(x,y) is the lower-left corner where the character should be drawn.
The width parameter allows Canvas to bundle several character requests,
e.g., consecutive calls with 'a', w, x and 'b', <anything>, x+w could allow
'ab' to be written in a single drawing request.

Sorry, this is a repost since I sent it from the wrong machine so a few
of you will get two copies.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

	Quit some time ago. I got word that you could anonymous FTP Interviews
binaries for Sun4 machines. 

	The key point to these binaries was that the C++ libraries were static,
it made the objects bigger but for a guy who doesn't have the room on his HD
for C++ this would be excellent.

	Anyways, I went to the site (and I'm not sure which one it was) but
did not have the permissions to ftp the tar file.

	Now if anyone has a copy of this (or can tell me how to adjust the 
makefiles so that the C++ libraries only are static) could you please 
get a hold of me to arrange the transfer or mail me instructions.

This problem was solved by replacing -cckr with +a0 to disable ANSI 
prototypes for our CC. It introduced a host of new and ugly warnings, but
it also created working binaries. Sometimes the result counts, I suppose.

I'm sure this question comes up millions of times, but in the stuff
I've seen on the net so far I haven't seen a simple coherent answer.

Can I run Interviews 3.0 using gcc 2.1?

I understand there are difficulties with the iostream package, but
that these are not fatal. I have also heard that Interviews appears to
build, but parts of it crash, presumably because of compiler bugs.

What I'm looking for is a simple set of directions like "get this
source tree, apply these patches, and type make".

Barring that, does anyone have gcc 2.1 compatible Ultrix binaries for
the Interviews 2.6 distribution?

Nelson, looking for the easy way out.

Subject: Raster images in IV
Date: 9 Apr 92 01:04:23 GMT
Organization: Senior, Math/Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon, Pittsburgh, PA


I am trying to display a raster in IV.  The format for an image in the
raster class is a TIFF file.  The original image I had was in GIF
format.  I converted it to TIFF only to realize how enormous color TIFF
format files were (since color TIFF supports 24 bit color).  A file of
the size that resulted from the TIFF format conversion is very
undesirable.  Is there any other format image that can be displayed in
IV?  How have people in the past who have wanted to display color TIFF
images in IV dealt with this problem?  The resolution I am going to be
displaying my image at is only 8 bit color so it would be desirable to
find a way to store the image in other than the color TIFF format and
still display.  Any information or experience would be greatly
appreciated.

I don't know anything about IV2.6 or Unidraw, but we are writing an
application which needs to display simple graphics such as lines,
circles, etc. using only IV 3.xx.  We decided to use the code in
doc/Figure.c also, and are putting the circles in an Overlay glyph.

The fact that Imakefiles can be small is a feature.

* Talking to myself is such fun?

* ibuild doesn't seem to work on our SGI. after running it once, then
running it again, the second run core dumps. This seems to be direcly
related to the existance of the TOOLS file after the first run (it is
created for you automatically, along with *.Tool). Saving an interface 
seems to work, but opening an interface hangs. MarginFrames only seem to
occupy space in the vertical direction, when following the exact instructions
in the little ibuild manual/tutorial.

Has anyone got suggestions/fixes for any of these problems?

Thanks for any help!

Bob I agree that the learning curve is high.  Although sometime's I think

    I suspect the steepness of the learning curve is strongly
correlated with how expert a C++ programmer one is. Being not just
familiar, but comfortable with inheritance and subclassing is a
perquisite to effective use of InterViews IMO. The mental model I use
for IV programming differs greatly from that for, say, Mac Toolbox or
sx (I haven't had to use more recent C X toolkits, which I'm grateful
for, having skimmed some of the documentation :-)

I think a small example will explain it:

Foo a_regular_foo;
const Foo a_constant_foo;
Bar a_regular_bar;

// Initialization code or whatever.

// Foo::func() returns a reference to bar, so we could assign to it.

a_regular_bar = a_regular_foo.func(); // OK

a_regular_bar = a_constant_foo.func() // OK as long as Bar::operator=() is
				      // defined:
				      //   Bar::operator=(const &Bar)
				      //                  ^^^^^

a_regular_foo.func() = a_regular_bar; // OK: assignment to a non constant
				      // object.

a_constant_foo.func() = a_regular_bar; // Error: Assignment to constant
				       // object.

In general a call to Foo:func() will return const Bar & if the object for which
it is called is constant. This guarantees that a constant Foo is not altered by
getting its Bar and then modifying it.

Hope it helps,

Juan

Check out the punidraw tutorial in iv/src/papers/punidraw.ps.Z.  If
you'd like information on Unidraw beyond the man pages, you might
check out the article that appeared in the July 1990 issue of ACM
Transactions on Information Systems, titled "Unidraw: A Framework for
Building Domain-Specific Graphical Editors."

For more detail, you can order a copy of my thesis for a nominal cost
by sending mail to Naomi Schulman (schulman@shasta.stanford.edu).  Ask
for a copy of CSL-TR-90-427, titled "Generalized Graphical Object

Well,

I am involved in building a GUI and we have a problem.  Our development
language is C++, of course, and we have some "wrapper" libraries for Motif
but they wrap it only at a pretty low level.  We like InterViews much
better as a basis for continuing development, but there are a lot of pretty
widgets working in raw C/Motif and we doubt we can reproduce them in IV in
less than a couple of months, if ever.  Even then they may not have the 
completely Motif-consistent look and feel we need.  

Does anyone out there have any experience integrating Motif widgets and
InterViews code ?  Is it possible ?  To what degree does the InterViews
main loop differ from the Motif main loop, so far as the widgets would care?

Thanks for any pointers you can offer,

 *** This is the wrong fix for this problem. It produced buggy code due to
incorrect pointer casts (as far as I could tell). I will note that our
CC compiler doesn't accept -cckr. The correct fix was to set the environment
variable SGI_CC to -cckr instead; this caused the code to compile and run
correctly.

I don't understand how your makefiles got built.  You should have -cckr
defined in config/InterViews/iv-sgi.cf.  Cfront doesn't generate ANSI code,
so you need -cckr to make it through the C compiler safely.
