[comp.windows.x.motif] X Toolkit warning

dbjoyner@eos.ncsu.edu (David Joyner) (04/03/91)

I am getting the following message from the X toolkit:

X Toolkit Warning:
    Name: workArea
    Class: XmForm
    Circular dependency in Form children.

The form widget contains a menubar, label, list, and rowcolumn widget.

Does the "Circular dependency" error come from how the widgets are
attached to the form or who the parents are? (the parent is always the
form in this case)

Please e-mail reply if possible.

	I think it should come from how the children are attached to
	each other; eg A has attachment to B and B has attachment to A.
	Form attachments only matter when the parent is a form.
