You can't register the AutoIt DLL with the RubyGems, can you? That's another plus for the one-click installer.
Right now the gem does not register this DLL. I do have a way around this problem, but i don't have a way to unregister it. Consequently, it would block uninstallation. Instead the Gem doc currently instructs you to do this manually.
I've talked to Chad Fowler (ruby-gem author) about this. He suggested the workaround, and i think we agreed that it would be better if the gem system had install and uninstall hooks.
Do you see AutoIt remaining as part of the Watir distribution, or being replaced by Watir popup-handling methods that just use COM?
Raghu and the folks and Qantom are creating a Win32 library in Ruby that we plan to switch over to for our popup handling methods. This is an all-ruby library. I'll make sure it has a gem.
We plan to switch over to using this library instead of AutoIt. Bret _____________________ Bret Pettichord www.pettichord.com _______________________________________________ Wtr-general mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
