3277.0. "XUI problems porting to Ultrix" by ZIBBY::ROBINSON (Bill) Wed Aug 29 1990 13:52

Couple questions on porting a VMS application to Ultrix.
I'm running on Ultrix V4.0 Rev 179, displaying on a VMS
workstation with VMS V5.4-4G1.

1. What would cause all label_label arguments in a UID file
   from being displayed?  That is, my widgets (menu bar, pulldowns,
   dialog boxes, etc) don't have any labels in them.  This makes
   for very narrow pulldowns that highlight blank entries.
   I can set the values, but can't get them from the UID.
   The UID was compiled on Ultrix.  Is this a font problem?
   I'm not using any application default files.

2. Is there a list of differences - porting guide? - between dwt routines
   on VMS vs Ultrix?  For example, I found dwtopenhierarchy allows default
   filespecs in the 3rd arg on VMS, but not on Ultrix.  Are there others?
