[comp.windows.x] XDrawLines bug?

bls@texhrc.UUCP (Brian L. Sumner) (03/02/89)

I've noticed if I call XDrawLines with a list of points like

   (x0,y0), (x1,y1), ... (X,Y), (X,Y), (xi,yi), (xj,yj), ...

only the lines from (x0,y0) to (X,Y) are drawn.  In particular, if
the list starts like

   (X,Y), (X,Y), ...

NOTHING is drawn.  Is this behavior documented somewhere?

No, because it should not happen (nor could I reproduce this bug on
my server).  Perhaps (as usual) it would help if you identified what
server you are using, and provide a small program to demonstrate the
problem.
