Gtk2-perl

GTK2-Perl is a set of Perl wrappers for the GTK+ GUI library and the other GNOME platform libraries. GTK2-Perl is free software and licensed under the LGPL. Developers and interested parties can usually be found on the IRC channel #gtk-perl on irc.gnome.org.

GTK2-Perl is part of the official GNOME Platform Bindings release [ [http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointFifteen/Bindings TwoPointFifteen/Bindings - GNOME Live! ] ] , along with C++ bindings, Python bindings and Java bindings.

Example

use Gtk2 '-init';

$window = Gtk2::Window->new('toplevel');$window->set_title("Hello World!");

$button = Gtk2::Button->new("Press me");$button->signal_connect(clicked => sub { print "Hello again - the button was pressed "; });

$window->add($button);$window->show_all;

Gtk2->main;

0;

The sample program creates a GTK+ Window titled "Hello World!". The window contains a Button labelled "Press me." When the button is pressed, the message "Hello again - the button was pressed" is displayed on the console via the callback inside the anonymous subroutine connected to the "clicked" signal.
