1955.0. "version mismatch with widget" by DODO::MARTIN (234-4887 Northboro) Wed Dec 20 1989 11:20

When I use both DECwrite and Notes I get and error that states
a version mismatch widget 7001 vs intrinsics 11003.

I usually get the notes one when opening a note and the DECwrite
one when I go to print a document.

I scanned this notes file but did not find the problem. Because it
begins with an Xtoolkit warning and covers two totally different
products.

Thanx,

1955.1No problem for UTOX...HABS11::MASONExplaining is not understandingWed Dec 20 1989 14:057
    The UTOX conference states that this is an indication of a mismatch
    between the version of DECwindows linked with, and the one being
    executed with.  It further states that there is no actual problem
    associated with the message. Whether this holds true for all
    applications is anybody's guess.

1955.2NO PROB WITH APPLICATIONDODO::MARTIN234-4887 NorthboroWed Dec 20 1989 14:415
One thing I forgot to mention is that this problem creates an
annoying extra window that cannot be dismissed because they
only allow you to hold output or stop task.

1955.3Should be temporaryR2ME2::GRASSSteve GrassThu Dec 21 1989 14:436
The message can be ignored and will no longer appear once applications begin
linking against the print widget sharable rather than the OLB.  It means that
the widget was built against an earlier version of the Intrinsics than is
currently on the system.

1955.4It is even worse!RCOJDS::SHOWALTERJay ShowalterFri Dec 22 1989 08:5310
DECwrite is simply and annoyance, but NOTES gets blown away!

For any product developer who reads this, please make it a priority to 
get your products up to the newest Print Widget and do it in a way that
will be compatible in the future.  DECwindows and the products that run
under it are too good to be given a black eye by something as trivial as
this!

If there is a workaround, please publish it so that we can help our
customers when they upgrade to VSM V5.3.

If it's harmless, anyway, why is an error condition signalled when it happens?

Hi folks,

1) when I start up notes I get the following which previous replies have stated
can be ignored:

X Toolkit Warning: Widget class Svn version mismatch:
  widget 7001 vs. intrinsics 11003

However, when I choose "Modify print options..." in the "Customize" menu I get
this:


X Toolkit Warning: Widget class PrintWidget version mismatch:
  widget 7001 vs. intrinsics 11003

Any suggestions or pointers?

2) After poking through the saveset for NOTES020 I found that only the
executables are provided rather than including the .OBJ files and linking at
installation time.  Is this good practice?


Thanks,
Dave H.

Re: .6

I can answer #1 (I'm sure both points have been brought up n times elsewhere
in this conference):

The widget mismatch messages can be ignored.  They are due to the widget being
compiled and run under different versions of the Intrinsics.

You can't print using the version of Notes which you're running.  The new
version fixes this problem.
