Re: Re:[wxperl-users] wxFTP and progress information

[Huub P. <hu...@tr...>]

Here we go..

I attached a working example that uses Net::FTP with a nice progress bar,
without the need of using threads.
The GUI is generated with wxGlade (can send the sourcefile to on request)
and I tried to document my code a bit so I hope it's clear enough ;-)

The whole thing can be extended with loads of other functions but this is
just
to show a working progress bar when uploading a single file.
One could easily alter it to use a wxProgressDialog that gives a nice Cancel
function.

Bear in mind I tested and created this on Win32 but I can't see anything why
it shouldn't work on any other platform.

Always curious for some feedback!

Regards,

Huub Peters.

I created that functionality using Net::FTP in one of my apps a while ago.
I'll extract the necessary code today and post a working example.
Please be patient for a few hours :-)

Huub Peters.

  No, and it will not (by me). LWP or Net::FTP or any other
Perl module for handling FTP is surely far superior to
wxFTP.

  It all depends from the module, of corse.

  I do not know if anybody has written a multi threaded
application with wxPerl. I think using two threads is the
best approach.
