[comp.windows.x] Compiling X11R4-distibuted InterViews with G++ ?

cs491125@umbc5.umbc.edu (12/05/90)

	Just lately I finally got around to trying to build the
	version of InterViews (2.6, I think) distributed with MIT
	X11R4.  I tried to use GNU C++ version 1.37.1.

	Well, the 'make World' went to h*ll trying to compile the
	X11-dependent parts of InterViews; basically the G++
	compiler detected some kind of conflict between the
	prototype declarations in /usr/include/X11/X{lib,util}.h
	and those in contrib/toolkits/InterView/libInterViews/src/*.h.
	I imagine there must be some simple explanation for this,
	but three hours of searching failed to turn anything up.
	I'm sorry that I cannot post a log of the messages, the
	machine I usually use has no net access (!). 

	Has anybody out there in net-land encountered this problem?
	Does anybody know of a good, simple fix that will let me
	compile InterViews?  Getting the latest version from an
	archive site is neither feasible nor even possible.

	Thanks in advance...
