Hi James, I meant to reply to an earlier post of yours but then ran out of time. All the items listed on http://wiki.wxperl.nl/WxPerlBook will be included in the book. However, I¹m still a bit hesitant to include some of the items under Advanced Topics, in particular Database Access and Networking.
In relation to your reply below, I remember that you wrote the ³CEAmp.pl² program and posted it to the group. I think it¹s such a nice piece of programming. At the time I noticed that the application structure was quite different in that you defined your own Frame class, which was inherited from Wx::Frame, and the subroutine OnInit() would instantiate an object of your Frame class. Does that fit the second application structure in your list below? For the first application structure I¹m assuming the simple structure where all widgets are created in the subroutine OnInit(). Would that be correct? As for the third application structure, I¹m not sure what it looks like. Many thanks for your input. Cheers, Ron.
