2949.0. "X Toolkit Error: Couldn't find per display information" by DAVIS::peter (Peter Davis, ZKO2-2/M28, 381-0838) Mon Jun 18 1990 15:29

Does anyone know the meaning of the above error message?

I suddenly started getting it in the middle of working on debugging
some code.  I ran the program once without getting this message,
rebuilt it, and then ran it again and got this message.  However, I
DON'T get this when I run the program through dbx.

I've checked that DISPLAY is correctly defined, and I've even rebooted
my workstation, but I'm still getting this error message.

Does anyone have a clue as to what it is, or how to avoid it?  I'm
running Motif BL1 on UWS 2.2.

Thanks.

This is probably occuring because you're trying to use a Display
without first initializing it.  The "per display information" is an Xt
structure associated with an Xlib Display.
