Re: [wxperl-users] undefined symbols -- more fun with the mac

[Mark D. <mar...@zn...>]

Eric,

Take a look at the source for Wx::Perl::Packager on CPAN. Its pure perl
so you should be able to just download and browse.

For any kind of bundling of Wx, you have to tell Wx where it can load
the none core libraries from. Wx has some hooks (via Wx::Mini) that
allow you to do this.

Wx::Perl::Packager does this for PDK and PAR and works (at least to a
basic tested level) for those packaging methods on both Win32 and Linux.

I have access to a 10.3 Mac so if you leave

http://scratchcomputing.com/svn/Module-Build-Plugins-MacBundle/trunk/

I'll use this to see if I can make the necessary changes to
Wx::Perl::Packager so it can help with an appbundle on the Mac. I
probably won't get to this before the weekend though so if you take a
look at what Wx::Perl::Packager does, you might be able to solve the
problem before then.

Of course, I'm making the assumption that this is really the same problem.

Regards

Mark
