Someone here requested info on a table widget. I'd like some leads on that as well-- is it ftp-able, public domain, etc. etc. Thanks all over the place, --Dorothy Nelson ...!uunet!aspect!dorothy

I assume what is meant by a Table widget is one that handles an IxJ table of data in rows and columns with some behavior available to change column widths, scroll left, right, up, down, etc... If such a custom widget is available somewhere, I would be very interested.... Thanx also in advance, Jon Rosen

I would like to get a copy of the Table Widget mentioned in this discussion
list. Can someone send it to me or give me the address of a machine I can
FTP it from.
Thanks,

If you mailed a response >instead of posting could you send me a copy of any pointers. Has anybody successfully compiled the table widget on VMS with DEC's release of Motif 1.1? They seem to have a few pieces missing from the new libraries (which were around in the 1.0 libraries). I've been on the phone with DEC about it, but they haven't come up with any answers yet. Everything compiles since all of the definitions are there in the header files, but the following symbols are unresolved at link time: _XMBULLETINBOARDRETURN, _XMMANAGERENTER, _XMMANAGERFOCUSIN, _XMMANAGERFOCUSOUT, _XMMANAGERHELP, _XMMOVEOBJECT, _XMREDISPLAYGADGETS, _XMRESIZEOBJECT Other than this problem, the 1.1 release seems pretty good. I'm especially happy about the *shared* libraries -- it was about time. Aid. (adrian@gonzo.mti.com)

I asked about the table widget about 10 days ago. I have not gotten any responses. Does anyone know where to get the source for it? thanks in advance -Barry

According to the DEC support person I spoke with, it was OSF, not DEC, that decided the _Xm stuff should be private and undocumented. (Although I'm sure it didn't bother the DEC folks either.) He quoted me several sentences from an OSF statement which said that binary upward compatibility was considered more important than support for the undocumented routines. The statement went on to say that not only are the _Xm routines likely to change in future versions of Motif, but there were several such changes of significance between versions 1.0 and 1.1. I argued that a few of the _Xm routines were declared in non-private header files (traversal.h). The DEC rep said that this was probably an oversight and that the definitions would probably be moved to private header files in a future release. >Martin Brunecky {...}sunpeaks!auto-trol!marbru >(303) 252-2499 (sometimes also: marbru@auto-trol.COM ) >Auto-trol Technology Corp. 12500 North Washington St., Denver, CO 80241-2404 Aid.

They alreade have decided to sacrifize widget set extensibility to binary compatibility. As some _Xm routines will change ( disappear etc. ), this would make DEC shareable images incompatible between Motif releases. However, without the _Xm routines you can't even *think* of writing a subclass of a Motif widget ( well, I mean a real widget, not a demo used as a proof that subclassing is possible ).

A while back, when I didn't know I'd need it, somebody posted a table widget for motif, which as I recall, managed a set of alligned rows and columns (which ironically seems to be the one thing that the motif row-column widget doesn't do). In any case, if somebody knows of a public domain system on which I can find the source for the table widget, I'd appreciate a pointer. Thanks, Bob
