Hello IB2017,

this is covered in the Tk::callbacks basically you can pass any arguments you want as in: -dropcommand => [\&accept_drop, $drop, $another, $more] and they arrive in the sub accept_drop in @_ as always.

The same can be accomplished with:

[ \&subname, arg1, arg2, ..] # or [ sub { ... },arg1, arg2, ..]

Note the [..] around sub and args: if more than one element is passed Tk will expect an anonymous array with the code reference as first element and arguments following.

Also note that the contents of the [..] are evaluated by perl when the callback is created.

PS see it in action:

perl -MTk -e "tkinit->Button(-text=>'print',-command=>[sub{print join'-',@_},1, 2,3])->pack;MainLoop"

L*

There are no rules, there are no thumbs..
Reinvent the wheel, then learn The Wheel; may be one day you reinvent one of THE WHEELS.

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.
