[gnu.g++] InterViews under g++ 1.22.2

salzman@randvax.UUCP (Isaac Salzman) (08/06/88)

Has anyone been successfull in compiling the InterViews C++ graphics
library (version that comes with X11R2 contrib and patched with diffs for
g++ on prep.ai.mit.edu) with g++ 1.22.2? I have gotten as far as compiling
libInterViews.a and libgraphic.a (with many warnings), and even compiling
and linking some of the applications (i.e. dclock, alert, squares,
graphics).

NOTE: getting the libraries to compile required commenting out some code in
g++ (which did not exist in version 1.22.1) that did not allow a derived
class to access protected memebers of "grandparent" classes (i.e. C is
derived from B, B is derived from A, C can't access protected members if
A).

The applications were linked with libg++ version 1.22.2. Running any of the
applications resulted in displaying a window with nothing in it (just and
empty border)!

If anyone's gotten any farther than I have with this stuff, please
let me know!!! Anything that you could send would be appreciated (i.e.
diffs to g++ or InterViews, etc.). I'd especially like to hear from
the author of g++. Thanks!!!
