I am running Xaw and Xt in a multi-threaded environment (processes share a global address space, and code). It seems that many widgets in Xaw use their class initialization routines to install various resource converters in the default application context. If I create multiple application contexts, these converters don't get installed in the new application contexts, since the class initialization routines only run once (and only install the converters in the default application context). Is this a bug, or am I missing something? My work around to this problem is to have all the processes in my application use the same application context, however, performance is pretty doggy, since a single process ends up handling the events for all the widget instances. Is there a way to copy the converters in the default application context to a newly created application context? bob cohen wind river systems, inc. bob@wrs.com
