UI::Dialog::Gauged(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation UI::Dialog::Gauged(3pm)
NAME
UI::Dialog::Gauged
SYNOPSIS
use UI::Dialog::Gauged;
my $d = new UI::Dialog::Gauged ( title => 'Default title',
height => 20, width => 65 ,
listheight => 5,
order => [ 'zenity', 'xdialog' ] );
# Either a Zenity or Xdialog msgbox widget should popup,
# with a preference for Zenity.
$d->msgbox( title => 'Welcome!', text => 'Welcome one and all!' );
ABSTRACT
UI::Dialog::Gauged is simply another meta-class for UI::Dialog. This class simply has a different order of priority than UI::Dialog and
only uses backends that support a standard set of gauge related functions.
DESCRIPTION
This class is simply a nice way to try and ensure a GNOME based widget set.
EXPORT
None
INHERITS
UI::Dialog
CONSTRUCTOR
new( @options )
EXAMPLE
my $d = new( title => 'Default Title', backtitle => 'Backtitle',
width => 65, height => 20, listheight => 5,
order => [ 'zenity', 'xdialog' ] );
DESCRIPTION
This is the Class Constructor method. It accepts a list of key => value pairs and uses them as the defaults when interacting with
the various widgets.
RETURNS
A blessed object reference of the UI::Dialog::Gauged class.
OPTIONS
The (...)'s after each option indicate the default for the option.
debug = 0,1,2(0)
order = [ zenity, xdialog, cdialog, whiptail ] (as indicated)
PATH = [ /bin, /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin, /opt/bin ] (as indicated)
backtitle = "backtitle" ('')
title = "title" ('')
beepbefore = 0,1(0)
beepafter = 0,1(0)
height = d+(20)
width = d+(65)
listheight = d+(5)
WIDGET METHODS
gauge_start( )
EXAMPLE
$d->gauge_start( text => 'gauge...', percentage => 1 );
DESCRIPTION
Display a meter bar to the user. This get's the widget realized but requires the use of the other gauge_*() methods for function-
ality.
RETURNS
TRUE(1) if the widget loaded fine and FALSE(0) for anything else.
gauge_inc( )
EXAMPLE
$d->gauge_inc( 1 );
DESCRIPTION
Increment the meter by the given amount.
RETURNS
TRUE(1) if the widget incremented fine and FALSE(0) for anything else.
gauge_set( )
EXAMPLE
$d->gauge_set( 99 );
DESCRIPTION
Set the meter bar to the given amount.
RETURNS
TRUE(1) if the widget set fine and FALSE(0) for anything else.
gauge_text( )
EXAMPLE
$d->gauge_text( 'string' );
DESCRIPTION
Set the meter bar message to the given string.
RETURNS
TRUE(1) if the widget set fine and FALSE(0) for anything else.
gauge_stop( )
EXAMPLE
$d->gauge_stop();
DESCRIPTION
End the meter bar widget process. One of the flaws with gdialog is that the gauge widget does not close properly and requies the
end user to close the gauge window when 100% has been reached. This is the second reason why I'm glad gdialog is going the way of
the dodo.
RETURNS
TRUE(1) if the widget closed fine and FALSE(0) for anything else.
