We recently received a Personal Iris workstation and I am interested
in getting NeWS and C hooked together to provide a nice
user interface. I typed in one of the examples in the 4Sight User's
Guide (pages N8-10/11) and after fixing the few typos (in the manual!!)
I got it compiled. When I run it, ie a.out, nothing happens. Am
I doing something wrong?
On a related note... Does anybody have a WORKING version of
a demo that interfaces C and NeWS (using CPS) that would have
things like buttons,cycles,prompts, etc. I am trying to
port/rehack Sunview code that we have written. All I really
need is one tiny working example of each so that I can play
with it a little.... (I cannot ftp for any goodies, sorry).

All I really >need is one tiny working example of each so that I can play >with it a little.... (I cannot ftp for any goodies, sorry). I was able to get this working. The trick was to put -lbsd at the end of the compile line. I don't think that this is mentioned in the manual but it seems to be necessary. A problem I have been having is that I can't use -lgl and -lcps at the same time -- I get several pages of error messages if I try. I just called the hotline today so I may get an answer soon. Hope this helps! ---- Dan Christensen, Computer Graphics Lab, jdchrist@watcgl.uwaterloo.ca University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ont. jdchrist@watcgl.waterloo.edu
