FreeRide and FXScintilla

1

Hello all,

I am trying to get Free Ride running on my Red Hat 8.0 box and trying to
get a fxscintilla window running for my own apps. Here is what I have
done so far:

  1. I got fox 1.0.26, made it and installed it with the option
    –with-opengl=opengl. It worked fine, examples worked fine.
  2. I got FXRuby 1.0.19 and set it up and installed it (with no special
    options). It worked fine, examples worked fine.
  3. It got FXScintilla 1.49.1 made it and installed it (with no special
    options). It worked fine (as far as I can tell). There is no example
    program to run to see it come up on the screen with an editiing window.
  4. I untar free-ride version and then run ‘sh run.bat’.

Free ride comes up and then I select new from the menu and get an
exception saying…

./plugins/rubyide_fox_gui/editpane.rb:81:in initialize': uninitialized constant FXScintilla at FreeRIDE::FoxRenderer::EditPane::Renderer (NameError) from ./plugins/rubyide_fox_gui/editpane.rb:47:innew’
from ./plugins/rubyide_fox_gui/editpane.rb:47:in start' from ./plugins/rubyide_fox_gui/editpane.rb:32:incall’
from ./freebase/databus.rb:613:in notify' from ./freebase/databus.rb:610:ineach_value’
from ./freebase/databus.rb:610:in notify' from ./freebase/databus.rb:619:innotify’
from ./freebase/databus.rb:215:in initialize' ... 24 levels... from ./freebase/core.rb:35:innew’
from ./freebase/core.rb:35:in startup' from freeride.rb:53:instartup’
from freeride.rb:66

So I went down the path to see if fxscintilla is working correctly. I
took the simple program from the fxscintilla readme and compiled it and
it worked!

Now if I look in the FXRuby installation, there is a scintilla-test.rb
in the examples directory. This fails, saying that the initialize should
have 0 parameters instead of four. There is a file in FXRuby/ext/fox
called scintilla_wrap.cpp.bak. Why is it a .bak?

Answers to any of the above questions would be welcome.

Thanks in advance,

Steve Tuckner

Sorry to reply to my own post, but I found a config option from the
fxruby.org website documentation appendix. I assume this will work.
Sorry to have bothered yo’all :frowning:

Here we go again…

After a re-install of FXRuby, I get the following error when running
scintilla-test.rb

scintilla-test.rb:3:in `require’:
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/i686-linux/fox.so: undefined symbol:
_ZTV13FXRbScintilla -
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/i686-linux/fox.so (LoadError)
from scintilla-test.rb:3

Any ideas now?

Steve,

Welcome brave soul to running FreeRIDE on OS X. I am doing it right
now, so I know it works. I am currently running fox-1.0.30,
fxscintilla 1.49.1 and FXRuby 1.0.19. I mainly followed the
instructions here:

http://rwiki.jin.gr.jp/cgi-bin/rw-
cgi.rb?cmd=view;name=FreeRIDE+on+X11+for+Mac+OS+X

Pay particular attention to the .pkg files spoken of at the top of this
wiki page (for jpeg, png, tiff, etc). I used these instead of using
Fink. Also, I have ripper built for OS X (source parser)…but have
yet to post that to rubyide.org. Lastly, I am running on 1.8 (out of
CVS). I encountered problems with the 1.6.7 distro Apple shipped (bad
SHA hashing algorithm) and upgraded to 1.8.

Let me know how you are coming either here on the list, or directly.

This error message indicates that the FXScintilla support code was not
compiled into FXRuby. I saw your previous post in which you said you
found the configuration options to build FXScintilla support into
FXRuby, but it clearly didn’t “take”.

All I can suggest is:

  1. Change to the build directory for FXRuby;

  2. Type ‘ruby install.rb clean’ to clean out the build files;

  3. Type ‘ruby install.rb config [… options …]’
    to configure the build, and be sure to pass in the
    ‘–with-fxscintilla-include’ and ‘–with-fxscintilla-lib’
    options.

  4. Type ‘ruby install.rb setup’ to kick off the build.
    As a sanity check, be sure that ‘-DWITH_FXSCINTILLA’
    appears among flags being passed to the compiler.

  5. When it’s done, re-install by typing ‘ruby install.rb install’.

Hope this helps,

Lyle

Rich:

I also followed the instructions you listed (or thought I did)
and have problems with FXRuby running. I get a bus error.
However, the fox apps works great.

Do you know what could be wrong?

I am not running on OS X but Red Hat 8.0. I haven’t rebuilt with opengl
disabled, but why would that matter when it fails on the undefined symbol:
_ZTV13FXRbScintilla? Now none of the fxruby example programs work (ie.
hello.rb). They worked before I reconfigured FXRuby with
the --with-fxscintilla-include and --with-fxscintilla-lib directives.

Perhaps it is not finding the libfxscintilla library?

have done so far:

  1. I got fox 1.0.26, made it and installed it with the option

  2. I got FXRuby 1.0.19 and set it up and installed it (with

    program to run to see it come up on the screen with an editiing
    window.
  4. I untar free-ride version and then run ‘sh run.bat’.

Free ride comes up and then I select new from the menu and get an
exception saying…

./plugins/rubyide_fox_gui/editpane.rb:81:in initialize': uninitialized constant FXScintilla at FreeRIDE::FoxRenderer::EditPane::Renderer (NameError) from ./plugins/rubyide_fox_gui/editpane.rb:47:in new’

FXRuby/ext/fox called scintilla_wrap.cpp.bak. Why is it a .bak?

Answers to any of the above questions would be welcome.

Thanks in advance,

Thanks Lyle, that did the trick.

Now FreeRide runs, but the run menu has no debug entry in it. Is there
something I have to enable to allow it to debug?

Did you build with opengl support enabled?

If so, disable it (in fox and fxruby) and try again.

Oh, so that is it. Why does opengl work in fox but not in fxruby?
