Hello,

Is it difficult to package and distribute a wxPerl application? I am
thinking, for example, how Windows and Mac OS don't have a package
manager with wxPerl, wxWidgets and so on, so you have to package all
the dependencies with you. And for Linux the situation isn't much
better. Yes Linux distros have a package manager, but every distro has
different packages, different versions and so on.

This is a general problem with any high-level language (Perl, Ruby,
Python). If you write the program in C or C++ at least you can try to
compile stuff statically. Last year I experimented with wxPython as
well as C++/wxWidgets. I managed to make a simple cross-platform app
with C++ but not wxPython. But I would prefer to use a high-level
language like Perl or Python than use C++.

So, in brief, is there any reasonable hope of using wxPerl to write a
realistic application that you can give to your users and expect it to
work?

Thanks for the help.

Daniel.
