Category: Installation >Group: Future Status: Open Resolution: None >Priority: 5 Submitted By: Jeff Squyres (jsquyres) Assigned to: Terry Fleury (tfleury) Summary: No wizard GUI updates during opd/selector Initial Comment: When either the GUI OPD or the selector are running (i.e., the first two buttons on the OSCAR wizard), the main OSCAR wizard GUI does not get updated. For example, if you hide the wizard and then bring it back, it's blank until OPD/selector finishes. This is different than most (all?) other sub-windows in the wizard; although the main window gets marked "busy" (i.e., you can't push other buttons), GUI updates still occur so that things like hide/unhide still show the main wizard window and its contents. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Terry Fleury (tfleury) Date: 2003-07-15 13:09 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=116599 The problem is that the old oscar_wizard GUI stuff is based on Perl-Tk, while the new Opder and Selector are based on Perl-Qt. When you click on step 0 or 1, the appropriate Perl script is run (as if invoked from the command line). So the oscar_wizard waits for the Opder or Selector to return from execution. Even if we were to call the Opder/Selector via a subroutine, there would be problems since Tk/Qt each have their own even loop. The only real solution is to reimplement the entire oscar_wizard in Perl-Qt. This should happen in the next version. For now, we'll just have to live with the oscar_wizard not updating during Opder/Selector execution. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=109368&aid=769761&group_id=9368 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing & more.
