Hangs with tk for me have typically historically meant that Tk wasn't found (I think, anyway). that for was 1.8 I've never seen it for 1.9, though. Here's a zipped up copy of my binaries (with the gem compiled in there). They might not even need the tcl binaries in the path...but probably do (8.4 binaries). http://rubydoc.ruby-forum.com/distro/ruby191p376.tgz HTH. -rp -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

It did find Tk and used it to compile the extension; and things seem to work afterwards. Maybe part of the reason is that I was using Tk 8.5 instead of 8.4? > > Here's a zipped up copy of my binaries (with the gem compiled in there). > They might not even need the tcl binaries in the path...but probably do > (8.4 binaries). > > http://rubydoc.ruby-forum.com/distro/ruby191p376.tgz Thanks. I'll try to download 8.4 so I can try it out later.
From: Alex DeCaria on 19 Feb 2010 14:05 I got an interesting result. I was able to install tk_from_gem and it installed and worked. However, if I run my Tk application using Ruby 1.9 it loads noticably slow (the Gui builds frame-by-frame as I watch it). If I run the exact same application using Ruby 1.8, it loads instantaneously. I've attached the application I'm running (a units converter program) in case anyone wants to play with it. Please note it was my first attempt at GUI programming, so I know it's not the best for style, etc. --Alex Attachments: http://www.ruby-forum.com/attachment/4501/unit_converter.rbw -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I get the same thing with tk_as_gem (and approximately the same thing with 1.9.1 with tk "built inline" (non gem)) [1] Wonder why it's slower. -rp [1] http://rubydoc.ruby-forum.com/distro/ruby-1.9.1-p243-tweaked.tgz -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Roger, could you give some more guidance on what gem/extconf switches are required to get tk_as_gem built when Tk is installed somewhere other than C:\Tcl? Also, is there anything I can do to help diagnose the hanging problem that happens on my other computer (which does have C:\Tcl)? |
