Hello
Im a newby with ruby. Im trying to do some user interface with tk. I
have Ruby 1.8.5-21 and it's working fine.
I also installed activestate tcl 8.5.0.0 beta-6. From there on, I don't
really know how to bind Ruby and tk together to create some GUI.
Any suggestion?

You probably should have used the one-click installer.
If you use the one click installer tk is included.

I don't know of any books about ruby tk but try this;

hello,
I used the one click installer to install Ruby.
then I try to run a test using this code:
require 'tk'
root = TkRoot.new { title "Ex1" }TkLabel.new(root) {
text 'Hello, World!'
pack { padx 15 ; pady 15; side 'left' }
}
Tk.mainloop
however a popup tells me that:
"This application has failed to start because tk84.dll was not found.
re-installing the application may fix this problem."
So should i reinstall ruby again?
And here is the cmd line error screen.
C:\ruby_prog>ruby gui.rb

I installed an older version with no problem.
It looks like others have experienced this, too.

Please use ActiveTcl 8.4.x.
Maybe, tcltklib in One-Click-Installer is configured
without "--enable-tcltk_stubs" option.

A couple of additional details:
I also solved the above problem in Ruby 184-17 under WinXP by
installing
ActiveState's ActiveTcl 8.4, but I had to copy these folders and
files:
- copy the folders 'tcl8.4' and 'tk8.4' from Tcl/lib to ruby/lib
- copy tk84.dll from Tcl/bin to ruby/bin

files:
- copy the folders 'tcl8.4' and 'tk8.4' from Tcl/lib to ruby/lib
- copy tk84.dll from Tcl/bin to ruby/bin
I fixed the same problem by simply uninstalling ActiveTcl 8.5.x and
installing the last of the 8.4.x series. Unlike above, I didn't have to
copy any folders or DLL's (at least not yet).
Thanks for helping me fix the problem, folks! For others with this same
problem, start by ensuring you have ActiveTcl 8.4.x instead of 8.5.x
installed.
