Re: Where is Ruby 1.9 'TK' library?

alex.deca...@millersville.edu (Alex DeCaria) — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:38:03 UT

after running 'make' the results are:
gcc -shared -s -o tcltklib.so stubs.o tcltklib.o -L. -LC:/Ruby19/lib
-LC:/Tcl/lib -L. -Wl,--enable-auto-image-base,- -enable-auto-import
-lmsvcrt-ruby191 -ltk84 -ltcl84 -lshell32 -lws2_32
Then I do 'make install' and get the contents of the attached .txt file.

Dear Stuart,
Thanks for these great points. It is a really key component of Ruby that you can start off with something simple and progress to more advanced concepts and techniques as you learn more. It is a very fluid growth.
I was looking at this page about OpenJDK on Wikipedia
This seems to imply that the GPL applies to the core implementation, but not the Java Class Libraries. I'm not sure where this stands in terms of proprietary / free + open.

Invalid command 'PassengerRuby', perhaps misspelled or defined by a
module not included in the server configuration

Brian,
I really appreciate your help. I tried your steps and they all work. I
can see all the data in the wire dump. But how can I get to it using one
of these methods? There must be a way to extract the information.
Thanks,
Axel

Re: TkFont from file or data

antonio.gale...@gmail.com (Antonio Galeone) — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 22:26:44 UT

Thank you so much, there are useful ideas:
a first solution could be :
in "windows" try to call AddFontResourceEx of GDI dll
and in "linux" copy font file in ~/fonts dir.
I'll try to do so.

Antonio

Right, so not an issue in this case.
Sounds to me like you've given it plenty of thought and are good to go.
Best of luck with your project!

Re: ruby 1.9.1, rubygems, rvm. trouble getting sqlite3 to work.

i think my problem was having both sqlite3 and sqlite3-ruby installed
thanks for the tip!

I should have been clearer in the example. This is the actual situation:
class FreightViewModel
def initialize
do_some_init_stuff()
end
end
and this is what it will become if i apply that solution:
class FreightViewModel
def new(*args, &block)
obj = allocate
obj.do_some_init_stuff
obj.send(:initialize, *args, &block)

Not necessarily for the best.
Consider what happens when you buy, say, a cat. Do you have the right
to torture it to death over a long period of time? Most people would say
you don't.
If you buy a house, do you have the right to, say, set fire to it? Probably
not, especially if it's near other houses.

make sure you don't have both sqlite3 and sqlite3-ruby.
Those two modules can conflict.

You put ???, what is supposed that means?
For the record: gem install sqlite3-ruby should install ruby as long
you have sqlite3-dev headers installed:
The package is "libsqlite3-dev"
If you installed "sqlite3" gem, let me tell you is an FFI
implementation, which is broken. I asked the gem author to change the
