When I exit (either using the button or using the X in the top right) I get a 1 printed but no dialog box. The documentation for OnDestroy saysuse strict; use warnings; use Tk; use Tk::DialogBox; my $mw = MainWindow->new(); $mw->OnDestroy(\&exit_app); $mw->Button(-text => 'Exit', -command=> sub {$mw->destroy})->pack(-sid +e=>'right', -ipadx => 10, -padx=>30); MainLoop; sub exit_app{ print "1"; my $db = $mw->DialogBox(-title => 'Error',-buttons => ['CSV',' +Abandon']); $db->Label(-text => "Do you wish to save a new CSV file or aba +ndon changes?")->pack(); my $button = $db->Show(); if ($button eq 'CSV'){ save_csv(); } } sub save_csv{ return 1; }
OnDestroy accepts a standard perl/Tk callback. When the window associated with $widget is destroyed then the callback is invoked. Unlike $widget->('<Destroy>',...) the widgets methods are still available when callback is executed, so (for example) a Text widget can save its contents to a file.This doesn't seem to be the case here, the DialogBox is not created. I am aware that I could remove $mw->OnDestroy() and call exit_app() directly from the button and then do $mw->destroy() at the end of the sub. However I then need to be able to disable (or preferably trap) the use of the X button. Any ideas?
