wxRuby - Segmentation fault

Desktop wxRuby
1

Windows XP Professional + SP3

ruby 1.8.6 (2007-09-24 patchlevel 111) [i386-mswin32]

wxruby (1.9.9)

If you can tell me how to update to 1.9.10, I’d be happy to run
this and a few other tests. Also, if I should be posting bugs
somewhere else, please let me know.

Here’s a bit of code to reproduce a seg fault:

require ‘wx’
include Wx

class MyGui < App
def on_init
frame = Frame.new(nil, -1, ‘Seg fault’)
panel = Panel.new(frame, -1)

500.times { Window.new(frame) }

    frame.show()
end

end

MyGui.new.main_loop()

If the number is 64 (instead of 500), it doesn’t seg fault
(on my system).

Keep up the good work Alex. I’m looking forward to the
new release.

It can sometimes take a little time for the gem indexes to update, but
it seems to have happened now:

Abaddon:~ alex$ sudo gem install wxruby
Successfully installed wxruby-1.9.10-universal-darwin-9
1 gem installed
Abaddon:~ alex$ ruby -v
ruby 1.8.6 (2008-03-03 patchlevel 114) [universal-darwin9.0]

As an alternative, you can always download the gem file from
http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=35 and then do “gem install
” to install from a local file.

Also, if I should be posting bugs
somewhere else, please let me know.

Here is fine. If you have a rubyforge account, you can instead post bugs
direct to the rubyforge tracker
http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?atid=218&group_id=35 which helps us track
them. Being logged in when filing a bug ensures we can get further
information if needed.

500.times { Window.new(frame) }

    frame.show()
end

end

MyGui.new.main_loop()

Thanks for the sample code. It works fine for me on OS X; I’ll try it on
Windows when I get a chance.

I should note that:

“gem install wxruby” still points to 1.9.9 (as of 2009-Feb-04 16:00:00
PST)
“gem install wxruby2” doesn’t work (and probably isn’t supposed to)

Yep, I just installed 1.9.10 - thanks.

I just tried it on 1.9.10 and it still seg faults (on exit).

Hi Ridge,

2009/2/7 Ridge M. [email protected]:

I just tried it on 1.9.10 and it still seg faults (on exit).

I’ve been able to reproduce the seg fault with ruby-1.9.1 on MinGW.
On Linux, the exit takes some time but does not seg faults.
