| Manju,
take a leave from the Westchester "country club", and come into the New York
City Jungle..:-) I made this work on a Sun 3/60 running Sun OS 3.4.
I am running Sun OS 4.0.1 now - and I am in the process of acquiring a
4/260 server to run X11R3. Sun OS 4.x.x is very flakey when it commes
to X11 (my observation at a customer site).
btw: I Don't have X11 on our Sun OS 4.0.1 yet, but I can help you install it
for your customer...including the load of XUI sources.
Telephone support though :-)
Kris..

Kris,
I really appreciate the offer for help. Makes me feel much better.
I know with your help I can really pull this together. I don't have
to build SUN OS/4 or X-11. I only have to build XUI on the servers
and stand alone workstations. This is for the XUI training that
is starting May Ist in NYNEX Science & Technology. If this flies
I will have many SUN trade-ins. We have already traded three SUN
workstations for DECstations.

| 508.3 | linking xui on sun | 30752::ALLUSTIARTI | | Mon May 15 1989 15:55 | 11 |
| I have built the xui sources on a sun system and I had no real problems with
that. The problem is that there seems to be an incompatibility between the
Digital supplied X11 and the MIT Release 3 X11. We wrote a simple program
and when we went to link it we got an error stating that XSelectAsyncInput
was not defined. Can we get sources for the Digital X11 or is there another
way to solve this problem. By the way this is for Northern Telecom because
they want to do their program development on our XUI. Any help would
be appreciated.

| The only time the XUI code calls XSelectAsyncInput is from an undocumented
XUI Intrinsic's interface. The only client that we have that uses it is GKS.
So, the error shouldn't cause any problems.

| I think the error is a problem (i.e. you don't get a runnable executable)
if Sun's unix is anything like ours. What I would do is make an object
containing an empty XSelectAsyncInput (and possibly XSelectAsyncEvent) and link
it in. As Leo said, this won't cause you any grief because the toolkit
references it in a place that hardly ever gets run.

This is software engineering?

This is not the only difference between DEC and MIT versions of X11.
see note 178.3 -
