I'd like to install the X11R4 input synthesis extensions in my Sun server.
After poking around in the extensions and server directories, I have
compiled what I believe is a recipe for doing this. Before I launch into
it, however, I thought I'd sanity check my plan with the collective genius
of comp.windows.x and see where I might be off the mark:
*) Install the fragments in mit/extensions/server/xtest1.frags
in my server as instructed in that file
*) Build libxinput.a by doing a make in mit/extensions/xinput
*) Define XTESTEXT1 in my sun.cf file as one of the extensions
to be built:
#define ExtensionDefines -DSHAPE -DMITSHM -DMULTIBUFFER -DMITMISC -DXTESTEXT1
*) In the Server Master Makefile (mit/server/Imakefile) define
OTHEREXTS to be $(EXTENSIONSRC)/server/xinput/libxinput.a
just as is currently done for XhpServer.
*) In mit/server, do:
$ make Makefile
$ make Makefiles
$ make depend
$ make clean
$ make
This should rebuild my server, linking it against
mit/extensions/server/libxext.a (defined in $(EXTENSIONS)) and
mit/extensions/server/xinput/libxinput.a (defined in $(OTHEREXTS)).
*) Build my applications against libXext.a (which is in
mit/extensions/lib) and libXinput.a (which is in
mit/extensions/lib/xinput).
Is this close? Anyone out there done this before?
