Finally, after what seemed to be an endless series
of release candidates, I am happy to announce the
final release of version 182-14. Happy New Year!

This release of the One-Click Ruby Installer for
Windows is built from Ruby 1.8.2 final. It includes
OpenSSL, and upgrades RubyGems and FreeRIDE to their
latest versions.

You can download this release from:
http://rubyforge.org/frs/?gr...

Great work! A happy new year to you too.

One question though:

Can I FXRuby 1.0.29 with 1CI (One-Click-Installer)?

If yes, how would I do it?
The Installer for 1.0.29 is made for Ruby 1.8.1. Would I have to expect
problems because of that?

Happy new year to everyone and happy rubying, too

with the result that net-ssh works like a charm! Time to rethink my
admin scripts.

Thanks again, and happy new year!

Sure you can.

The version of FXRuby included in the one-click installer is the 1.2.2
rubygem. Since FXRuby 1.0.29 is a normal windows installer, you'll need to
first uninstall the 1.2.2 rubygem:

gem uninstall FXRuby

and then install FXRuby 1.0.29.

Actually, FXRuby versions 1.0.29 and 1.2.2 should be able to co-exist
on the same installation; that is, he doesn't have to unstall the
1.2.2 gem unless he just wants to reclaim the space disk used by that
gem.

What I have not verified is whether the FXRuby 1.0.29 installer, which
was built against Ruby 1.8.1, will work properly with this Ruby 1.8.2
installer. My gut feeling is that it won't, but I haven't actually
checked this out.

Since late last summer, all release candidates of the one-click installer
for 1.8.2 have included FXRuby 1.0.29, and FreeRIDE (my test vehicle for
making sure tat FXRuby is working) worked just fine. I only recently
switched to FXRuby 1.2.2 (I think in rc9 or rc10).

I don't mind the extra disk space used by the 1.2.2 gem. In fact,
migrating from 1.0.29 to 1.2.2 is easier with both of them working. :-)

That's the answer to my original question: "The Installer for 1.0.29 is
made for Ruby 1.8.1. Would I have to expect problems because of that?"

Up to now, I didn't run into any problems with the combination Ruby
1.8.2 / FXRuby_1.0.29_for_Ruby_1.8.1. (Apparently the one-click
installer didn't either.)

Thanks for your help and comments!

I don't know if it's only me, but the installer doesn't seem to update the
path properly. After deinstalling 1.8.2-14 RC9 and installing the final
release I'm no longer able to simply execute 'ruby' from the command line.
Starting FreeRIDE also complains about missing rubyw. Simply running a
script by e.g. "sample.rb" seems to work fine.

I installed as a user with administrative rights on two machines, and the
same problem applies to both. What's probably worth noting is that neither
of these accounts is the default adminstrative account.

Platform is WinXP Pro SP1 / SP2 (on the two machines I've tried).
