Subject: Visual C++ Run-time error with rubyw.exe

Hi folks,

I hope someone can help me with this.  I'm using the latest one-click
installer of Ruby 1.8.2 on Windows XP-SP1 and am having problems with
rubyw (i.e. the headless ruby interpreter).

I have no problems with ruby.exe and for a simple test (e.g. writing a
line of text to a file) rubyw works okay, however for applications
which make use of fxruby I get the following error reported:

|---------------------------
|Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
|---------------------------
|Runtime Error!
|
|Program: c:\ruby\bin\rubyw.exe
|
|This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
|Please contact the application's support team for more information.
|

On advice from Curt Hibbs I deleted all previous fxruby installations
and made sure that I had the latest fxruby installed, i.e. 1.2.3
(ms-win32).

Whenever I run an app it opens the window, maybe paints the contents,
and then crashes.

Can anyone help me fix this?

Regards,

Matt
