ici peu.
merci

Thanks Glen - I ran your code with a debug build which turned up what 
looks to be the source of the error:

[Debug] 08:47:15: ../src/generic/grid.cpp(495): assert "m_control" 
failed in Show(): The wxGridCellEditor must be created first!

Further poking with the debugger suggests that what's happening is that 
somehow the editor is getting created but not correctly found when it 
comes to editing the cell. Unfortunately after an hour or two I couldn't 
get to the root of the problem.

My suggested workaround would be to dispense with GridTableBase and use 
Wx::Grid and Wx::Grid.set_editor directly to link your sequel model with 
the GUI. This may be slightly less elegant but shouldn't involve any 
more code. The samples/grid/grid.rb demonstrates this.

I've filed it as a bug on our tracker
http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=21389&group_id=35&atid=218

Thanks Alex,

I really appreciate all your effort on this.  I'll switch it to just
Wx::Grid for now, I don't think I'll have any huge db tables at least not at
first so it should work okay.

In-Reply-To: <48800a90807300619l258671bbpd1a7001d3e1a7bbf@mail.gmail.com>
Message-ID: <008901c8f250$eb2c65c0$a50ba8c0@valcom.com>

I'm trying to create a TaskBarIcon with a right-click menu but I get a crash
(in the evt_menu call) as soon as I right-click on the icon.

 

Here's the error message:

 

C:/Projects/SoftPhone1/lib/SoftPhone.rb:35:in `process_event': Swig director
type mismatch in output value of type 'wxMenu *' (TypeError)

(The rescue doesn't catch the error).

Here's the code (it doesn't matter which variant of the evt_menu call I
use):

 

class SysTrayIcon < TaskBarIcon

  def initialize(parent)

    super()

    @softPhone = parent  # soft_phone_frame

    icon = Icon.new("icons/phone.ico", BITMAP_TYPE_ICO)

    set_icon(icon, "Valcom VIP Page") 

  end

  

  def create_popup_menu

    menu = Menu.new

    close_item = menu.append(101, 'Close VIP-Page', 'Close VIP-Page')

    evt_menu(close_item, :on_close)

#    evt_menu(close_item) {|event| on_close(event)}

  rescue Exception => e

    puts "create_popup_menu #{e}"

  end

  

  def on_close(event)

    @softphone.exit

  end

end

 

Any suggestions?

I agree it's not the most clear error message. What's it telling you is 
that the method create_popup_menu is expected to return a value of type 
Wx::Menu, but you're not doing this.

In SWIG's terminology, "director" methods are those, like 
create_popup_menu, where a ruby method is called on a certain event 
happening (in this case, right-clicking the icon) and you need to return 
a particular type (in this case, a Wx::Menu to be shown.

Message-ID: <48800a90807301256p55fa39daw98b1eaaf617e6c03@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all,

I have another strange issue.

I want to decorate the main window (frame) of my application with an icon.
I have the icon in xpm format.  With the following code:

    # Icon stuff!!!
    icon_file = File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'circadian.xpm')
    icon = Wx::Icon.new(icon_file, Wx::BITMAP_TYPE_XPM)
    set_icon(icon)

Things seem to run okay but I don't get an icon.  If I use the same icon
file for a TaskBarIcon it works perfectly.

I don't get any errors but I don't get an icon either.  Any suggestions?
This appeared to be how it was being set in the big demo.

-Glen

Your code looks fine. I'd check whether the icon is the right size for 
the OS (you don't say which). Windows XP expects 16x16 for the task bar 
& title bar corner icon, and 32x32 for the ALT-TAB task-list pane. Use 
IconBundle to get both.

There are some sample icons in bigdemo.rb sample - do these icon files 
work? If so, it may be some other problem with your .xpm file; you could 
try using PNG as a cross-platform alternative.

[Could you explain in more detail what I should do with 
'rake_assemble.rb' and NSIS?]

rake_assemble.rb et assemble_libs.rb ramasser tout les fichiers dont on 
a besoin pour executer l'application - ruby, ses .dlls et les .rb - et 
les copier.

NSIS faire un seul fichier executable qui vais installer ces fichiers ? 
un autre PC (un "setup.exe"). NSIS se serve d'un '.nsi' fichier, qui 
d?crit ce que contient le setup.exe.Voyez, par exemple:
http://weft-qda.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/weft-qda/qda.nsi

[rake_assemble and assemble_libs.rb collect all the files which are 
needed to run the application - ruby, its dlls and the .rb files - and 
copies them.

NSIS makes a single executable which will install these files on another 
PC (a "setup.exe"). NSIS uses a ".nsi" file, which describes what the 
setup.exe contains. See, for an example
http://weft-qda.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/weft-qda/qda.nsi]

Tu pourrais tenter le r?sultat ici:
[you can try the result here:]

[I've installed NSIS, but I didn't have the time to read the "NSIS" help]

Je regrette que ceci n'est pas une r?solution <javascript: void 
CreateWindow('/freng.exe?p1=279296&p2=7&p3=201728&p4=47', 'engfrentry')> 
compl?te - tu devrais faire quelques t?ches pour l'adapter ? tes fins. 
Je n'ai pas de temps de t'aider en d?tail: si tu ?tais sur que 
rubyscript2exe ne te satisfait pas, tu devrais essayer l'adapter les 
exemples que je t'ai donn?s.

[I'm afraid this isn't a complete solution - you will have to do several 
tasks to adapt it to your purposes. I don't have the time to help you in 
detail - if you're sure that rubyscript2exe isn't satisfactory, you will 
have to adapt the examples that i've offered].

Thanks Alex,

I was on Windows and using PNGs fixed my problem.  I had assumed incorrectly
that since the xpm worked for the taskbar it would work with the rest of the
app.

  sqlite3-ruby (1.2.2)

The application stores the time spent working on tasks in SQLite when
the user starts and stops a task from the TaskBarIcon.

It uses the following Wx components: Frame, Button, BoxSizer, Grid,
GridTableBase, GridCellAttr, Panel, StaticText, TaskBarIcon, Image,
Bitmap, Menu, MiniFrame, SystemSettings, TextCtrl

The segfaults occur when I open and close the "Edit time entries" and
"Timesheet" frames.

I've attached a cut down version that doesn't interface to SQLite or
ActiveRecord that still exhibits the problem.

Please let me know what other information I can provide to help this
investigation.

Thanks in advance,
Bryan
