Segmentation faults for nil parents/owners
Reported by lyle (at lylejohnson) | November 11th, 2009 @ 10:31 PM | in 1.8.0
FXRuby seg-faults when nil is passed as the first parameter to various constructors: e.g. FXMainWindow.new(nil, ''), FXDialogBox.new(nil, ''). These cases should throw exceptions instead.

- Milestone set to “1.8.0”
Added checks for passing nil to FXMainWindow.new() and FXDialogBox.new() in FXRuby 1.6.15. Tim noted the problem still exists for many other classes (e.g. FXButton, FXHorizontalFrame, FXVerticalFrame, FXList, FXTable), but we're going to hold off on a more comprehensive solution until FXRuby 1.8 (since it's a pretty invasive change)

FXRuby is a library for developing powerful and sophisticated cross-platform graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for your Ruby applications. It’s based on the FOX Toolkit, a popular open source C++ library developed by Jeroen van der Zijp. What that means for you as an application developer is that you’re able to write code in the Ruby programming language that you already know and love, while at the same time taking advantage of the performance and functionality of a featureful, highly optimized C++ toolkit.
