Hi, All
Do you know I’m working on wxRuby at http://sourceforge.jp/projects/wxruby ?
You can download the beta version 0.01.
Sorry for no documents,many missing classes and methods.
Tested on
Windows XP
wxMSW 2.4.0
ruby 1.8.0 preview2
Visual C++ 6.0
RedHat Linux 8.0
wxGTK 2.4.0
ruby 1.8.0 preview2
gcc 3.2
Here is sample code.
=begin CODE
require 'wx'
include Wx
Minimal_Quit = 1
Minimal_About = WxID_ABOUT
def labeledEntry(parent,sizer,label,default)
sizer.Add(WxStaticText.new(parent,-1,label.to_s,
WxDefaultPosition,WxDefaultSize,WxALIGN_RIGHT),1,WxALIGN_CENTER_VERTICAL)
sizer.Add(r=WxTextCtrl.new(parent,-1,default.to_s,
WxDefaultPosition,WxDefaultSize,WxALIGN_LEFT),1,WxALIGN_CENTER_VERTICAL)
return r
end
class MyFrame < WxFrame
def initialize(title,pos,size,style=WxDEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE)
super(nil,-1,title,pos,size,style)
if WxRUBY_PLATFORM == "WXMSW"
SetIcon(WxIcon.new("mondrian.ico",WxBITMAP_TYPE_ICO))
else
SetIcon(WxIcon.new("mondrian.xpm",WxBITMAP_TYPE_XPM))
end
menuFile = WxMenu.new
helpMenu = WxMenu.new
helpMenu.Append(Minimal_About, "&About...\tF1", "Show about dialog")
menuFile.Append(Minimal_Quit, "E&xit\tAlt-X", "Quit this program")
menuBar = WxMenuBar.new
menuBar.Append(menuFile, "&File")
menuBar.Append(helpMenu, "&Help")
SetMenuBar(menuBar)
CreateStatusBar(2)
SetStatusText("Welcome to wxRuby!")
EVT_MENU(self, Minimal_Quit, "OnQuit")
EVT_MENU(self, Minimal_About, "OnAbout")
end
def OnQuit(event)
Close(TRUE)
end
def OnAbout(event)
msg = sprintf("This is the About dialog of the minimal sample.\n" \
"Welcome to %s", WxVERSION_STRING)
WxMessageBox(msg, "About Minimal", WxOK | WxICON_INFORMATION, self)
end
end
class WxRbApp < WxApp
def OnInit
frame = MyFrame.new("Minimal wxRuby App",WxPoint.new(50, 50),
WxSize.new(450, 340))
frame.Show(TRUE)
end
end
a = WxRbApp.new
a.MainLoop()
=end CODE
I have some issues about current version.
-
Library name should be renamed?
require ‘wx’ ==> require ‘wxRuby’ or else. -
Constant name should be renamed?
WxOK ==> OK or
Wx::WxOK ==> Wx::OK -
Event handler method name convention
EVT_MENU(self,Minimal_Quit,“OnQuit”) ==>
EVT_MENU(self,Minimal_Quit,:OnQuit) or else. -
Ruby thread support routine
I used OnIdle event handler like this.void wxRbApp::OnIdle(wxIdleEvent& event)
{
struct timeval wait;wait.tv_sec = 0; wait.tv_usec = 100000; /* 100ms */ CHECK_INTS; if (!rb_thread_critical) rb_thread_wait_for(wait); wxApp::OnIdle(event);}
Is it the best way or is there some other way?
-
building C++ extention library without SWIG or other automated tools.
It needs more time and more coding, but the source code is easy to
understand.
What do you think about the above issues?
I wish someone inspect my source code and correct bugs and problems.
