It depends on what you are doing, but in most cases, I can't see why you wouldn't be using Win32::GUI::Dialog() anyway.

Here is the above code modified to use Win32::GUI::Dialog():

use strict;
use Win32::GUI ();

$|=1;

my $window = Win32::GUI::Window->new();
my $menu   = new Win32::GUI::Menu(
    "mymenu" => "mymenu",
    " > foo"    => "foo",
    " > bar"    => { -name => 'bar', -onClick => \&bar_onclickcallback
+ },
);

print "Start Tracking\n";
$window->TrackPopupMenu($menu->{mymenu}, 20,20);

Win32::GUI::Dialog();  # enter Dialog() here

print "Done Tracking, if it didn't print 'GOTCHA ...' then no callback
+?\n";

sub bar_onclickcallback
{
    print "GOTCHA bar\n";
    return -1;  # return -1 here to exit from dialog loop
}

sub foo_Click
{
    print "GOTCHA foo\n";
    return -1;  # return -1 here to exit from dialog loop
}
