744.0. "XDrawLine, XDrawArc etc. Where are they?" by PRSIS4::STRAUSS () Tue May 09 1989 10:29

    This may seem like a dumb question, but I'm still only a novice
    with DECwindows. The question is : where are the definitions, or
    prototypes for XDrawLine, XDrawArc etc. located.
    
    I carried out a search of all the files in DECW$INCLUDE:, but no
    success. Have I missed them somewhere along the way?
    
    Yours in desperation, Marcus.

    If you are using the VMS bindings, the definition file is:
    
    	SYS$LIBRARY:DECW$XLIBDEF.*
    
    [Where * is one of (BAS, FOR, H, MAR, PAS, PL1, or R32).  ]
    
    
    If you are using the MIT C binding, the definition files are:
    
    	DECW$INCLUDE:XLIB.H
    	DECW$INCLUDE:XUTIL.H
    	DECW$INCLUDE:XATOM.H
    
    The reason that you do not see the definition of the functions in these
    files is that the definitions are in the shareable image that you link
    to your program.  The file is:
    
    	SYS$LIBRARY:DECW$DWTLIBSHR
