yes, this is sure. by default the old style is used, the problem is when you don't use it and put an -events option on something. maybe I should process -events options *only* if you said: use Win32::GUI Event_Model => 'byref'; otherwise they're simply ignored. > I would probably do something simular to the way XML::SAX::* works and > do this > > [...] > > -events => { > Terminate => $gui->myhandler(); not quite... should be something like: Terminate => \&{ $gui->myhandler }; arguments to -events can be: - a subroutine name (string) - a reference (eg. \&) - an anonymous sub (eg. sub { .. }) BTW, I didn't understand the use of My::Package ... but maybe it's just me. > Now, the question is, how does it work to pass in stuff such as the > listview passing the row clicked? or do we have to handle all that > ourselves? If this is covered in the docs(are the docs more fleshed > out?), let me know and I will check there. ops, sorry, I forgot to mention this :-) for your joy (and many other's too), all NEM events pass the object they're referring to as their first argument, while subsequent arguments are the same as their non-NEM counterparts. so you can do this: $Window->AddButton( # ... -name => "Button1", -onClick => sub { my($self) = @_; print "you clicked button: $self->{-name}\n"; }, ); and this will print out: you clicked button: Button1 an ItemClick event for a ListView would look like: -onItemClick => sub { my($self, $item) = @_; # do something with $item }, > Sorry to be a pain, but i am so excited to check this out and have a > few questions on gotchas I have ran into in the past before migrating. don't worry, this kind of pain is welcome :-) cheers, Aldo __END__ $_=q,just perl,,s, , another ,,s,$, hacker,,print;
