Maybe you don't have everything installed for development regarding the Xt Intrinsics and Motif? (Correct paths to find include files? Can you find these files? Xm/Xm.h Xm/MainW.h Xm/CascadeB.h Correct paths for libriaries? Correct list of libraries for linking? ) Just a guess.
You hit the button: I have no Xm stuff; just the X11 and Xt stuff.
I found some suggested guidance here: http://www.zone-h.org/files/48/X%20WIndow-Motif%20Programming.htm
Thanks for this - all of my books are very old and I've struggled to find good references - plenty of "inadequate" ones... This site has plenty of reading, and appears to be excellent, so thank you.
What I see in their example is that they're using XtVaCreateManagedWidget() instead of XtCreateManagedWidget(). It's been about 13 years since I've done X and Motif, so I'm certain what that change means. My O'Reilley X books are buried under a ton of junk.
Mine date from around 1989!
Big question: X11 and Xt are essentially "part of the Linux platform" in a sense and I believe that their use is completely free. However, I understand that Motif went commercial; but what is the status of Motif now? I also see that Qt came with my SuSE 64. What is the commercial status of using this?
Thanks very much SC, Regards, Colin
Motif started out commercial, sorta went non-commercial, & now is back to commercial, I *think*. You could try lesstif or some such. My SuSE 8.2 (32-bit) box (this one, as it happens ;-) ) has the Xm developement stuff already on it (by default, I *think*) .... -- William A.
