ANNOUNCE: Glade-Perl 0.59

[Dermot Musgrove <dermot glade perl connectfree co uk>]

Hi all,

This is especially for all perl 5.6 users - I am sorry if you had
problems with a missing DESTROY() sub.

I have just uploaded perl module Glade-Perl-0.59.tar.gz to CPAN
    ftp://ftp.cpan.org/CPAN/modules/by-module/Glade/ but please
your local mirror (see ftp://ftp.cpan.org/pub/perl/CPAN/MIRRORED.BY)

Until it is mirrored around the world it is available on my website.
    http://www.glade.perl.connectfree.co.uk/index.html
   
Glade-Perl generates perl source code from a Glade file - Glade is Damon
Chaplin's beautiful Gtk+/Gnome UI builder. 

Glade-Perl can display the UI as it is built and/or generate source code 
and it can be called directly from Glade's 'Build' button. It can also
generate code to use libglade if you prefer.

Regards, Dermot

  - Version 0.59
  - All modules now have empty DESTROY() sub as perl 5.6 demands.
    PerlRun->AUTOLOAD() also caters for (ignores) AUTOLOADED DESTROY() call.
    PerlRun perldoc corrected to lose warnings in pod2man.
    Thanks to Jim Edwards for the super-fast reports and patches.
  - PerlRun->lookup_widget() is a new method that accesses a window or a
    form's widget by name. It prints an error if the widget does not exist.
    e.g. my $widget = $window->lookup_widget('clist1');
      OR my $form = $window->FORM; # or use $form in signal handlers
         my $widget = $form->lookup_widget('clist1');
  - Glade-Perl will now create skeleton documentation files if they
    do not already exist. These default to directory 'Documentation' files
    called COPYING, Changelog, FAQ, INSTALL, NEWS, README, ROADMAP and TODO
    If you don't want to generate the doc files add a line to site or
    project options file:
      <doc><write>0</write></doc>
  - Glade-Perl will now create skeleton distribution files if they
    do not already exist. These default to - Makefile.PL, MANIFEST.SKIP, 
    Project.spec and test.pl - so you should be able to call:
    'perl Makefile.PL; make manifest; make dist;' and then either
    'rpm -ta Project-0.01.tar.gz' to build a RPM or the normal perl methods
    of 'make test' and 'make install'. This is all at a very early stage and 
    will probably fail in many cases but you should, at least, have some 
    files to edit :)
    If you don't want to generate the dist files add a line to site or 
    project options file:
      <dist><write>0</write></dist>
