fxruby gem problem

[Len Lawrence]

Dear ruby acolytes

ruby 1.8.5

I am floundering here, again.
Having more or less decided to switch from rubytk to fxruby I have
installed FOX and the fxruby-1.4.7 gem in Mandriva 2007. The simple
test program from David Berube's book Practical Ruby Gems does not
work. In fact none of the package test examples will run either. They all
fall down trying to load fox14. This is my test script:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
require 'fox14'

include Fox

zeg = FXApp.new

fen = FXMainWindow.new( zeg, "Test app" )

abutton = FXButton.new( fen, 'Click me!' )
abutton.connect( SEL_COMMAND ) do
abutton.text = "I've been clicked!"
end

zeg.create
fen.show( PLACEMENT_SCREEN )
zeg.run
-------------------------------------------------------------------
and the error is:
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require': no such file to load -- fox14 (LoadError)
from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require'
from zeg.rb:2

The gem search path is:
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.4.7
and the target is lib/fox14 which certainly exists and contains a
number of ruby scripts; aliases.rb, calendar.rb, core.rb, etc.

It looks like ruby is trying to load the directory as a file, perhaps
as fox14.rb. Does anybody know what causes this behaviour? All the
available fxruby scripts seem to imply that fox14 should be acceptable
as a target. Is there some kind of configuration that needs to be
performed to get ruby to open it as a directory and load all the
files? Could there be an error in the gem spec file?

Simple gems like blinkenlights and creditcard work as expected but
they have single targets like lib/blinkenlights.rb and
lib/creditcard.rb.

Also, with require_gem instead of require this is the error report:
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:251:in `report_activate_error': Could not find RubyGem fox14 (>= 0.0.0) (Gem::LoadError)
from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:188:in `activate'
from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:66:in `active_gem_with_options'
from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:59:in `require_gem'
from zeg.rb:2

It sounds as though the gem installation failed at some point. What
version of RubyGems are you using? Were there any error messages
during the build?

Please note that FXRuby version 1.4.7 is a very, very old version
which is no longer supported. It's quite possible that there have
been changes to GCC, or Ruby, or RubyGems, or who-knows-what, that
have rendered FXRuby 1.4.7 unbuildable in your particular development
environment. Is there some reason why you can't use the latest
release of FXRuby (currently, version 1.6.13)?

I did try that at some point and have just tried it again. It fails to
build the native extensions. My guess was that the FOX library version
had to match and Mandriva supplied libFOX-1.4. Certainly the native
extensions compile with FOX-1.4 and fxruby-1.4.7. There is a FOX-1.7 on
the system but I assume that would lead to compilation errors as well.

I shall check Mandriva 2008 to see if FOX-1.6 is available.

Sorry, I missed your first question. Rubygems is 0.9.0.

Apologies to all for replying to my own posts - the problem is I have to
interleave this stuff with my day job which is looking after my invalid
wife.

Have tried out fxruby-1.6.13 on Mandriva 2008 with a similar failure:
zeg.rb:2:in `require': no such file to load -- fox16 (LoadError)

ruby -v => 1.8.6
gem -v => 0.9.0

It looks like the Mandriva packages are broken. Maybe time to remove the
ruby tree and install the whole lot from source?

Let's not be that drastic yet! Can you send me (off-list) the contents
of your /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.6.13 directory, e.g.

ls -lR /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.6.13 > contents.txt

I want to see if it even built the extension (which should be in
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fxruby-1.6.13/ext/fox16/fox16.so).

Sorry Lyle, I tried to contact you offlist and the message bounced. This
happens to me a lot. So I am sending the whole reply to the list with
apologies and some selective excisions.

Thanks for your personal attention Lyle. I see that you are the author
listed in the gemspec.

You are correct - the shareable object library is missing. A successful
installation was reported but during the attempted build of fox16.so gcc
posted a large number of warnings, all related to deprecated conversions
from string constant to char*. There may well have been errors buried
in that lot.

Please see the attachment. I will reinstall the gem and try to capture
the compiler output.

Sorry, I missed your first question. Rubygems is 0.9.0.

Drat, I should have picked up on this sooner.

There was a bug in RubyGems 0.9.0 that caused it to do a "make clean"
on compiled extension modules after it finished compiling them, and
that's almost certainly why the shared object for FXRuby (fox16.so)
isn't present. The problem is described here:

http://rubyforge.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=8936

and also here:

https://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?
func=detail&aid=4948&group_id=126&atid=575

It's fixed in more recent versions of RubyGems; if you upgrade to the
latest RubyGems, this should solve your problems with installing FXRuby.

Hope this helps,

Lyle

Drat, I should have picked up on this sooner.

Just to close the lid on this. Lyle offered some very valuable
suggestions about upgrading. The final problem was solved by placing the
statement:

require 'rubygems'

at the beginning of the script. This did not appear in the book example
presumably because its inclusion was to be understood. With that change
the fox16 object was found and loaded. All is well, apart from my blushes.

No blushes necessary. I've added a sidebar for the next release of
the beta book that talks about RubyGems configuration and addresses
this problem.
