Subj : ANNOUNCE: New Tk::ObjScanner can view pseudo hashes To : All From : Dominique Dumont Date : Fri Jan 12 2001 07:24 am From: Dominique Dumont Hello Tk::ObjScanner provides a GUI to scan perl data including the attributes of an object. Starting from version 1.020: - pseudo hashes are also correctly viewed. - a demo is installed so Tk's widget demo will feature ObjScanner The scanner is a composite widget made of a HList and a text window (actually a TK::ROText). This widget acts as a scanner to the object (or hash ref) passed with the 'caller' parameter. The scanner will retrieve all keys of the hash/object and insert them in the HList. When the user double clicks on a key, the corresponding value will be added in the HList. If the value is a scalar, the scalar will be displayed in the text window. (Which is handy if the value is a multi-line string) This module was written with perl5.6.0 and Tk 800.022 See the embedded documentation in the module for more details. Note that test program (in the 't' directory) can be run interactively this way : perl t/xxx.t 1 Comments and suggestions are always welcome. Many thanks to Achim Bohnet for all the tests, patches (and reports) he made. Many improvements were made thanks to his efforts. Thanks to Rudi Farkas for the 'watch' patch. Thanks to Slavec Rezic for the pseudo-hash prototype. Share and enjoy. -- Dominique_Dumont@grenoble.hp.com --- BBBS/LiI v4.01 Flag-2 * Origin: Prism bbs (1:2320/38) .
