NAME

Gnome2 - Perl interface to the 2.x series of the GNOME libraries

SYNOPSIS

  use Gnome2;
  Gnome2::Program->init ($appname, $appversion);
  my $app = Gnome2::App->new ($appname);
  $app->show;
  Gtk2->main;

ABSTRACT

Perl bindings to the 2.x series of the GNOME libraries. This module allows you to interface with the libgnome and libgnomeui libraries to create GNOME applications.

DESCRIPTION

Since this module tries to stick very closely to the C API, the documentation found at

  http://developer.gnome.org/libgnome

and

  http://developer.gnome.org/libgnomeui

is the canonical reference.

In addition to that, there's also the automatically generated API documentation: Gnome2::index(3pm).

The mapping described in Gtk2::api(3pm) also applies to this module.

To discuss this module, ask questions and flame/praise the authors, join gtk-perl-list@gnome.org at lists.gnome.org.

MISSING METHODS

Use gnome_app_fill_menu instead.
Use gnome_app_fill_toolbar instead.
Use gnome_app_create_menus instead.
Use gnome_app_create_toolbar instead.
Use gnome_app_insert_menus instead.

RENAMED METHODS

Gnome2::Program->get has been renamed to ->get_program to avoid a clash with GObject->get.
Gtk2::Menu->attach has been renamed to ->attach_to to avoid a clash with gtk_menu_attach.
Gtk2::Menu->append has been renamed to ->append_from to avoid a clash with gtk_menu_shell_append.

DIFFERENT CALL SIGNATURES OR SEMANTICS

Instead of argc and argv you simply pass in a list.
Gnome2::Program->init automagically fills argc and argv so just omit these parameters.

AUTHOR

muppet <scott at asofyet dot org> did the initial stuff.

Torsten Schoenfeld <kaffeetisch at gmx dot de> took over between 0.34 and 0.36, and implemented lots of tests and missing functionality, and corrected several of muppet's mistakes.
