Some hints for building xview-3.2p1 on X11R6: -------------------------------------------- Tested environment: Sun Sparcstation 2, sunos 4.1.2, standard cc Sun Sparcstation IPX, sunos 4.1.3, standard cc If you did build your X11 with gcc and made it your default compiler in your X11 config files, you should take a look at config/XView.tmpl and uncomment the lines close to the end which say that it is only needed here (just search for lumpi) Installation: - Edit config/XView.cf for your path-settings - Follow the instructions in the top-level README - enjoy Changes made: - Read access to private gc structures were redone by calling XGetGCValues - Access to display structure, such as the file descriptor were changed to ConnectionNumber() or corresponding macros - Access to display structure defaults database was done with XGetResourceDatabase (perhaps forgot the name - its 4am) - translate_key was reworked in some ugly way with XKeysymToString, i haven't found any negative effects yet. - All changes are marked with my email address, so you could just do a grep. Everything in the libraries is #ifdef'd with X11R6. The corresponding switch for R6 is in config/XView.cf - it is marked. Problems: - Internalizaion of more than level 3 (I18????) has not been tested. - Solaris 2.x is not supported since we don't run it here Known-Bugs: - Haven't found anything by now. Tested applications include the standard clients such as cmdtool, olwm, clock etc. but also contributed software such as ftptool. Warranty: - NONE License: - The corresponding XVIEW Licenses applies. XView is a trademark of SUN Microsystems as well as Open Look i believe. Have fun. Please email suggestions, fixes, bug-reports or thankfull greetings to me. Joern Lubkoll, lumpi@dobag.in-berlin.de
