Glade is fairly straight forward, you just feed the resulting XML file from the builder to its setup and wahlah instant gui. So really, all you need to install is Gtk2::GladeXML and hope the deps compile in cygwin or however you are compiling the XS. Make sure the header files are installed for that gladewin32 (ie, the development environment installer)
Of course, whatever that entails (ie, if you use Gnome widgets, what does that ultimately mean for a win32 environment?), is left an exercise to the reader. I do want to second Whitney's suggestion to do the gui another way. Doing Gtk development in win32 land is (or at least it once was) painful to do. XUL might be a better option since it is fairly well supported because of firefox. Then again, there are a handful of successful GTK2 apps that build and run on win32 just fine (gaim being a prime example). This is going to probably be poo-poo'ed on, but have you considered developing the app in C# and using Winforms? If the target platform is windows use the tools that come native, you know? If you are scared to go full throttle into MSland, then use Mono and Gtk# (heck even Winforms since their support is pretty damn good at this point) and that way your app is portable with a minimal amount of fuss. If your heart isn't set on POE + GTK2, I would at least consider the tools native to the platform. HTH On 3/28/07, Matt Sickler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
okay, heres the story I am developing a messenger app for my school (win32), currently I am using POE + Tk Then I wanted a GUI GUI-maker. someone pointed me to Glade (which is Gtk, Glib, etc) i found http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net which installed glib, glade, gtk, etc or whatever, and now I am trying to install the necessary Perl modules just wondering if anyone has any pointers or if you want me to paste the specific CPAN.pm log I can
