Few possible reasons:
- if gtk+-2.16, then Gtk2::AboutDialog have get_name() overridden.
- if gtk+-2.18 or 2.20 (can't remember), then its a gtk+ and not gtk2-perl
issue.
You can use:
$widget->get('name')
in general to make sure you get the widget name property, but for builder
objects with later gtk+ versions, its not really a Gtk2::Widgets, and the name
property usually returns an empty string, so you need to use:
$builder_object->Gtk2::Buildable::get_name
Hope that helps.
