Re^2: Perl Gtk2 - ->destroy() is Not Causing the Script to Exit

Anyone else think that's strange...?

Nope, not really :)

why I am getting that

because of the way you write code :) write it like this ( cope with scoping , avoid closures, don't create objects you don't need, don't destroy objects while closureing over them, don't run mainloops for modal dialogs ... so you don't get order of destruction weirdness related messages )

#!/usr/bin/perl --
use strict; use warnings;
use Gtk2 -init;
use Glib qw/TRUE FALSE/;
mme( @ARGV ) for 1 .. 2;
sub mme {
    my $msg_dialog = Gtk2::MessageDialog->new_with_markup(
        undef,
        'modal',
        'error',
        'yes-no',
        "Would you like to retry the connection?",
    );
    $msg_dialog->set_title("No Connection Found");
    $msg_dialog->set_destroy_with_parent(TRUE);
    $msg_dialog->signal_connect ( response => \&shimmy, );
    printf "runned %s\n", $msg_dialog->run();
}
sub shimmy {
    my ($self, $response) = @_;
    print "$self $response\n";
}
__END__
Gtk2::MessageDialog=HASH(0xc6e674) yes
runned yes
Gtk2::MessageDialog=HASH(0xb33d24) no
