Creating Tkx based GUI applications with activeperl and perlapp should work out-of-the box without any need for any special options. Upgrading the Tcl.pm module from CPAN (or via ppm) might give you a version without our patches to pick up the tkkit.dll we bundle with ActivePerl, so that might be one source of errors.
I'm not really sure what workarounds are needed to bundle and use tcl85.dll from ActiveTcl. If you use later versions of ActivePerl they should already come with a 8.5 based tkkit. --Gisle On Dec 9, 2008, at 23:31 , [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > All, > I'm doing my first tests with Tkx.
