I am new to X11 and I have compiled X11R4 tape-1 completely and have it installed and running. I am now working with tape-2 trying to get the contrib/clients compiled. It seems that most of them are looking in the wrong place for the include files. I have change the includes from #include <X11/Paned.h> #include <X11/AsciiText.h> to #include <X11/Xaw/Paned.h> #include <X11/Xaw/AsciiText.h> for example and the compilation succeeds. I have also had to define XAW_BC in a few of the sources to get other necessary declarations done. I obtained this source from an Internet site (not sure which). Do I have an out-of-date source "tape"? Or did I install the core tape incorrectly? I appreciate any help possible. Thanks dave

This is because many of the client programs are written for R3 and haven't
been updated. You can have your default imake invocation (xmkmf) create
Makefiles which use -DXAW_BC by setting:
/*
* 2. InstallOldHeaderFiles - set the following to YES until you have
* converted your Xaw programs to use the new naming scheme.
*/
#ifndef InstallOldHeaderFiles
#define InstallOldHeaderFiles YES /* set to YES for compat with R3 Xaw */
#endif
in the file mit/config/site.def, and then recompiling/installing the mit
core X11 source. If you don't do this, you will have change every
sourcefile by hand OR alter the Makefiles to compile with -DXAW_BC
everytime you build an R3 client.
Then when you xmkmf for each client, you shouldn't have to anything special
to get find your header files (assuming the source isn't hosed, which is
the case for a few clients).

Several of the tape-2 clients were written for X11R3 and not for R4, hence the wrong place of the include files. Since X11R4 (including tape-2) was released a lot of tape-2 clients were not only upgraded to X11R4 but have also undergone bug fixing and further development. Before you compile a client from tape-2 you should make sure that there isn't any newer version. -- Dipl.-Inform. Rainer Klute klute@unido.informatik.uni-dortmund.de Univ.
