Re: linking gem to wx on Linux NEW BUG

HOWEVER… now my system hangs on close() Any ideas?

Hi Don,

Could you try the detailed steps in the following message/link ?
(http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/wxruby-users/2010-December/005773.html)

Cheers,
Chauk-Mean

Will do, Chauk-Mean, tomorrow morning. Thanks!

I do not use 1.9 yet, so I’ll be working with parallel steps on 1.8.

Hi, Chauk-Mean -

I installed everything from source, adding the switches you specified,
and
it still hangs on close. I found the wxWidgets-2.8.11 tarball, used SWIG
1.3.40, and wxruby-2.0.1. I’m using patchlevel 302 of Ruby 1.8.7. I
don’t
have git or svn access from within Intel’s firewalls.

I recompiled everything in the sequence you suggested, and everything
else
functions very well. It just locks up on close(). I’ve verified that
everything else is executed up to close().

I am extremely reluctant to move to Ruby 1.9 because that will break
other
things. I do use a number of other Ruby extensions.

Do the samples from wxRuby work ?
Could you post an example script (just a minimal script) where your
‘close’ issue occurs ?

Ruby-1.8.7 should work but I’ll try with the example script you will
provide.

Hi, Chauk-Mean -

Well, that was interesting. I had

             evt_close { exit }

in my code and I commented it out.

The next time I ran it I got the following backtrace:

Hi. Chauk-Mean -
Okay, newly installed system, Ubuntu 9.10 standard package level (no
pre-release).

  • Compiled RubyGems-1.3.7 from source
  • Compiled Ruby 1.8.7p330 from source
  • Compiled wxWidgets from source as suggested.
  • Reverted to SWIG 1.3.38 and compiled as suggested because it
    complained
    (which didn’t happen before) about my use of 1.3.40.
  • Compiled wxruby-2.0.1 from source and made gem & installed as
    requested.

Result:

./smarttvmark.rb:11:in `require’: no such file to load – wx (LoadError)
from ./smarttvmark.rb:11

What is happening is that wx.rb is being installed in

            /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/wx.rb

… and the module path after all the above incantations is

$: => [“/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8”,
“/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i686-linux”,
“/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby”, “/usr/local/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8”,
“/usr/local/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/i686-linux”,
“/usr/local/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby”, “/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8”,
“/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux”, “.”]

Now, yes, I can whack either the location or the $: path, but breaking
other
ruby deployables is not a friendly thing to do. :-\

So, this is now in my scripts:

$: << "/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8" if not $:.include?

“/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8”
$: << “/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/i486-linux” if not $:.include?
“/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/i486-linux”

I’ve injected the new path into $: in my script and now it finds gems
and
.so’s, but what I’d like to know is what would be the right way to fix
this inconsistency? It doesn’t appear to be a wxruby bug, but somewhere
between Ruby itself (from source) and RubyGems (from apt-get then gem
update
–system) the inconsistency is getting embedded. And where is it picking
up
i486-linux?

The good news is that my wxWindows close on completion. Thanks for your
suggestions and – as always – for the hard work that goes into making
these things fly. :smiley:

Hi Don,

Okay, newly installed system, Ubuntu 9.10 standard package level (no

Good. I was about to suggest you to not use pre-release packages.

  • Compiled RubyGems-1.3.7 from source

    It doesn’t appear to be a wxruby bug, but somewhere between
    Ruby itself (from source) and RubyGems (from apt-get then gem update
    –system) the inconsistency is getting embedded.

If you use apt-get for getting rubygems, you will indirectly use
Ubuntu’s ruby / rubygems !
That’s the root cause of your different directory problems.

If you go with ruby compiled from source, you should install rubygems
for this ruby installation and not for the one shipped with Ubuntu.
Just follow these steps :

  • make sure that your ruby compiled from source is in the path (and
    before any other ruby)
  • download & extract the rubygems source (e.g. rubygems-1.3.7.tar.gz)
  • in the source directory of rubygems, install rubygems via :
    ruby setup.rb
    or
    sudo /yourpathtoyourrubybin/ruby setup.rb

After that you should reinstall all your gems (e.g. wxruby)
sudo /yourpathtoyourrubybin/gem install wxruby
If you want to avoid using sudo => set the environment variable
GEM_HOME to some location in your home directory.

NB : I’ll add these steps for installing rubygems for ruby-1.8 in the
wiki page.

The good news is that my wxWindows close on completion. Thanks for your
suggestions and – as always – for the hard work that goes into making
these things fly. :smiley:

Great.

Cheers,
Chauk-Mean.

Hi Don,

Hi, Chauk-Mean -

else

functions very well. It just locks up on close(). I’ve verified that
everything else is executed up to close().

Do the samples from wxRuby work ?

When I run the examples that have no menu item, I get the segfault I
posted
in my last email when I press X. When I run one which does have a menu
item, I get the big long error dump, as below. It seems that it is my
system that is bollixed, but it would be nice to identify the dependency
that we aren’t catching because the way I have my machine set up here is
fairly common. It is Ubuntu 9.10 with the Pre-Released Updates enabled.

I haven’t done any crazy stuff on the machine, other than what I’ve done
with wxRuby and its dependencies. If you don’t have time to pursue this
further let me know, and I’ll wipe the machine and reload. I have
successfully installed and run wxruby-2.0.1 on several other boxes, but
I
think this is the only one with Pre-Release Updates enabled. If I do
that,
I’ll see if it runs on a normal 9.10 setup then enable the updates and
see
if it crashes again.

So, okay. Let me know if you want more info off my system or if you’d
rather I get the data from restarting on a clean box?

Hi Don,

Hi, Chauk-Mean!

Okay, newly installed system, Ubuntu 9.10 standard package level (no
pre-release).

Good. I was about to suggest you to not use pre-release packages.

Needed a FireFox that had some facility with HTML5. I’ll just pull it
down
as source and leave everything else the way it is, although that’s
painful
because of the rapid pace of updates.

Figured it was something like that. Need to figure a solution that works
for both my app and things installed via Ubuntu, though, because
inevitably
somebody’s going to update something the “wrong” way.

I suppose I can suck out the list of all installed gems, de-install
ruby-full and rubygems from Debian, and add in all the gems to my
install.
We really need to make them get along, though. Sooner or later somebody
who
knows Ubuntu and not my system is going to mess things up by using
apt-get
to add something to his system and it’s going to break things again.

these things fly. :smiley:

Great.

Many thanks for all the help! :smiley:
