Not to be picky about it, but don't even use sleep to demonstrate a slowdown..... in a GUI it completely gives you bad behavior.

Here is one way to make a non-blocking delay without sleep

#!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use Tk; $|=1; my $count = 0; my $loop = 0; my $mw = new MainWindow(); $mw->Label( -textvariable => \$count )->pack; $mw->Button( -text => 'Start', -command => \&long_job ) ->pack( -side => 'left' ); $mw->Button( -text => 'Stop', -command => sub { $loop = 0; print "$cou +nt\n"; } ) ->pack( -side => 'left' ); MainLoop(); sub long_job { my $var; my $timer = $mw->repeat(1000, sub{$var++} ); $loop =1; while($loop){ $loop++; $mw->waitVariable(\$var); $count++; } DoOneEvent(); }

I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
