Message-Id: <Xns9717E6650F8FErbootliberoit@193.70.192.192>
A new version of wxPerl, the Perl bindings to wxWidgets, is out!
wxWidgets is a free and cross platform (Windows/Motif/GTK/Mac) C++ GUI
toolkit with native look and feel. (visit http://www.wxwidgets.org/
for details).
You can download wxPerl sources from
$CPAN/authors/id/M/MB/MBARBON/Wx-0.26.tar.gz;
Screenshots: http://wxperl.sourceforge.net/sshot01.html
Binary packages for ActivePerl/Win32 8xx builds, Red Hat
Linux and Mac OS X are available along with documentation
in HTML and MS HTML Help format from
http://wxperl.sourceforge.net/download.html
The project home page is http://wxperl.sourceforge.net/. There is also
a mailing list dedicated to wxPerl users:
wxperl-users@lists.sourceforge.net
Changes since the last release:
- Fixed various Wx::GridBagSizer problems.
- Fixed Original Object Return for Wx::PlGridCellEditor and
Wx::PlGridCellRenderer.
- Removed the requirement of deriving from Wx::App.
- Expanded Wx::PlWindow.
- Added Wx::Perl::TextValidator (thanks to Johan Vromans).
- Changed the interface for Wx::PlDataObjectSimple::GetDataHere.
- Added Wx::BufferedDC and Wx::BufferedPaintDC.
- Added wxStdButtonSizer.
- Build out of the box on FreeBSD.
Regards
Mattia

that most of those interfaces are woefully inadequate.
Do your widgets provied Perl interfaces to controls down to
such levels as to override say the drawing level.
I realize you think that anything you add is "more" than
anybody else has but as in java script or html controls
its too far removed from win32 and mfc for the user to
actually do much. I realize theres too much to provide
without blowing up a dll interface to gigantic proportions.
Why do you think your widgets package is of any use whatsoever
in relation to Perl.
Sidenote- its just disgusting how all your efforts are free
and that gives you the right to spam all the Perl groups.
Your not the only ones, the emacs and other spammers think
they have rights also.
If you reply, remember that I've done mfc/windows since it started
in the 16 bit world, et all. You won't pass any bullshit by me.

Subject: CGI::Session install tests fail, can I ignore?
Message-Id: <3ukantF11nl3kU1@individual.net>
I am trying to install CGI::Session on my Slackware Linux system using
cpan. It 'makes all the right noises' but fails some of the tests.
The perl reports as follows:-
Summary of my perl5 (revision 5 version 8 subversion 4) configuration:

Is there anything I can do (upgrade other modules maybe?) to get rid of
these errors, or can I ignore them?

Subject: Passing particular types of params to subroutines
Message-Id: <1132776428.409327@nntp.acecape.com>
Hi All,
Am in the process of breaking down my app into proper modules and have
encountered a problem.
I used to call this to write cookies and redirect:
print $q->redirect(-cookie=>[$cookie_remember,
$cookie_email,
$cookie_session,
$cookie_id],
-uri=>"loggedon.pl");
But now am putting all my CGI stuff into one module, and would like to be
able to call a function and pass it all the cookies I have to write, as well
the new uri value.
My problem is, since the number of cookies can vary, while I do know how to
pass them, am unsuare as to how to recieve them as to properly place them
in [].
Would appreciate any points in the right direction.
Thanks ahead.

If the only thing you need to pass to your module subroutine is a
variable list of cookies (vloc), just pass a vloc (all below untested):
module_just_cookies( $cookie1, $cookie2, $cookie3, ... );
Within the module, they will be stored in the @_ array, whose elements
are aliases to the originals (so don't modify elements of @_, such as
$_[0], unless you want to modify the values in the calling routine):
sub module_just_cookies
{
my @cookies = @_; # copies cookie values into lexical array
...
$q->redirect( -cookie => [ @cookies ], -uri => ... );
}
If you also need to pass a URL, put it first followed by your vloc:
module_redirect_to_url_with_cookies( $url, $cookie1, ... );
In the module:
sub module_redirect_to_url_with_cookies
{
my( $url, @cookies ) = @_;
...
}
If you need to pass more than one array, put the cookies in an array
and pass a reference to the array:
my @cookies = ( $cookie1, $cookie2, ... );
my @urls = ( $url1, $url2 );
module_redirect_with_array_refs( \@urls, \@cookies );
sub module_redirect_with_array_ref
{
my( $url_ref, $cookie_ref ) = @_;
my @urls = @{$url_ref};
my @cookies = @{$cookie_ref};
...
}
HTH.

-untested-
Cookies([$cr1, $ce1, $cs1, $ci1, $uri1],
[$cr2, $ce2, $cs2, $ci2, $uri2],
# ...
);
sub Cookies{
print $q->redirect(-cookie=>[@($_)[0..3]], -uri=>$$_[4]) foreach (@_);
}
That should do it.
