Re: Does Gtk2::XML exist?

["Ross McFarland" <rwmcfa1 neces com>]

i think what you're looking for is GladeXML. if you check out gtk2-perl-xs
with cvs from sourceforge you'll get what i've done on it thus far. it seems
to work. there's some issuse with custom widgets i haven't worked out b/c i
don't have example custom widgets and uses of those examples to work on/with.
much like Gnome2's bindings it will probably stagnate until someone desires to
pick it up and run with it. i don't know enough about libglade (xml) to finish
out the deatils.

if you don't do anything too fancy then what's there will probably work for
you. as always report bugs and problems you find. if we don't know they exist
we can't fix them...
