This distribution contains makefiles for VMS. It is a very preliminary release
|
||||
and many tests have still to be done.
|
||||
|
||||
The compilation was tested with
|
||||
-OpenVMS Alpha 7.2-1
|
||||
-DECC 6.2
|
||||
-Compaq C++ 6.2
|
||||
-DECWindows 1.2-5
|
||||
-GTK1.2.8 (for wxGTK)
|
||||
|
||||
To get everything compiled you'll need to have installed prior to compiling
|
||||
wxWidgets:
|
||||
-Bison
|
||||
get it from http://www.openvms.digital.com/freeware/
|
||||
You'll have to fix the following bug:
|
||||
add the following 3 lines in BISON.SIMPLE
|
||||
#elif __VMS
|
||||
#include <stdlib.h>
|
||||
#define alloca malloc
|
||||
before
|
||||
#endif /* __hpux */
|
||||
|
||||
-Flex
|
||||
get it from http://www.openvms.digital.com/freeware/
|
||||
|
||||
-Sed
|
||||
get it from http://www.openvms.digital.com/freeware/
|
||||
|
||||
-sys$library:libjpeg.olb (from ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/ )
|
||||
add /name=(as_is,short) to CFLAGS in the descrip.mms file
|
||||
don't forget to mms/descrip=Makefile/macro="ALPHA=1"
|
||||
|
||||
-sys$library:libpng.olb & sys$library:libz.olb (from
|
||||
http://www.cdrom.com/pub/png/pngcode.html )
|
||||
add /name=(as_is,short) to CFLAGS in the descrip.mms of both png and
|
||||
zlib
|
||||
|
||||
-sys$library:libtiff.olb (from: ftp://ftp.sgi.com/graphics/tiff/ )
|
||||
- add /name=(as_is,short) to the C_COMPILE variable in MAKVMS.COM
|
||||
- the following patch is needed in the tiff3.4 distribution:
|
||||
polka-jj) diff TIFFCOMP.H;3 TIFFCOMP.H;1
|
||||
************
|
||||
File $DISK2:[JOUKJ.PUBLIC.TIFF.TIFF.LIBTIFF]TIFFCOMP.H;3
|

|

98 #define HAVE_UNISTD_H 1
|
||||
99 #endif
|
||||

|
||||
************
|
||||
|
||||
-X11:libxpm.olb ( from ftp://koala.inria.fr/pub/xpm/ )
|
||||
add /name=(as_is,short) to cc_defs in the descrip.mms file
|
||||
|
||||
-GTK & VMS Porting library (only needed for wxGTK)
|
||||
( from http://www.openvms.digital.com/openvms/products/ips/gtk.html )
|
||||
|
||||
-Redefine the logical SYS$LIBRARY in such a way that it also points
|
||||
to the includefile/library directories of the above packages:
|
||||
i.e.
|
||||
$ define sys$library sys$sysroot:[syslib],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.public.xpm.xpm.lib],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.public.jpeg.jpeg],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.public.png.libpng],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.public.tiff.tiff.libtiff],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.public.png.zlib],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.public.gtk.gtk.glib],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.public.gtk.gtk.glib.gthread],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.compaq.porting_library.dist.include]
|
||||
|
||||
-redefine the logical X11 in such a way that also points to the
|
||||
xpm-distribution.
|
||||
i.e.
|
||||
$ define/nolog X11 $disk2:[joukj.public.xpm.xpm.lib],decw$include
|
||||
|
||||
-for wxGTK you'll have to redefine SYS$SHARE to compile and run the
|
||||
applications.
|
||||
i.e.
|
||||
$ ass $disk2:[joukj.public.gtk.gtk.glib],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.public.gtk.gtk.glib.gmodule],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.public.gtk.gtk.gtk.gdk],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.public.gtk.gtk.gtk.gtk],-
|
||||
$disk2:[joukj.compaq.porting_library.dist.lib],-
|
||||
sys$sysroot:[syslib] sys$share
|
||||
|
||||
-At the moment you'll have to hack the [.src.common]descrip.mms file
|
||||
to include the right location of bison/flex and sed, but i intend to
|
||||
make this better in future.
|
||||
|
||||
-The following is a work-around a include file bug which occurs on some
|
||||
versions of VMS. If you get lib$get_current_invo_context undefined
|
||||
while linking you'll have to add
|
||||
"lib$get_current_invo_context"="LIB$GET_CURR_INVO_CONTEXT"
|
||||
in [.src.unix]descrip.mms to CXX_DEFINE. and recompile wxWidgets.
|
||||
|
||||
-Some versions of the CC compiler give warnings like
|
||||
%CC-W-CXXKEYWORD, "bool" is a keyword in C++ .... when compiling
|
||||
if You encounter these, replace mms by mms/ignore=warning in the
|
||||
following
|
||||
|
||||
-Now build everything using one of the following
|
||||
mms
|
||||
mms gtk
|
||||
mms motif
|
||||
in the main directory of the distribution. Without an argument both wxGTK
|
||||
and wxMOTIF are built. The libraries are built in the [.lib] directory.
|
||||
All the samples I tried are built automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
-I think in general wxGTK is better maintained, so that version is my
|
||||
first choice.
|
||||
|
||||
-Note that only a few people have used wxWidgets on VMS so many problems are
|
||||
to be expected.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
-Many thanks for testing and reporting problems to:
|
||||
-Walter Braeu
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
-Known problems :
|
||||
wxMOTIF :
|
||||
-The calendar sample puts the boxes of the month and year selection on
|
||||
top of each other.
|
||||
-The caret sample: sometimes a non blinking caret remains in the
|
||||
window.
|
||||
-checklist sample: There is no way to check/uncheck since this box is
|
||||
missing
|
||||
-conftest sample: The boxes in the window are too small to display
|
||||
texts with the fonts specified.
|
||||
-controls sample: radiobox does not appear on the screen
|
||||
-Some samples crash due to colour allocation problems
|
||||
i.e. -drawing,image
|
||||
|
||||
wxGTK :
|
||||
-In the calendar sample options can only be switched on and not off
|
||||
again.
|
||||
-image sample: after clicking "about" the colourmap is permanently
|
||||
changed resulting in strange images
|
||||
|
||||
Finally :
|
||||
I like the idea of Robert Roebling that CD's with classical music should be
|
||||
send to the authors.
