Hello,

I am running wxruby on snow leopard (OSX 10.6.4). I searched for the appropriate gem, but could not find one. So, I built it from scratch. It is not perfect, because it is not universal (only x86) and based on ruby-1.8.7 (not 1.9). There are other things missing in the gem as well. Support for:
GCDC
GraphicsBrush GraphicsContext GraphicsFont GraphicsMatrix GraphicsObject GraphicsPath GraphicsPen MediaCtrl MediaEvent

controls, because I don't need them and so my wxwidgets library is not compiled with these. But, I still think the gem might be useful for someone. I do not wanna go through the complete procedure of setting up the gemspec, etc, because of lack of time. If anyone wants they can install this gem for getting a ruby interface to wxwidgets. You also need to install ruby-1.8.7 (through recent macports) and wxwidgets-2.8.11_0 the stable wxwidgets version available again via macports. I have tested it and works on most things.

Regards,

• wxruby-2.0.1-x86-darwin-10.gem 2.9 MB

   Hi there,

   This probably isn't the best place for this. You could just push up the gem, or announce it on the ruby-talk mailing list. The gemspec isn't too hard to set up, if there's anything wrong with our docs let us know.
