Compiled win32ole 0.5.3?

[Chris Morris]

Anyone have a pre-compiled win32ole 0.5.3 available for download? I'm having
some seg faults with 0.5.2 and ruby 1.8p3 and want to see if 0.5.3 takes
care of them or not.

Where did your ruby-1.8.0-preview3 binary come from?

If your binary was downloaded from http://www.dm4lab.to/~usa/ruby/index_en.html,
ruby-1.8.0-preview3-i386-mswin32.zip contains win32ole 0.5.4 already.

If your binary was downloaded from http://rubyinstaller.sourceforge.net/,
ruby180-9.exe, which is preview2 anyway, contains win32ole 0.5.4 also.
But, it is hidden by version 0.5.2 which is located in preceding load path.

c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i386-msvcrt/win32ole.so --> 0.5.2
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/i386-mswin32/win32ole.so --> 0.5.4

You may have complaint about it.

I have confirmed that following code produces a "[BUG] Segmentation fault"
with win32ole 0.5.2 and 0.5.3. The version 0.5.4 is safe to do this.

require 'win32ole'
ie = WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application')
ev = WIN32OLE_EVENT.new(ie, 'DWebBrowserEvents')

Ah -- I started with 180-9.exe, then overlaid 1.8p3 from dm4lab.to.
You're correct about 0.5.4 being in there. I removed the 0.5.2 on the
site_ruby path and now with 0.5.4 the seg faults seem to be fine now (I
discovered a segfault talking to ADO this morning with 0.5.2).

(My other IE problem that I contacted you about off-list I'll have to
confirm at home tonight).

^^^^^^^^^^^
Where is the source for win32ole 0.5.4 ?
On RAA, I only got the versions up to 0.5.3 ... is it available some where
else?

I tried the code with version 0.5.4 which I got from your site mentioned
above
but I still keep getting the following error:

require 'win32ole'
ie = WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application')
ev = WIN32OLE_EVENT.new(ie, 'DWebBrowserEvents')

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I changed this to :

vvvvvvv
ev = WIN32OLE_EVENT.new(ie,'DWebBrowserEvents2')

But it did not seem to make any difference.

Thank you very much.

ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.8/ruby-1.8.0-preview3.tar.gz

The win32ole 0.5.4 source code is in the ruby source archive
though I don't know why the 0.5.4 is not available on RAA.

but I still keep getting the following error:

To figure out where is a problem, I would recommend to try it
with ruby-1.6.8. If it runs successfully, probably 1.8.0-preview
has something wrong with win32ole. If it does not run, probably
your Windows has something wrong with OLE Automation.

I guess you are using Windows 2000 according to your previous
postings. I am using it too, and I don't get such error.
