[Wxruby-dev] Re: WxRuby status?

[Richard Kilmer]

Things are progressing great.  Kevin Smith has taken the development 
lead and made significant progress in the creation of a functional 
Ruby-WxWindows library using a templating approach w/out SWIG.  An 
Alpha release is being finalized after a discussion on the best naming 
convention when wrapping the underlying Wx classes/methods/constants.  
By consensus we decided to adopt a Rubyesque (underscore_methods) 
convention, and generate documentation accordingly.  Kevin is now busy 
finalizing that name change, and updating the samples.  Once the code 
is ready, Kevin will produce a binary for Linux, and Curt Hibbs will 
build a binary for Win32.  I am going to try and build one for OS X.

The WxRuby project is using Savannah so the code, et al is in CVS at:

http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/wxruby/

And there is a Wiki located here (although not updated too often right 
now...busy coding!):

http://www.wxruby.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl

There is some old code in the CVS repository that will be removed soon. 
 The two directories under CVS that contain the active code are 'src' 
and 'samples'.  Once cleaned up, these and a few others (doc, etc) will 
be left.  If you check out the CVS tree, just ignore the other 
directories for now.

Once the files are released (for Alpha) they will be located on the 
Savannah project page and we will make an announcement here (and on 
RAA).

Best,

-Rich
