Re: ActivePerl Gtk2::Helper Hangs

I think the problem is in the Gtk2::Helper->add_watch

For me (on Windows), when I run your script, there's no problem until the Gtk2->main(); is executed (at the last line of your script).

I don't know if that rules out the possibility that the problem is where you said it is ...

Cheers,
Rob

I don't know if that rules out the possibility that the problem is where you said it is ... Aaaah ... hang on ... in the Glib-1.301/t/9.t test script we find: `} elsif ($^O eq "MSWin32") { print "ok 12 # skip add_watch on win32\n"; print "ok 13 # skip add_watch on win32\n"; print "ok 14 # skip add_watch on win32\n"; }` [download] This would suggest that add_watch() doesn't work on Windows, and you need to replace it with other code. The Gtk2 developers probably have a good idea of what's needed, if no-one here comes forward with a solution. Cheers, Rob	[reply] [d/l]
