Re^2: How to pass the value of a variable from a child to parent with gui interface?

BrowserUk, Thanks for the pointer. Now looks like the value of $text can successfully be passed to the parent at some point. But somehow this $text is not dynamically changing. I'm expecting $text can be dynamically displayed and that's why I created two infinite loops in both child and parent.

Anyway, thanks again :)

The problem is, this `Win32::GUI::Dialog();` is a loop. It doesn't return until you do something on the dialog. If you click the close button on the dialog a few times, you'll see that the child is indeed running its loop. But until you understand how Win32::GUI works, trying to write multi-threaded apps using it is going to be a frustrating exercise.

BrowserUk, wow, you're right, yes, yes, $text changes when the close button is clicked a couple of times :)	[reply]
