in reply to Tk, fork and ->configure

With the following minimal modifications to your code, it works.

I wouldn't advise using it as is particularly but if you can understand how the modifications make it work, you'll probably see a better way for doing this. (Hint: You won't need fork)

use strict; use warnings; use IO::Socket; use threads; use threads::shared; use Thread::Queue; use Tk; $| = 1; my $Q = new Thread::Queue; $Q->enqueue( 'Primer' ); my $server = IO::Socket::INET->new( LocalPort => 2345, Type => SOCK_STREAM, Reuse => 1, Listen => 10 ) or die "Error: $@\n"; $SIG{CHLD} = sub { exit }; my $entry = "start..."; my $wsk = \$entry; my $main = MainWindow->new( -title => 'Socket - listen', ); my $ent1 = $main->Label( -text => "I'm waitin on port 2345\n So, you tell me...", )->pack(); my $ent2 = $main->Label( -text => $entry, )->pack(); $main->repeat( 100, sub{ return unless $Q->pending; my $in = $Q->dequeue(); $ent2->configure( -text => $in ); } ); my $child; my $guzik1 = $main->Button( -text => 'Exit', -command => sub { kill 9, $child; exit 0 }, )->pack( -side => 'bottom', ); $child = fork(); if ( $child == 0 ) { while ( my $client = $server->accept() ) { while ( defined( my $in = <$client> ) ) { #print $in; #control $Q->enqueue( $in ); } } } MainLoop()
