I've finally found time to start programming in the wonderful
world of Motif. A friend recommended the Marshall Brain
Tutorials (a great tip). I can't seem to get the first "Hello World"
program to compile... I'm sure it's some kind of setup problem.
(BTW, I can compile most other x programs except mxrn. The
only commonality I could find was mxrn also uses <Xm.h>.)
I'm running Ultrix 4.1 on a DECstation 5000. I loaded OSF/Motif
1.1. That MAY be the problem right there - I've read 4.1 is based
on R3 intrinisics while Motiif 1.1 is R4??? Any conformation on
that? What follows is the program and error message (same thing
happens with or without the commented lines):
Thanks in advance for and comments,

On DECstations, the Xt include files in /usr/include/X11 are for the XUI intrinsics. The Motif intrinsics (X11R4) include files are in /usr/lib/DXM/lib/Xt/X11 (DXV instead of DXM for VAXes), so you should put a -I/usr/lib/DXM/lib/Xt in your Makefile. -- Ken Lee DEC Western Software Laboratory, Palo Alto, Calif.

Motif 1.1 is X11R4. The third error signifies that the compiler does not know anything about XmResourceBaseProc. Probably because it is only found in R4 of X. Why don't you try *linting* your code before compiling it, you may get more detailed messages. (I always lint before I compile, saves me lots of time.) -- Philip Yzarn de Louraille Internet: yzarn@chevron.com Research Support Division Unix & Open Systems Chevron Information & Technology Co.
