Hi there.
I hope you can help me. There's an extremely simple thing I just can't understand: How can I get the value typed by a user in an Entry widget???
I've tried a very simple program that should take the user entry and put it into a file, so the code snippets would look like this:
#This creates the widget and place it:
my $Entry2 = $mw->Entry(
-relief => "sunken"
);
$Entry2->place( -x => 88, -y => 33, -height => 16, -width => 120);
# And I have a button that calls the sub that does the trick:
my $Button3 = $mw->Button(
-text => "Cadastrar",
-relief => "raised",
-command => \&add
);
$Button3->place( -x => 218, -y => 33, -height => 16, -width => 56);
# The above parts works as expected, my problem lies below (notice tha
+t the snippet below is, obviously, after the MainLoop):
sub add
{
my $name = $Entry2->get(0.1, 'end');
my $file = "data.dat";
open(CLIST, "+>>$file");
flock(CLIST,2);
print CLIST $name."\n";
flock(CLIST,8);
close($file);
}
I just can't capture the Entry value. Please help me.
Thanks in advance,
my
($author_nickname, $author_email) = ("DaWolf","erabbott\@terra.com.br")
if ($author_name eq "Er
Galvão Abbott");

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
