374.0. "XGeometry accvio" by MU::PORTER (what's in a name?) Thu Mar 09 1989 23:57

    I've entered this as a QAR, but maybe someone here has some ideas.
    
    I get accvios from XGeometry if the input string has negative
    x or y offsets.  Strings with positive offsets work just fine.
    XParseGeometry has no problems with negative offsets.
    
    This is with VMS T5.2-40J, and whatever DECwindows comes with it.
    
    This program shows the problem:
    
#include <decw$include/Xlib.h>
#include <decw$include/Xutil.h>

Display *dpy;
Screen *scr;

static ww, wh, wx, wy;

main()
{
    dpy = XOpenDisplay("_WSA1:");
    if (dpy==0) exit(-1);

    scr = XDefaultScreenOfDisplay(dpy);

    XGeometry(
	     dpy, scr, "=10x10-0-0", "=100x100+100+100", 
	     1, 1, 1, 	/* bwidth, fwidth, fheight */
	     0, 0,	/* xadder, yadder */
	     &wx, &wy, &ww, &wh
	     );

    printf("x=%d y=%d w=%d h=%d\n", wx, wy, ww, wh);

}
