Ruby中各GUI toolkit的比较

前面我们看到了一些Ruby中GUI编程中常见的库和它们的Ruby绑定版本（在Ruby中使用用C语言写的东西真的是太简单了），下面，还要介绍另外几个。前文是翻译的，本文是自己整理的。

vRuby(VisualuRuby)

      "VisualuRuby" 是一个用在MS windows下的Ruby GUI 库。这个项目由两部分组成：swin和vruby。swin是一个Ruby扩展库，vruby是对这个库的包装（ wrap），事件处理机制类似VisualBasic，但注意本项目名字和微软无关。

一段代码：

require 'vr/vruby' require 'vr/vrcontrol' class MyForm < VRForm def construct self.caption="Window Caption" self.move(300,200,400,400) addControl(VRButton,"btn1","Button1",80,50,80,40) end def btn1_clicked messageBox "Button Pushed" end end VRLocalScreen.showForm(MyForm) VRLocalScreen.messageloop

 

 

Rogue

 

 

      Rouge是一个高层的GUI toolkit，它解释类似XUL的xml格式的GUI描述语言，并且提供了本地Ruby API。Rouge设计目标是作为前端使用，后端允许用户选择适合自己的本地GUI toolkit实现。

 

Rouge遵从Ruby license

 

RubyWebDialogs

 

意思为用web浏览器作为Ruby应用程序的GUI

Conclusion by Sy: 我想这个库真的不太适合新手。尽管我能安装成功，但是我却不知道如何写应用程序，甚至是hello world。但我想目前这不是开发者的错误。一些例子可以见：http://rwdapplications.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl)

Alph

    Alph是一种中间性接口，它用来连接Ruby（1.8）和Flash（v7）。
