Features:
- image attribute for Button and ToggleButton; set a
filename here to put an arbitrary image on a button
Bugfixes:
- Applied patches from Jeff Hallock fixing a bunch of
"Use of uninitialized value" warnings. As well Jeff
fixed a bug which renders empty "getter" prefixes
unusable.
- build() Method now prevents building a Factory twice
by itself.
- Container->add_child_widget() missed registering
children to the Form Factory.
- Widget activity tracking called active check callback
without an object reference if no object was currently
set instead of rendering the widget inactive in that case.
The Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory framework is for Perl Gtk2 developers who
(at least partially ;) agree with these statements:
* GUI programming is fun but often boring.
* A lot of tasks in GUI programming are similar and misleads the lazy
programmer to do too much Copy'n Paste.
* RAD tools like Glade are fine for small applications but not if you
want to have a consistent look and feel in bigger and modular
applications.
Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory tries to help you with these issues by:
* Strictly separating GUI design, application logic and data structures.
* Giving the developer a more declarative style of defining the structure of
your GUI.
* Giving the developer the possibility of definiting the design of the GUI
at a single spot in your program.
* Being lightweight and easy to learn.
