Background:
System: Sun SparcStation 1 (the original, not the plus)
OS: Sun OS 4.0.3
X: X11R4 patchlevel 14
Window: twm
I received X11R4 and have it running fine. There seem to be missing many .h
files in the /usr/include/X11 directory. I still have them in the old X11R3
release, so I just moved them over . . . mistake? I dunno, but I still can't
get many of the contrib clients to compile. For example: xcalendar gives me
the errors:
ld: Undefined symbol
_XtStringSourceDestroy
_XShapeCombineMask
_XtStringSourceCreate
_XShapeQueryExtension
_XtTextGetSource
_XtTextSetSource
This isn't the first time I've seen _XShapeCombineMask and
_XShapeQueryExtension missing. WHAT DID I MISS?????????????
PLEASE, send your replies directly to me. I don't get to read news as often as
I should. All replies will be summerized unless requested not to . . .
THANK YOU very much!!

You are probably talking about the Xaw header files, which were moved into a subdirectory in R4. Look at /usr/include/X11/Xaw and see if the "missing" files are lurking there. > I still have them in the old X11R3 release, so I just moved them over > . . . mistake? Perhaps. If the internals have changed from R3 to R4, you may find yourself using the wrong include files for the libraries. > I dunno, but I still can't get many of the contrib clients to > compile.

WHAT DID I MISS????????????? The XShape* routines come from -lXext, the X extension library. They are part of the SHAPE extension. The Xt stuff I haven't much of a clue on. The names look to me like interfaces to some sort of widget or other, but the leading Xt makes them look like toolkit routines. Perhaps they are widget interfaces whose names were changed to reflect reality? der Mouse old: mcgill-vision!mouse new: mouse@larry.mcrcim.mcgill.edu (I think it's the Xaw headers that moved. Check all subdirectories of /usr/include/X11....)
