[comp.windows.x] g++ and X

DAVID%CSVAX1%IRUCCVAX.UCC.IE@mitvma.mit.EDU (06/12/91)

Hi there, befopre I start I'd better say I'm using X11R3 libraries and include
files under AUX on an Apple 2fx, I'm trying to write an application using X
functions in C++ , using Gnus g++ compiler.

I'm having major problems getting g++ to handle the release 3 files.

I was told (perhaps incorrectly) that the WWL (widget wrapper library) was what
I needed, as it would enable me to fix up R3 to work with g++.

I duly FTPd it and on uncompressing it and reading its Release notes and
READMEs I am now under the impression this is only good for motif with R3 and
Athena with R4, however I want to use Athena widgets with R3, so basically I
would appreciate (before I attempt to set up this WWL thing, and find out too
late its no good) if some one would help me out by telling if

1) Release 3 stuff can be used with g++
2) if so is WWL enough to do the fixing up
   if so whats neccessary - simply install ?
3) if WWL is not adequate, what package will fix this up for me ?

I hope these questions make some sort of sense to some one out there, and sorry
if I was somewhat long winded

Thanks in advance

Dave
