Re: "rubyscript2exe", cannot put picture in the project??? - RUBY

I can't do it, I use

require 'rubyscript2exe'
$pic = RUBYSCRIPT2EXE.appdir + '/t.jpg'
picturebox2_img = Image.new($pic)

where t.jpg is in the same directory with .rb file and when I run with
ruby It works but when I convert to exe, and move to different directory
it doesn't work :'(

Why do you use $ in front of a local variable? AFAIK, that's reserved
for system use.

Try to include the jpg file by setting RUBYSCRIPT2EXE.lib, as explained
by the docs.


Best regards,

Jari Williamsson

I still struggle with it :'(
here's my code

require 'wx'
require 'rubyscript2exe'

include Wx
include RUBYSCRIPT2EXE

RUBYSCRIPT2EXE.lib = ["t.jpg"]

.....

picturebox2_img = Image.new('t.jpg')

.....

I think when I convert to exe and delete file 't.jpg' application won't
work because picturebox2_img is make from directory and when I restore
't.jpg' from recycle bin it's work

how can I add jpg to lib?? I do something wrong

Which command do you use to "compile" the application?

I install rubyscript2exe.gem
and use

rubyscript2exe calculator.rb

in cmd and it create calculator.exe in the same directory
what's wrong

Compiling a script, just, uh, compiles your script. It doesn't
include the other application files.

However, compiling a directory does include other files.

Create the directory calculator, move calculator.rb to
calculator/init.rb, move t.jpg to calculator/t.jpg and run the
following command:

rubyscript2exe calculator/

Variable names that begin with ($) aren't reserved for system use,
they're global variables.
