I've tried on both 5.8 and 5.6 (with PAR-0.66) - same result.
Did you actually *build* the executable on the *windows* box ? Or is it
simply that the executable built on the linux box runs on the windows box ?
(I've just re-read your post - I gather the answer to the first question is
"yes" :-)
Other than that, it could be the version of Tk we are running. Mine is
800.024 on 5.8, and 800.023 on 5.6.
What's yours ?
If it's not that ..... I dunno where we go....
I'd be interested to learn what '$name' in sub AUTOLOAD contains for you,
both when the perl script runs and the executable runs. If it's a hassle to
edit TK/Widget.pm and re-build the executable, then please don't bother :-)
Cheers,
Rob
