Can't locate wxPerl/Constructors/doc.pm in @INC

[bedohave9]

I am getting an @INC error when I have tried to run my script with wxPerl::Constructors.
Here is the error below :
C:\Documents and Settings\sp\Desktop\Perl>cgdpframe.pl
Can't locate wxPerl/Constructors/doc.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/site/lib C:/Perl/lib .) at C:\Documents and Settings\sp\Desktop\Perl
\cgdpframe.pl line 9.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\Documents and Settings\sp\Desktop\Perl\cgdpframe.pl line 9.

I have tried using the path where it is "actually installed"(I believe), then I have used the below path at use lib as below in the code :
use lib 'C:\Users\sp\AppData\Roaming\.cpanplus\5.16.1\build\wxPerl-Constructors-v0.0.4\lib\wxPerl';
Then the console threw the below error :
C:\Documents and Settings\sp\Desktop\Perl>winframe.pl
Can't locate wxPerl/Constructors/doc.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:\Users\sp\AppData\Roaming\.cpanplus\5.16.1\build\wxPerl-Constructors-v0.0.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\Documents and Settings\sp\Desktop\Perl\winframe.pl line 9.

I have an Active Perl instance on my machine. Perviously, I used to have Strawberry Perl and Active Perl both, but then seeing the I am getting confused with both the perl distros. I have removed both of them and installed the new Active Perl on my machine, but could not able to remove the HKLM entries from the Registry Editor due to confusion of what to remove. I could able to install the Wx properly but this is happening when I have installed the wxPerl::Constructors.

The install log for the same as attached.

Unfortunately I'm unable to access your attachments; you need to upload them somewhere and then link to them in the attachment field (confusing I realise).

Meanwhile, I don't think you should be pointing to the CPAN build location for your module. If the CPAN build/installation succeeded it should have installed the module in an appopriate location in your Perl library directories. Try checking the build log yourself to see whether the location is mentioned, or try doing a search on your system for the .pm files.

I have also tried doing the use lib with all the possible locations, but could not able to succeed successfully running the script.
The below are the logs.

So did you reinstall wxPerl::Constructors after installing IPC::Run? Did it succeed this time?

I have tried to re-install this. Here is the message in the console for the successful installation.

cpan> install wxPerl::Constructors
←[32mReading 'C:\Perl64\cpan\Metadata'←[0m
←[32m Database was generated on Mon, 24 Sep 2012 11:10:52 GMT←[0m
←[32mwxPerl::Constructors is up to date (v0.0.4).←[0m
←[32m←[0m

I have tried executing the script relating the location to where it is installed, but the same error is being thrown by the console.
Please let me know where am I missing. There seems to be something wrong in my execution or my script, which I could not able to test figuring it out rather than just keeping all the installed .pm locations.

Here is my program : (This is just a base example program to see if this works after the wxPerl::Constructors installation.)
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use Wx;
use wxPerl::Constructors:oc;
#use lib qw(C:\Perl\site\lib\wxPerl);
#use lib qw(C:/Perl/lib/);
#use lib qw(C:/Perl/site/lib/);
use local::lib;


package MyApp;

use base 'wx::App';

Sub OnInit {

my $self = shift;

my $frame = wxPerl::Frame->new (
style => &Wx::wxMAXIMIZE_BOX | &Wx::wxCLOSE_BOX

);

$frame -> show;

}

MyApp->new->MainLoop;

#or, just setting a size :
my $frame = Wx::Frame->new (
undef,
-1,
'A Prometheus Application',
&Wx::wxDefaultPosition,
[800, 600],

);

# or, with just the defaults:

my $frame = wxPerl::Frame->new (undef, 'CGDP Application');

 

[Annihilannic]

Well... I thought I would install it myself just to see (under Strawberry Perl)... half an hour later it is still compiling dependencies. :-/

[Annihilannic]

I don't think the problem is with the module installation, it's with your code. Case matters.

'sub' is all lowercase.

'Wx:App' has a capital W.

You need to 'use wxPerl::Constructors;'. The doc part is just the documentation for it. Those are the first things that I notice anyway...

[bedohave9]

Annihilannic, you are absolutely right. The problem is not with the module installation, it is with the code.
I have corrected the code it worked fine, but one thing I would like to share with you is wxPerl::Constructors has no "wxPerl::Frame->new" object. It has Text Controls, I have pointed to right object and it worked absolutely fine.
Thank you very much Annihilannic.

 

[bedohave9]

My bad, I was wrong, it does have 'wxPerl::Frame->new', but I have again changed somethings related to the code and it worked fine.
wxPerl::Constructors has wxPerl::Frame->new
