Subject: Need help on perl graphical interface


 Hi,

 I don't know anything about perl graphics. I would explain excatly what I
want.

 I want to develope a interactive graphical interface which can display all
the nodes in a network in a tree representation.
 I should be able to draw that tree upon reading a data base (or real time
data).
 I should be able to click on to a particular node in that network and
should be able to do what I wish on that node( i.e. to make it interactive
and what I wish to do is not that important right now).

 Can any one tell me is it possible in perl ? I have the necessary backend
support in perl.

 Do you recommend to use XML or Jawa or Xwindows instead ?

 Regards
 Rajeev

Perl on its own has no graphical capability, but almost
anything is possible via its modular extensions.

Check out the module

  Tk - a graphical user interface toolkit for Perl

but beware that a user interface is always at least
95% of the design and about 80% of the implementation :)

About the design:
you should yourself ask this question:
should i biuld a UI from scratch with Tk module or
should i consider biulding a web application (browser as client).

Investigate if a web application will meet your requirements ...

José.

To expand on Jos's point, if you can use a web application you can buy
some slick looking templates for $20 off the 'net, and/or edit your web
page in Dreamweaver/Frontpage pro, or even just export an OpenOffice.org
document to HTML.  Then you can just cut and paste the code into a
HEREDOC without many problems.

I'm not sure there is a visual gui maker for TK, although I assume there
would be one somewhere.  (Quality possibly varying)

On 'nix:

 perl -MCPAN -e shell

On Windows [ActiveState]:
 ppm

On either:

ppm|CPAN install Tk

then:

 perldoc Tk
 perldoc Tk::Tree
 perldoc Tk::Scrolled

Tree is a great object, with infinite possibilities for its application.  Get to know 
it.
