I have QAR'd the following. The Ada package is incorrect.
The following is from DECW$DWT_.ADA.
With the VAX bindings from Ada ARGCOUNT and ARGVALUE have little meaning
since these are command line parameters.
ARGCOUNT is passed by reference and therefore a 0 (zero) cannot be used
here without causing an Access Violation. Modified it to look like the
call to Xt_Initialize which does work.
Was...
procedure XT_OPEN_DISPLAY (
RESULT : out DISPLAY_TYPE; -- return value
APPLICATION_CONTEXT : in APP_CONTEXT_TYPE;
DISPLAY_NAME : in STRING;
APPLICATION_NAME : in STRING;
CLASS_NAME : in STRING;
URLIST : in UNSIGNED_LONGWORD_ARRAY;
URCOUNT : in CARDINAL_TYPE;
ARGCOUNT : in CARDINAL_TYPE;
ARGVALUE : in ADDRESS_ARRAY);
Should be...
procedure XT_OPEN_DISPLAY (
RESULT : out DISPLAY_TYPE; -- return value
APPLICATION_CONTEXT : in APP_CONTEXT_TYPE;
DISPLAY_NAME : in STRING;
APPLICATION_NAME : in STRING;
CLASS_NAME : in STRING;
URLIST : in UNSIGNED_LONGWORD_ARRAY;
URCOUNT : in CARDINAL_TYPE;
>>> ARGCOUNT : in out CARDINAL_TYPE;
>>> ARGVALUE : in ADDRESS_ARRAY := ADDRESS_ARRAY'NULL_PARAMETER);

Re: .0 The QAR is what is necessary to get the problem fixed. It looks as if you have the right solution. The Ada bindings were largely derived automatically from the SDL sources provided by the DECwindows developers. Many errors were found during the development process. It's not surprising to me that a few slipped by. Thanks for reporting the problem. Steve | |||||
