hello people,
finally, an update! this release of Win32::GUI introduces many new features,
the most important being:
- the NEM (New Event Model), which allows for something like:
$Window->AddButton(
-text => 'say hello',
-onClick => sub { print "hello, world!\n"; },
);
*** editor's note *** there are actually many gotchas with NEM,
I'll elaborate more on this in a separate post.
- tooltips are now supported on most controls with the -tip => STRING
option.
- ListView checkboxes can now be managed with the ItemCheck() method;
there's also a new ItemCheck event for ListViews that gets fired when
you toggle an item's checkbox.
the biggest changes are in the codebase, which is now splitted in several
files. please note that something - particularly the NEM - may be broken
in this release (you already knew it, huh? ;-)
source code is available at my site (http://dada.perl.it, which is up and
running again :-) and at SourceForge. PPM binaries will follow ASAP -- if
someone wants to pack the binaries for us, please do it (you'll certainly
be faster than me ;-) and send me the files so that I can put it online.
cheers,
Aldo
