Is there anyone out there who can either send me the latest HP widgets or make them available for uucp? If not, is there an offical distribution method? Thanks in advance. John Young AT&T-BL. 201-615-4412

a few questions: 1) what is the 'latest' version of HP widgets and how do I know if I have it ? 2) is there a mailing list for HP widget users? wanna start one? I'll volunteer to host the list.... -- Don't you think that Mahitabel is a bit too toujour gay? - Archie ...{decwrl|ucbvax}!imagen!atari!daisy!turner (James M. Turner) Daisy Systems, 700 E.

There currently isn't an explicit list for users of the HP widgets. Generally, we try to let discussions start on one of the main lists (xpert in this case) and then make a new list if the traffic starts getting heavy. Jim Fulton MIT X Consortium

This has probably been asked before, but how does one deal with the HP widgets? I believe I have the latest patches (Xhp.patch.works), and there is an Xt directory with some Intrinsic stuff in it. Does one replace the standard Xt files with these? _____________________________________ Brian V. Smith (bvsmith@lbl.gov) Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory We don't need no stinking signatures!

We have worked with H-P workstations using hp widgets (Manual Port Number 5959-6155 (6th July 1988). At this moment we want to transfer the application to another hardware. We have got hp widgets sources by the MIT Release III cartridge (version 9 August 1988) and have observed these problems: -. There is not XwPulldown Widget. -. There is not Shadow in Widgets. *** We would like the sources of the hp widgets that we had used before *** We would lide to know the reasons of these changes with restrictions. *** We would like to know if there are more restrictions. thanks for all.

Would some kind soul e-mail me instructions for obtaining the latest version of the HP Widget set, including docs? We don't seem to have it anywhere around here.

The sources to the widget set with shadowing is not part of MIT Release 3 set. HP Legal decided to keep the "3-D" aspects of the HP widget set proprietary. You might be able to license the source from HP directly -- talk with them. The XwPulldown widget uses an Apple Patent that HP licensed specifically. HP could not include this widget in the PD release without violating their license agreement with Apple. And they are already in enough trouble with Apple :-) There is a whole story around these decisions, but basically it comes down to this. HP product is not the same as PD MIT versions. There is no way to get the delta to bring the MIT versions up to HP product specs without licensing source from HP. Good Luck. -- +----------------------+----------------------------+-------------------------+ | Scott Boyd | "Still searching for an | Commodity Futures, Inc. | | scott@futures.UU.NET | appropriate silly quote" | Woodside, California | +----------------------+----------------------------+-------------------------+

Where can I get the sources for the Hp Widget Set, Xw? I can FTP, but would prefer to send a tape or order a tape. I am using a DECstation 3100 if that makes a difference.

Can somebody tell me where the latest version of HP widgets is archived? I need it really badly. Also, I am having problems with the ScrollBar widget. I am using is to display images, and I have an SRaster widget as the child of the ScrollBar widget. When the static raster is smaller than or equal to the Scrollbar window, and I click on the arrows, I get a seg fault, core dump. I suspect the problem is linked with the version of HP widgets I have. I dont get the core dump when I use the slide bar. The info I get from dbxing on the core is main() XtMainLoop() XtDispatchEvent() DispatchEvent() _XtTranslateEvent() Arrow.Select() XtCallCallbacks() _XtCallCallbacks() XwArrowReleaseCallback() | Note that it is failing here, XtRemoveTimeOut() | on XtRemoveTimeOut(). My env is a vaxstation 3100 running Ultrix 3.1, and I compiled the HP widget library with the header files in <mit/X11>. harish pu. hi. harish@ecelet.ncsu.edu harish@ecebucolix.ncsu.edu

Yes, dump the -O option to cc and it will compile fine (I told DEC
about that one around 3 months ago, after trying to bring up the HP
widgets on our 3100s, I don't know if there is a fix).

I was referred to this newsgroup about the following: I'd like to know if the HP widgets for X windows is pd or not, and if so is there an ftp source for it. I believe it's contained in Xw.h.
moraes@cs.toronto.edu (Mark Moraes) (08/16/90)
You can get a version of the HP widgets that works with R3/R4 from contrib/toolkits/Xw in the R4 distribution, or as Xw.tar.Z from your friendly neighbourhood X archive site. (consult the Frequently Asked Questions for a list of archive sites)
