    Gtk2-Perl: An Introduction Gtk2-Perl: An Introduction Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Make Things Pretty Scott Paul Robertson http://spr.mahonri5.net [email protected] May 9, 2007 Gtk2-Perl: An Introduction Background What is Gtk2-Perl? Gtk2-Perl is the set of Perl bindings for Gtk2, and related libraries1. These allow you to code Gtk2 and Gnome applications in Perl. Gtk2-Perl is fairly easy to get started using, but has a few hang ups that can be difficult to discover, or sometimes the documentation is just not there. The developers are aware of the issue, and encourage users to provide documentation, reference guides, or tutorials. 1Glade, Glib, etc Gtk2-Perl: An Introduction Background Online Documentation There are a few major online sources for Gtk2-Perl documentation: ◮ Gtk2-Perl Tutorial - The offical tutorial. ◮ Gtk2-Perl Study Guide - Another excellent tutorial/reference ◮ Introduction to GUI Programming with Gtk2-Perl - As it says, it’s a good introduction to gui programming in general. ◮ Gtk2-Perl Pod Documentation - You might have these as man pages as well, very helpful. Gtk2-Perl: An Introduction Basic Application A Simple Window We’ll start with an example of a simple single button application. First we have to initalize Gtk2: #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Gtk2 ’-init’; use readonly TRUE => 1; use readonly FALSE => 0; ◮ The ’-init’ prepares the Gtk2 environment, otherwise we would have to do it ourselves later. ◮ Defining the constants is very helpful for code readability later. Gtk2-Perl: An Introduction Basic Application A Simple Window Now we set up the window object and a button.

    How to Run POSIX Apps in a Minimal Picoprocess Jon Howell, Bryan Parno, John R. Douceur Microsoft Research, Redmond, WA Abstract Libraries We envision a future where Web, mobile, and desktop Application Function # Examples applications are delivered as isolated, complete software Abiword word processor 63 Pango,Freetype stacks to a minimal, secure client host. This shift imbues Gimp raster graphics 55 Gtk,Gdk Gnucash personal finances 101 Gnome,Enchant app vendors with full autonomy to maintain their apps’ Gnumeric spreadsheet 54 Gtk,Gdk integrity. Achieving this goal requires shifting complex Hyperoid video game 6 svgalib behavior out of the client platform and into the vendors’ Inkscape vector drawing 96 Magick,Gnome isolated apps. We ported rich, interactive POSIX apps, Marble 3D globe 73 KDE, Qt such as Gimp and Inkscape, to a spartan host platform.

Table 1: A variety of rich, functional apps transplanted to run in a minimal native picoprocess. While these 1 Introduction apps are nearly fully functional, plugins that depend on fork() are not yet supported (§3.9). Numerous academic systems [5, 11, 13, 15, 19, 22, 25–28, 31] and deployed systems [1–3, 23] have started pushing towards a world in which Web, mobile, and multaneously [16].
