There is Appendix C of Scheifler and Gettys book "X Window System" 3rd
edition.

I've found that section pretty poor, especially compared to the rest
of the book, which is an excellent reference.  Unfortunately, other
than the source, it's pretty much all there is.

So, guess what I suggest: check out the mit/extensions directory for
help.  Particularly good files to look at: extutil.h and extutil.c.
That code actually exposes an inefficiency in Xlib: it duplicates the
searching that goes on when you look for a display extension record.

You might ask why Xlib even provides for display extension records, if
they can't be efficiently used.  I did, and recently submitted a bug
report for it.

Good Luck.

Top level shell widgets have visual and colormap resources.  You can set
these for an entire widget tree.  Note that there may be some bugs in some
versions of Motif that cause this to break.

If you want to set visuals for non-shell widgets, you'll have to subclass the
widget to add the functionality to the realize method.

We were thinking of getting some NCD Xterminals to replace our
VT220s when we came across a demo for eXcursion, which is 
offered by Digital and is (I quote)
' a full implementation of the MIT X Windows Version 11 Release
4 server. It runs as a Microsoft Windows Version 3.0 application,
creating Microsoft Windows windows in which remote Decwindows
or X Windows appliocations display graphics and receive input.'

Since one could buy a PC with Windows for less than
the cost of an Xterminal, and get the potential for local
applications like wordprocessing as well, what's the
advantage of an Xterminal? 

Has anyone tried eXcursion? Is it slower than a regular
Xterminal? Any problems? 

I'm also interested in any experiences with particular
brands of Xterminals, i.e performance, cost etc., especially
from anyone who has been through this decision recently.
Any additional comments are most welcome.

Susan Chacko.

There are two common reasons for this error.  One is that the directory
isn't properly set up (mkfontdir or equivalent).  The other is that
you've neglected to note that the path you provide must be valid in the
*server*'s view of the filesystem.  Its validity from xset's point of
view is completely irrelevant (though in some cases xset and the server
will have the same point of view).

From the rest of your posting (which I deleted), I suspect the latter
in this case.  But you didn't describe enough of your setup for me to
be certain.

I have a small problem that I _really_ need help with in time to finish
up some code by 5pm yesterday :)

I am using XView to do an application, and I need to pack a grid of check
boxes closely together. I am using xv_create(panel, PANEL_CHECK_BOX, NULL)
to create check boxes without a label. Unfortunately, there still seems to
be a space to the right of the displayed check box which is sensitive to
mouse clicks (it isn't on the left). Thus, if I pack them closer than on
34 pixel boundries, clicking inside a check box may sometimes cause the
box to the left to toggle instead of the intended box.

Any ideas how to get plain old check boxes without this problem so they can
be lined up on about 26 pixel boundries? Any alternate solutions? My current
best guess is to use a button, but the nifty checkmark effect was really
perfect for this application.

Thanks in advance,
PG

You may also re-build all the headers for your machine.

``make fix-includes'' (I think) after installing gcc does it for a Sun. 

The problem is that Sun's header says ``int exit()'' &ct, but gcc wants
``void exit()'' &ct.

Just to pick a nit ... Most applications with multiple top-level
windows use just one display connection to operate all their windows.

A customized XIO handler can't help with distinguishing a single-
window delete operation from an application crash.  Once Xlib gets
around to calling your custom XIO error handler it's too late: the X
connection and the application's server resources have already been
destroyed.

Hello,

Mr. Oliver Jones does an excellent job discussing the
implementation of "Multi-User Application Software Using
Xt" in the Summer 1992 issue of The X Resource.

Mr. Jones mentions that the client must arrange for
authorization to connect to multiple servers.  We can
handle the authorization problems, but we have run
into another gotcha when opening the display.

When the client attempts to open a server which
is running XDM, the XtOpenDisplay blocks until someone
logs into the server.  This is not acceptable.

