A new gem is ready for download, this is the latest pull from Subversion source, tagged at 1.5.1.1192. This gem has a new install process, due to a new dependency on other gems.
After download the gem, execute the following commands in the same directory as the gem:
> gem install win32-process --include-dependencies > gem install watir
Changes in this release include:
- Migrated IE.new_process from watir/contrib and improved its reliability. We now recommend IE.new_process over IE.new as a way to avoid numerous errors detailed in http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-150.
- Added IE.start_process. This works like IE.start, but uses the new_process mechanism to start IE.
- Added IE.new_window and IE.start_window. This are synonyms for IE.new and IE.start.
- Added dependency on the win32-process gem.
- Rdoc updates from Jeff Fry
- Added IE.each, which iterates through the various IE windows currently open.
- Updated WindowHelper and watir/dialog to work with IE7
