I'm trying to convert a Perl/Tk script to Perl/Tkx and I'm not sure how DND works in Tkx. Can someone please advise me on how to do that? I created a simple Perl/Tk script (below) and was wondering if someone could convert it to Tkx. Thank you in advance. David
use strict; use Tk; use Tk::Pane; my $textVariable = "my text"; my $mw = MainWindow->new; my $frame = $mw->Frame()->pack(-side => 'top', -expand => 1, -fill => +'x'); $frame->Label(-text => "My Label", -anchor => 'w', -width => 10)->pack(-ipady => 1, -side => 'left'); my $entry = $frame->Entry(-textvariable => \$textVariable, -width => 40)->pack(-side => 'left'); $frame->DropSite(-dropcommand => [\&AcceptDrop, $frame], -droptypes => ('Win32')); MainLoop; sub AcceptDrop { my ($widget, $selection) = @_; my $filename; $filename = $widget->SelectionGet(-selection => $selection, 'STRIN +G'); $textVariable = $filename; }
