Subject: Re: How does WxRuby work ??

Hi Vinh,

The way ruby interfaces with native libraries (such as wxWidgets) is very similar to a compiled program. You have to write an "extension" (in the case of wxWidgets there already is an extension, wxRuby), which is then linked with the library (wxWidgets). To install such an extension, you probably want to use gems. You can get a binary for Windows, linux or Mac OS X using 'gem install wxruby2-preview'.

You already need to have wxWidgets installed, if I'm not mistaken, preferably in you C:\Windows\system32 directory.
