Hellooo Xperts,
Before I ask my stoopid question please note that I am just a novice at this
game so please be gentle.
I have an application on an IRIS which was written using the HP widget set
which I would now like to run on my VAXStation using the DECWindows widget set.
(Sounds simple to me so far)
So I go to the great grey binder room and dig out the DECWindows programming
doc and RTFM and RTFM but try as I might I can't find a list of widget classes
anywhere. They seem to be buried in 'high' and 'low' level widget routines :-(
What gives??? I just want to do the equivalent of
w = XtCreateManagedWidget("Main panel", XwrowColWidgetClass, parent, NULL, 0);
w = XtCreateManagedWidget(name, XwscrollbarWidgetClass, parent, wargs, n);
etc...
ie. What is the DECWindows equivalent to XwscrollbarWidgetClass et. al.and
where is it documented??? Is there an equivalent?? I naively (SP?) assumed that
all widget sets had basically the same widgets (with only superficial
differences). Is that safe?
And now a futures question... Will I have these problems if and when I get
MOTIF??
Thanks in advance to anyone who might answer. Martin
