Message: [QUOTE="Carlo E. Prelz, post: 4590152"] I am glad to see that ruby 1.9 is a reality, with great work done in the performance department. Thanks to all the fine brains that were involved. It is now difficult for me to test the new version because most of what I do uses GTK. And ruby-gnome2 does not compile with ruby 1.9.0. Most of the changes that are needed are trivial, but there is one big problem in glib, where the main loop is defined (rbglib_mainloop.c). This code does low-level manipulation of rb_thread_t structures, which are not public anymore. I posted a message on the ruby-gnome2-devel-en mailing list three days ago, but I saw no echo to it. I tried to put my hands into the code but it is a bit mysterious to me (why add a g_source? sources are supposed to monitor open files...). I was also encountering crashes where the C code of ruby-gnome2 did things like: proc_mod_eval = rb_eval_string("lambda{|obj,proc| obj.module_eval(&proc)}"); (two instances in rbgobj_object.c, one in rbgtkcontainer.c). I can provide my current patchset (from the latest svn source), with which I can successfully compile the whole code, but with it, timeout or idle functions to be ran within the main GTK loop do not work, and the screen is not refreshed... Also, some changes are wild guesses. Carlo [/QUOTE]
