Hello....

I have installed camelbox with out installing Perl 5.10 base package
using "Blotware" install type.I already have a Active Perl 5.10
installed in my system.My Perl installation is in F:\Perl\ directory.
Aftre installing camelbox,i checked the FAQ troublw shootting
samples..like Perl_Swiss_Army_Knife.pl..It works..But when i go for "C:
\Camelbox\examples\gyroscope.pl" it produce an error like below

Can't load 'F:/Perl/site/lib/auto/Glib/Glib.dll' for module Glib:
load_file:The specified procedure could not be found at F:/Perl/lib/
DynaLoader.pm....

I create a sample glade file and compiled it in Komodo IDE,but the
same error occurs...GLIB...
So i cant work in GTK..glade..etc..

What can i do to solve the problem...I am new to camelbox..i just
installed it..i dont know if there any configuration settings,or any

Camelbox is not meant to be used with ActiveState. Use either one
Perl or the other; the only things that you can reuse in ActiveState
from Camelbox without a lot of effort on your part would be the C
libraries (*.dll files) for things like GTK/PostgreSQL/MySQL/etc.

Since ActiveState's perl.exe doesn't know anything about Camelbox
(which would include the GTK libraries that come with Camelbox), this
is why you're seeing the error above.

The only way to run scripts using Camelbox when ActiveState is
installed is to write a wrapper batch file which sets up the
environment for Camelbox, including calling the Perl binary from
Camelbox; this is because ActiveState associates the *.pl extension
with it's Perl. Or you can uninstall ActiveState. Your choice.

Hello...Brian

Thnk u for ur support and help..

I uninstalled Active Perl 5 and installed Camel Box's buit in Perl 5..
Now i checked the Gyroscope.pl in the camelbox's examples folder..Its
working smoothly..
After that i checked the Glade fiels in camelbox\examples\Gtk2-GladeXML
\..happy now..it also working nice...But There is a problem while
opening my own .glade file in Komodo IDE..The error description is
like below...

(perl.exe:980): libglade-WARNING **: Expected <glade-interface>. Got

I know nothing about the Komodo IDE. All I can help you with is
problems with Camelbox; more on this in a second...

This will be hard for us to diagnose without seeing your source code,
no?

Can you paste the sourcecode to someplace like pastebin.com so we can
take a look?

Thanks,

Sorry, if you sent a link to source code, it did not come through.

We won't be able to help you until we see the source of your program,
and try to run it ourselves.

Thanks,

It doesn't matter what version of Glade you use, as long as it
generates valid Glade XML for the glade library versions that come
with Camelbox. If you're unsure as to what version of the Glade
libraries comes with Camelbox, you can check the _versions.txt
document in your Camelbox distribution at
"C:\camelbox\share\pkglists\_version_list.txt".

I was able to get your script running after I modified your
'Sample.glade' file. Your Glade XML does not set the 'visible'
property for the GtkWindow 'main'. You might want to set this
property when you're using the Glade editor, no matter which version
of the editor you are using. You can see my changes in [1].

I suggest running and then examining the examples that come with
Camelbox if you run into problems in the future. The reasons I make
this suggestion are...

1) If you can run the example, you know Camelbox (and by extension
Gtk2::GladeXML) is working
2) You can use the examples you just verified as working as a template
for your scripts, since you know the examples are working for you.
This is how I figured out that you were not setting the 'visible'
property for the 'main' window, I used the examples to see what
properties you were missing where in your Sample.glade file.

I was not able to duplicate your original error about interface/glade-interface.

Thanks,

Brian

Your problems were with using Gtk2::GladeXML, Camelbox was not the
issue. You might find better support for Gtk2-Perl issues on the
gtk2-perl mailing list [1]. That list is certainly read more often by
more people.

I thought I was having the same problem because I had the same
situation: ActiveState 5.10 installed. So I uninstalled both
ActiveState and Camelbox, then reinstalled Camelbox from scratch. But
I'm still getting the same error.

If I run "perl C:\camelbox\examples\gyroscope.pl" from a Command
Prompt window I get

Can't load 'C:/camelbox/site/lib/auto/Glib/Glib.dll' for module Glib:
load_file: The specified procedure could not be found at C:/camelbox/
lib/DynaLoader.pm line 203. at gyroscope.pl line 16.

In addition, I get an error popup which says:

Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point g_ascii_strtoll could not be located in the
dynamic link library libglib-2.0.0.dll.


Here are the line references:

gyroscope.pl line 16: use Glib qw(TRUE FALSE);

Dynaloader.pm line 203: my $libref = dl_load_file($file, $module-
>dl_load_flags) or croak("Can't load '$file' for module $module:
".dl_error());

Any ideas??

Sure. Have you read the FAQ [1] lately? Most likely, you're having
the problem described under the section labeled "Check the support
libraries (Gtk/Glib/Pango/Cairo)".

Can you read that section please and see if it fixes your issue?

You can get more info on the particulars of why people have %PATH%
issues in issue #4 in the Issue tracker [2]. I just added the bit
about other programs that use GTK and friends on Windows to the FAQ.

Thanks,

Brian

I found the fix. In my PATH there was an old environment variable for
QTK. I got rid of it and gyroscope.pl worked.
