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

[Кирилл Лиходедов]

Oops, sorry, that should be text.set_default_style(Wx::TextAttr.new(Wx::BLACK,
Wx::WHITE, font))

OK, I understand, it works now, thanks for the hint!

But the main problem still exists: it is very hard to determine when you use
wrong or incomplete method signature, when it just silently fails.Is it some
configuration problem of mine or it is WxRuby feature?
