PPM
This PPM repository contains 32 bit binary distributions of Wx and related modules. An index of the major modules contained in this repository is at the PPM Repository Index.
Microsoft Windows: Minimum Perl versions supported: Perl 5.8.8 and Perl 5.10.0 Minimum operating system version - Windows 2000. Architectures - i386 32 bit
Linux : Minimum Perl version supported : Perl 5.10.0. Minimum glibc 2.5 and gtk 2.10. See Linux Dependencies for major distro information. Architectures - i386 32 bit
Mac OSX : Minimum Perl version supported Perl 5.10.0. Minimum operating system version - Mac OSX 10.4 - Tiger. Universal binaries are included. Architectures - universal 32bit (i386 and ppc)
Your Perl must be compatible with the build environment for these modules so you will avoid problems if you use the 32 bit binary distributions of Perl from ActiveState.
Minumum ActiveState builds supported are:
Perl 5.10 : ActiveState build 1002
Perl 5.8 : ActiveState build 822 (Microsoft Windows only)
On Microsoft Windows, you may also have success with Strawberry Perl. As Strawberry Perl uses a command line PPM tool, there are specific instructions for Strawberry Perl here.
Once you have a suitable version of Perl installed, use the Perl Package Manager to install PPMs from this site. From the application menu under Edit -> Preferences, add a new repository using the URL
Choose to install Wx, Wx::Demo, Wx::TreeListCtrl and Wx::GLCanvas to start. You can then run the Wx::Demo to see examples of many of the GUI controls that wxPerl provides.
For older Linux distributions compatible with RHEL4 (glibc 2.3.4 and gtk 2.4) a sub repository with suitable RPMs is provided at
http://www.wxperl.co.uk/repository/rhel4
There are platform specific instructions on running wxPerl scripts and the wxPerl Demo on the platform specific pages - Platforms.
