133.SH "NAME"
134Tk::callbacks \- Specifying code for Tk to call.
135.SH "SYNOPSIS"
136.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
137One can specify a callback in one of the following ways:
138.PP
139Without arguments:
140.PP
141.Vb 3
142\& ... => \e&subname, ...
143\& ... => sub { ... }, ...
144\& ... => 'methodname', ...
145.Ve
146.PP
147or with arguments:
148.PP
149.Vb 3
150\& ... => [ \e&subname ?, args ...? ], ...
151\& ... => [ sub { ... } ?, args...? ], ...
152\& ... => [ 'methodname' ?, args...?], ...
153.Ve
154.SH "DESCRIPTION"
155.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
156Perl/Tk has a callback, where Tcl/Tk has a command string (i.e. a fragment of
157Tcl to be executed). A perl/Tk callback can take one of the following
158basic forms:
159.ie n .IP "\(bu Reference to a subroutine ""\e&subname""" 4
160.el .IP "\(bu Reference to a subroutine \f(CW\e&subname\fR" 4
161.IX Item "Reference to a subroutine &subname"
162.PD 0
163.ie n .IP "\(bu Anonymous subroutine (closure) ""sub { ... }""" 4
164.el .IP "\(bu Anonymous subroutine (closure) \f(CWsub { ... }\fR" 4
165.IX Item "Anonymous subroutine (closure) sub { ... }"
166.ie n .IP "\(bu A method name 'methodname'" 4
167.el .IP "\(bu A method name \f(CW'methodname'\fR" 4
168.IX Item "A method name 'methodname'"
169.PD
170.PP
171Any of these can be provided with arguments by enclosing them and the
172arguments in \fB[]\fR. Here are some examples:
173.PP
174\&\fI$mw\fR\->\fBbind\fR(\fI$class,\fR \fB"<Delete>" => 'Delete'\fR);
175.PP
176This will call \fI$widget\fR\->\fBDelete\fR, the \fI$widget\fR being provided (by bind) as
177the one where the Delete key was pressed.
178.PP
179While having bind provide a widget object for you is ideal in many cases
180it can be irritating in others. Using the list form this behaviour
181can be modified:
182.PP
183\&\fI$a\fR\->\fBbind\fR(\fB"<Delete>"\fR,[\fI$b\fR => 'Delete']);
184.PP
185because the first element \fI$b\fR is an object bind
186will call \fI$b\fR\->\fBDelete\fR.
187.PP
188Note that method/object ordering only matters for \f(CW\*(C`bind\*(C'\fR callbacks,
189the auto-quoting in perl5.001 makes the first of these a little more readable:
190.PP
191$w\->configure(\-yscrollcommand => [ set => \f(CW$ysb\fR]);
192.PP
193$w\->configure(\-yscrollcommand => [ \f(CW$ysb\fR => 'set' ]);
194.PP
195but both will call \f(CW$ysb\fR\->set(args provided by Tk)
196.PP
197Another use of arguments allows you to write generalized methods which are
198easier to re\-use:
199.PP
200$a\->bind("<Next>",['Next','Page']);
201.PP
202$a\->bind("<Down>",['Next','Line']);
203.PP
204This will call \f(CW$a\fR\->\fINext\fR('Page') or \f(CW$a\fR\->\fINext\fR('Line') respectively.
205.PP
206Note that the contents of the \f(CW\*(C`[]\*(C'\fR are evaluated by perl when the
207callback is created. It is often desirable for the arguments provided
208to the callback to depend on the details of the event which caused
209it to be executed. To allow for this callbacks can be nested using the
210\&\f(CW\*(C`Ev(...)\*(C'\fR \*(L"constructor\*(R".
211\&\f(CW\*(C`Ev(...)\*(C'\fR inserts callback objects into the
212argument list. When perl/Tk glue code is preparing the argument list for
213the callback it is about to call it spots these special objects and
214recursively applies the callback process to them.
