This works for me:

require 'PresentationFramework'
require 'PresentationCore'

class MainWindow < System::Windows::Window

  def update_status(status)
    puts status
  end

  def initialize
    meth = proc { |status| update_status status }
dispatcher.invoke System::Action.of(String).new(&meth), "jo"
  end
end

System::Windows::Application.new.run MainWindow.new
