[wxruby-users] Wx::Font.new fails in a Runtime Error

[Кирилл Лиходедов]

I can't construct a Wx::Font object, because it leads to a Runtime Error,
though it seems that I use it as per documentation of WxRuby.

Strangely, many mistakes lead to such an error instead of a verbose Ruby
exception :(

Could you please help me with this?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Please see the sample code below.

====================
require 'wx'

class TestFrame < Wx::Frame
  def initialize()
    super(nil, -1, "CMD")
    Wx::Font.new(12, Wx::Font::FONTFAMILY_DECORATIVE)
  end
end

class TestApp < Wx::App
  def on_init
    TestFrame.new().show()
  end
end

TestApp.new.main_loop
====================

Enviroment:
Windows XP SP-2
