What"s AUTOLOAD?

I was following some examples online and wrote this small script:

============================================================ ==========
use Tk;
use Tk::Tree;
my $mw = MainWindow->new(-title => "Tree");

my $tree = $mw->Tree()->pack(-fill => 'both', -expand => 1);

foreach (qw/orange purple orange.1 purple.1/) {
$tree->add($_, -text => $_);
}
$tree->autosetmode();
MainLoop;
============================================================ ==========

I got this msg:

============================================================ ==========
Failed to AUTOLOAD 'Tk::Tree::tixGetimage' at C:\..\tktest.pl line 10
============================================================ ==========

What does this mean? I recently installed new Tk modules via PPM - could
that cause this?

Autoload is where perl looks if it can't find a function. Basically it's
telling you that you called an undefined method for the object Tk::Tree
named tixGetimage. It certainly could be caused by a new version. Check
tktest.pl for the function tixGetimage and look in the PM files for where it
might have moved, or if it was removed/commented out.
