Fxri - gems - fxruby

I am using Ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32] on Windows XP.

fxri working perfectly before installing Fxruby. Then, after installing,
stops working:

Am I missing something? The output follows.

Thanks a lot.

I had this problem in the past too. The installed fxri needs fxruby
1.2.x. You have two options:

1. Remove fxruby 1.4.x and (re-)install fxruby 1.2.6. fxri does not work
if both versions are installed!

2. Manually patch the gemspec file for fxri. Edit
  <ruby-base-dir>\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\specifications\fxri-0.3.2.gemspec

with a text editor. Near the end change the line

  s.add_dependency(%q<fxruby>, [">= 1.2.0"])

to

  s.add_dependency(%q<fxruby>, [">= 1.2.0", "< 1.3"])

After this, fxri works with the previously installed fxruby 1.2.x and
ignores newer versions.

Be aware that the FreeRide which is included in the One-click-installer
does depend on fxruby 1.2.x too. For freeride to work again you would
have to change several files in
<ruby-base-dir>\freeride\freebase\lib\freebase\. I haven't done or
checked this as I don't use freeride.

FWIW, I just sent an e-mail to Martin Ankerl (the author of fxri) to
see what's up with this. This is a known problem that a lot of people
have run into, and I don't know if it's going to be fixed or not...

Thanks Holger! fxri working again! About FreeRide I neither use it, so
for now it is no prob (using Eclipse).
