[comp.windows.x] Xw

Has anyone ported Xw (patched for X11R3) to a DS3100 running VMS 5.1-1
and DECWindows? (We have them alive'nd kicking under Sun and Tektronix).

Let me tell how far I've gone:

(i) Xw used _XtPopup which is a global symbol under (most?) Unix system
    after building Xt for X11R3. Under DECWindows it is not.
    Cure: get the _XtPopup routine from the standard dist.
(ii) Problems with the linker.
    Cure: use /INCLUDE on all modules of Xw, just to be sure.
(iii) It compiles and links, however it crashes with the following
    message: "X Toolkit Error: No realize procedure for this class..."
(iv) Ok, so some class records such as described in Button.c,
    Manager.c and Popumgr.c have NULL for realize. As a quick guess
    we insert _XwRealize....and.....the problem remains...

Now what? I cannot debug the Toolkit to figure out which widget is causing
the trouble. An alternative which is tempting me is to port the standard Xt
to our DS3100...

Help? Many thanxs in advance.
