DESCRIPTION
GUIDeFATE enables the user to convert a textual representtaion into a Graphical user Interfac. It attempts to abstract out the underlying framework. A visually recognisable pattern is passed as a string to GUIDeFATE and this is transformed into an Interactive Interface.
METHODS
Creation
- my $gui=GUIDeFATE->new($window, $backend, $options);
-
Extracts dimensions and wdigets in a window from the textual representation. If $options not pprovided, defaults to "Wx"; options are Wx and Tk. If $options contains "v", then a verbose output is sent to console, if it contains "a", and autogenerated file is produced with all the called functions
- my $frame=$gui->getFrame;
-
Returns reference to the frame for both abstracted and backend specific functions.
