[Fxruby-users] FXSegment question

[Fredrik J. <fr...@po...>]

Hi,

I'm going to draw an object which consists of three separate lines.

I thought of doing it like this:

(In initialize:)
@segments = []
@segments << FXSegment.new(x11, y11, x21, y21)
@segments << FXSegment.new(x12, y12, x22, y22)
@segments << FXSegment.new(x13, y13, x23, y23)
(In draw:)
gc.drawLineSegments(@segments)

I'm saving the segments list so I don't have to setup all the lines
all the time (let's say they're hard to calculate).

This doesn't work, as FXSegments.new doesn't take arguments, so I'd
probably have to do it like this:

segment = FXSegment.new
segment.x1 = x11
[...]
@segments << segment
segment = FXSegment.new
[...]

But then I'd probably rewrite the earlier segment, so I have to:

segment1 = FXSegment.new
segment1.x1 = x11
[...]
segments << segment1
segment2 = FXSegment.new
[...]

Which ends up quite verbose...

Does anyone have a better solution to this?

I thought of downloading the FXRuby source and patch FXSegment.new
myself, but figured there probably was a better solution I couldn't
see...

Thanks in advance,
