[comp.windows.x] Help! Installing xview in Roell's X

dch2@engr.uark.edu (David Hobbs) (05/10/91)

I have tried unsuccessfully to compile a simple xview program found
in an O'Reilly book, quit.c, that creates a window and a quit button.
I am using Roell's port and ESIX.  I am compiling with:

	cc -DSYSV -DSYSV386 -DESIX -Di386 ...

Every time, I get syntax errors and illegal type combinations in types.h.
I have received a few suggestions which have alleviated earlier problems,
but these errors still exist.  Oddly, when I write a simple program that
just includes types.h, there is no syntax errors.  Apparently, types.h
is being included in another header file, but I don't know why that would
cause an error the second (or third) time it's included.

Has anyone out there run xview under Roell's port, and if so, did you
have to compile with more than what I have shown (other than libraries
of course)?  

I had a full set of hair before I began...
