wxWindows 2.0 for Motif installation
------------------------------------
- Prerequisites: Motif 1.2 or above, or
Lesstif (not yet tested).
- Download the files wx200gen.zip and wx200mot.zip, and
documentation in a preferred format, such as wx200htm.zip
or wx200pdf.zip.
- Make a directory such as ~/wx and unzip the files into this
directory. Use the -a option if available to convert the ASCII
files to Unix format. Don't worry about files being
overwritten: they should be identical anyway.
- Edit src/make.env to change options according to your local
environment. In particular, change WXDIR to where wxWindows is
found on your system.
Later, there will be a better makefile system
and/or alternate make.env files as per wxWindows 1.68.
Please feel free to contribute settings files for your environment.
- Change directory to src/motif and type:
make -f makefile.unx motif
This should make the library libwx_motif.a in the lib
directory.
- Make a sample, such as the minimal sample:
cd samples/minimal
make -f makefile.unx motif
and run the resulting minimal_motif binary.
Notes:
------
- Better installation and makefile systems are
required. I didn't use the wxGTK system because I couldn't
understand it or make it work with wxMotif. Also I think
we should use something that can be made to work easily
with applications outside the wxWindows hierarchy.
- Debugging mode is switched on by default. To compile in non-debug
mode, remove the -D__WXDEBUG__ switch in make.env.
- Some classes can be switched off in include/wx/motif/setup.h,
if you are having trouble with a particular file. However,
I'd prefer you to fix the problem and send the fix to me :-) or at
least let me know about it.
- Please send bug reports with a description of your environment,
compiler and the error message(s) to the wxwin-users mailing list at:
wxwin-users@wx.dent.med.uni-muenchen.de
