NAME
FBP - Parser and Object Model for wxFormBuilder Project Files (.fpb
files)
SYNOPSIS
my $object = FBP->new;
$object->parse_file( 'MyProject.fbp' );
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: Documentation is limited as this module is in active development
wxFormBuilder is currently the best and most sophisticated program for
designing wxWidgets dialogs, and generating the code for these designs.
However, wxFormBuilder does not currently support the generation of Perl
code. If we are to produce Perl code for the designs it creates, the
code generation must be done independantly, outside of wxFormBuilder
itself.
FBP is a SAX-based parser and object model for the XML project files
that are created by wxFormBuilder. While it does NOT do the creation of
Perl code itself, it should serve as a solid base for anyone who wishes
to produce a code generator for these saved files.
METHODS
new
my $fbp = PBP->new;
The "new" constructor takes no arguments and creates a new parser/model
object.
dialog
my $dialog = $fbp->dialog('MyDialog1');
Convience method which finds and returns the root FBP::Dialog object for
a specific named dialog box in the object model.
my $ok = $fbp->parse_file( 'foo/bar.fbp' );
The "parse_file" method takes a named fbp project file, and parses it to
produce an object model.
Returns true if the parsing run succeeds, or throws an exception on
error.
