Thanks for that help. Seems to be just what I wanted.

I think he means he wants to use threads. So that one thread can take
care of the window in the foreground and another the code in the
background...

What do you mean by "in background"?
If you wish to perform some tasks "in background" while user
sees login window, enters his login/pass, etc - I think the only way is
to create a multithreaded application.
But if you just want to create/show window and then perform some
extra code, you can call Win32::GUI::DoEvent instead of
Win32::GUI::Dialog(). It will draw the window and all stuff but won't
"stop" for interaction with user. Of course you should call
Win32::GUI::Dialog() at some point to allow user to interact with your
application.

Subject: [perl-win32-gui-users] Window doesn't appear until code
has finished
I'm writing a login gui in perl and I've got a mental block:
I've created my gui:
my $main = Win32::GUI::Window->new(
-name => 'Main',
-width => 600,
-height => 400,
-text => 'GHS Login',
-sizable=> 0,
-hasminimize => 0,
-hasmaximize=> 0,
);
... widgets positioned
$main->Center();
$main->Show();
Win32::GUI::Dialog();
exit(0);
My question is, how can I get the window to be displayed and
then have perl code running in the background?
I've tried:
sub Main_Activate {
... perl code
return 0;
}
The perl code runs and then the window appears.
Thanks
Brian Rowlands
