RE: [perl-win32-gui-users] version 0558 installation - undefined macro

[Piske, H. <Har...@bo...>]

Guys - or GUIs ;-)

Xqs me for being square, but if we discuss everything under "Timer memory
leak", we are giving ourselves a hard time down the road when we try to find
a solution in the sourceforge archive. Especially since the search function
of the archive is not exactly very successful in retrieving what you're
looking for :-(

Anyway, Peter, I'm sorry to inform you that my Perl 5.6.0 with GUI 0558 does
not complain about an undefined macro. I remember seing that error when I
had the famous GUI version 0.99, which was actually something like 0.0.0460
or so. But I do hope you're over the version issue by now ;-)

I could imagine something wrong with the $Window to begin with. If the
$Window->AddCombobox call fails, it returns undef and a subsequent
$Window->Category would have to fail. However, since I can use your code
snippet ... do you have Category defined somewhere? Because you did not put
the name in quotes, maybe Perl tries to call a sub of that name and take
it's return value as name for your Combobox? Just guessing.

Have fun,
Harald

| The zip thing worked!!! That's terrific except that scripts 
| that used to
| work no longer do. Bummer. I get this kind of an error:
| 
| "Your vendor has not defined Win32::GUI macro Category, used 
| at..." (see
| below snippet)
| 
| What's this about a macro? I get what it means but can 
| someone point me
| towards which doc describes this change in functionality? In 
| 0.0.558 do I
| need to declare these "macros" or something? Here's a snippet 
| of what it is
| complaining about (works with 0.0.502):
| 
| ######
| $Window->AddCombobox( 
| 	-name   => Category,
| 	-left   => 105, 
| 	-top    => 5,
| 	-width  => 45, 
| 	-height => 100,
| 	-style  => WS_VISIBLE | 2 | WS_VSCROLL | WS_HSCROLL |
| ES_AUTOHSCROLL,
| 	-tabstop => 1,
| );
| 
| $Window->Category->InsertItem("");
| foreach (@category)
| {
| 	chomp($_);
| 	$Window->Category->InsertItem("$_");
| }
| 
| #####

| 
| THanks for everyone's help.
