wxPerl, Mac OS X, and perlapp

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello fellow monks,

I have a relatively simple wxPerl app that I'm trying to compile on Mac OS X 10.4.8 using Active States perlapp (version 7.2). I know wxPerl scripts need to be run using the wxPerl wrapper so I'm assuming the perlapp needs to point to this wrapper also correct? I can run the script via the wrapper from a term window with success. I'm using perl 5.8 build 822.

Any ideas or documentation I might look at?
Thanks

Have you taken a look at Wx::Perl::Packager? I have only used it with PAR, not PerlApp, but in my experience it makes packaging wxPerl programs dead simple. -- David Irving	[reply]

Thanks for posting that, beryan; I didn't know about PerlWrapper before. I've been struggling with a similar problem and it looks like PerlWrapper could be extremely useful for my purposes as well. Cool.	[reply]
