in thread citrus perl generated .exe and Perlapp

Just to help anyone else out who banged their head against the wall for days and days, here is what i did to get it working:

For anyone trying to get wxperl working, I used Active State perl (latest 32bit, reason being i can develope 32 bit applications that run on 32 bit and 64 bit systems). Then in ppm I added this repository: http://www.wxperl.co.uk/repository/package.xml
Then I installed Wx from Mattia Barbon, and that downloaded alien wxwidgets aswell. Then if your using WxGlade... you may need to change:

use Wx 0.15 qw[:allclasses];
to
use Wx;.

Doing this will let you create an executable with Perlapp.
If you get an error message after running the app.exe about not being able to set locale to "en", then open your app.pl script and find Wx::Locale->new("English", "en", "en"); and delete both instances of "en".
When you create an executable out of the script with Perlapp, you may need to manually add modules. Also do not forget to "Hide Console" under options 2 tab in perlapp :P

    Without involving citrusperl at all, right?

      yes no citrus perl at all, and gui works fine
        OP, does your method make an EXE for 64-bit Win 8 command windows?

        For simple tasks, I'm partial to command line Perl programs still, that I want to turn into EXE files.

        Perl 5.8.8 on Redhat Linux RHEL 5.5.56 (64-bit)
