Re: Creating Gtk2 and/or Gnome2 interfaces for Perl with Glade or Glade-2

to be honest i'm not exactly sure what you're asking. but here's an attempt at
answering...

for a quick and dirty example of using Gtk2::GladeXML see the file under the
Glade/t/ directory called 0.GladeXML.t and it's associated glade file
example.glade.

using glade-2 you can save the ui you create, which is where example.glade
comes from. it's an xml file that describes the user interface and its
actions/events. libglade's input format is the save file format of glade-2.
(xml, etc.)

as of right now Gtk2::GladeXML is pretty alpha. it has been reported to work
and i've been able to play with it a little. i don't know enough about
libglade/GladeXML to go much further with it. it is highly based off of the
old GladeXML stuff from gtk-perl (so if you've used it you should be pretty
familiar with this incarnation.) hopefully in the not too distant future i'll
be able to put a little time into cleaning up the dir and pod doc'ing what is
currently there so that a release can be made. to be honest it won't go much
further than that until someone much more familiar with related topics takes a
look at it and fleshes the rest out. the main thing that is missing is the
implementation of custom widgets.

sorry, if this didn't answer your question.
