[comp.windows.open-look] Problems with xrolo, olgx and xview

kankkune@cs.Helsinki.FI (Risto Kankkunen) (04/12/91)

I'm having some problems getting xrolo, by Luis Soltero, to work. It
works on color displays, but dumps core on monochrome ones when some of
the buttons are pressed. This is discussed in the README file, which
suggests pathing ol_button.c from libolgx. I fetched olgx.tar.Z from
xview.ucdavis.edu. When I looked into ol_button.c, it was completely
different from the context diff appended to the xrolo README. I thought
to try it out, however. I made the library and then made xrolo linking
statically the libolgx.a and dynamically with our OpenWindows xview lib.
When I try to start the program I get "ld.so: call to undefined
procedure _olgx_draw_scrollbar from 0xddc9d2a".

What is going on here? I think the olgx library I got isn't new enough.
The version file says 1.1. I have looked at export.lcs.mit.edu and
lth.se, but there wasn't a separate olgx.tar, and the xview tars weren't
any newer.

My xrolo is version 2.0 patchlevel 5. I'm on Sun 3/60 and the OS is
SunOS 4.1.1. Our xview and olgx libraries from the OpenWindows look like
this:

-rw-r--r--  1 root        38996 Jun 27  1990 libolgx.a
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root        57344 Jun 27  1990 libolgx.so.3.0*
-rw-r--r--  1 root        41084 Jun 27  1990 libolgx_p.a
-rw-r--r--  1 root      1099226 Jun 22  1990 libxview.a
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root        18422 Jun 22  1990 libxview.sa.3.0*
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root       917504 Jun 22  1990 libxview.so.3.0*
-rw-r--r--  1 root      1210768 Jun 22  1990 libxview_p.a

PLEASE, reply by e-mail, as I don't currently have time to follow this
group. I will summarize here, is the problem gets solved. Thanks.

I had problems getting xrolo to work properly. The problems were caused
by my old olgx library and gcc. After getting the newer olgx from
xview2.tar, patching it and compiling with sun's cc, everything worked
fine. I didn't investigate why gcc didn't work (version 1.37.1).

Thanks to all who replied.