How can we either:

 -- Query the server to determine that XDM
    is running and no one is logged in?  (Or
    even better that a XtOpenDisplay will block.) 

 -- Have XtOpenDisplay timeout?

Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to compile a program under X11R4 (1.0) on ESIX 5.3.2D.
In order to save on disk space, I only load the X11 libraries which
I think are necessary (in this case, libX11.a).
 
Using gcc as my compiler I get the following link error -

Do I need other 'X11R4' libraries installed?  Do I need the <1.1>
release of X11R4? Or what....?
 
BTW, the program is a '3-D' Mandelbrot display program - 'cpm'
and runs fine under X11R4 on my office HP 720.
and runs fine under X11R4 on our office SPARC and HP 720 machines.

Xterm runs with euid == 0 but ruid == your uid. My manual page for kill(2)
says (SunOS 4.1.2):

     The real or effective user ID of the  sending  process  must
     match  the  real  or saved set-user ID of the receiving pro-
     cess, unless the effective user ID of the sending process is
     super-user.  A single exception is the signal SIGCONT, which
     may always be sent to any member of the same session as  the
     current process.


So you can kill a process that started life as a set-uid executable,
even when it didn't totally revert to you. Remember that xterm must
keep an effective uid of root because it has to undo the chowns/chmod
of your pty and the entry in /etc/utmp.

I'd like to use xcalc without touching the mouse at all - only the keyboard.
Seems that it should be simple, but I haven't been able to do it.  Here's how
I do it now:

  1. type "xcalc"
  2. the xcalc window shows on the screen.
     I don't need the mouse to position it because I have "RandomPlacement" on
     in my ~/.twmrc file.
     (Yes, by the way, I am using twm - because it doesn't use much memory
      and it is simple and works better than uwm)
  3. Move the mouse so the cursor is in the xcalc window
  4. type my commands to xcalc
  5. ^C when I am done.

I want to eliminate step 3.  Is there a simple way to do this?
In general, the xcalc window pops up in a place where my mouse is not.


Thank you.  Please reply to ben@oskgate0.mei.co.jp

The treeParent resource can be set on a child of the Tree widget at any time.
Setting it will not necessarily have an immediate effect on the layout of the
children (nodes) of the Tree.  The layout is affected anytime a child of the
Tree is managed or unmanaged.  So it is management that it coupled with the
ability to see the resource have an effect on the layout, not creation.

You could create all the potential nodes, then later use XtSetValues on
their Tree constraint resource XtNtreeParent, and then manage all the
interesting nodes.  The Tree autoReconfigure resource is supposed to be able
to give the application programmer a way to delay the geometry management
negotiations until all the nodes are managed, but this is apparently a
no-op, so you may see a lot of geometry jiggling going on as you make the
calls to manage children.

Probably to avoid having to design and implement such an algorithm,
since it will be hard to do very much better than compress does, and
even if this is managed, it will probably fail on "unusual" fonts,
like cursor or the xmahjongg font.

Subject: Changing Colormap RGB values...

Problem:    How to dynamically change the RGB values in a colormap entry
            so that all objects using that colormap index automatically
            change to the new color (in XView or Xlib).

H/W & S/W:  Sun SS 2 running OW 2.

Project:    I am developing a simple app using XView to allow users
            to interactively change the RGB component values of a
           	given colormap index.  The idea is when the colormap
			components change, all objects drawn using that index
			automatically assume the new color without any application
			procedure getting called to do the drawing.

Request:    I would like to see sample code that changes the RGB
			values on the fly.  Can someone help?

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers!

         I am trying to build X11R5 on a Sun 3/50 with OS 3.5. It
	 seems that one of the makefiles generated (specifically,
	 the one in /mit/lib/Xau) has syntax errors in it. Has
	 anyone built R5 under the OS?  I'm not sure if I have
	 configured the build incorrectly, or if I have an old
	 version of make.  Any suggestions would be greatly
	 appreciated.  And thank you to those who responded to
	 my previous question.
