I'm trying to use an XML file to hold the properties
of the windows in my Perl script. (No major reason
for this, I just throught it would be a cool way to
learn how to use XML with Perl)
However, it seems that if I store the window style in
a variable, and try to use the variable to set the
window style, no style is applied to the window when
it is created. If I hard code the window style, then
it appears correctly.
Here is the basic layout of the XML file:
<windows>
<window type="Window Name">
<property type="name" value="Window Name"/>
<property type="icon" value="Icon"/>
<property type="version" value="Version Number"/>
<property type="modified" value="Modified Date"/>
<property type="title" value="Window Title"/>
<property type="style" value="Window Styles"/>
<property type="left" value="300"/>
<property type="top" value="200"/>
<property type="width" value="350"/>
<property type="height" value="250"/>
</window>
</windows>
The value for the Window Styles would be:
"WS_CAPTION | WS_SYSMENU" (or something similar).
$WindowHandle = new GUI::DialogBox (
-name => $Hash{name},
-title => $Hash{title},
-style => $Hash{style}, # No style is applied
-style => WS_CAPTION | WS_SYSMENU, # Works fine
-left => $Hash{left},
-top => $Hash{top},
-width => $Hash{width},
-height => $Hash{height},
);
Is this something that just cannot be done? Or do I
need to do something differently? Does anyone have
any suggestions?
Thanks for your help,
Jeremy Blonde
