You can also ask your Sun sales office for a copy of the Catalyst catalogue.

Each time this file is posted, I get lots of requests asking for it.

uib is a user interface builder which supports building applications
|
|
that support both OPEN LOOK and Motif. It generates code for
|
|
ParcPlace's OI C++ toolkit and can make use of user created
|
|
subclasses. Note: `OI' can also display an OSF/Motif GUI at runtime.

|
|
Lets you write portable code by providing a thin layer API which sits
|
|
on top of the native GUI toolkit. Write your application in this
|
|
abstracted GUI and the toolkit translates into native GUI calls on
|
|
OPEN LOOK, Motif, Microsoft Windows, NT, Macintosh, OS/2, and
|
|
character terminals. Includes GUI builder for XVT C toolkit or XVT C++
|
|
class library. XVT is the base document for the emerging IEEE 1201.1
|
|
Uniform (GUI) API standard.
|
|
Note:
|
|
It's been said on the net that XVT provides a common subset of the various
|
|
systems, with limited functionality, but I don't know how limited it is --
|
|
the best answer is probably to look and see if it meets your needs.

Ada bindings for XView
|
|
Sun Ada 1.1 includes among other things an Ada Source Code Generator
|
|
for Devguide. It uses the Verdix XView Ada bindings.
|
|
It does not yet [July 1992] support gfm (the guide file manager).

Sun: SPARC, Solaris 2 (actually 3.0.1?)
|

others: none so far...
|

|
|
There are said (by Sun) to be two or three ports of OpenWindows either
|
|
available now or in progress. Contact Anthony Flynn at Open Vistas
|
|
International (anthony@ovi.com) for more information. (originally they
|
|
said 35, but perhaps they meant 3.5)
|
|
|
|
OpenWindows source is available - commercially, it costs about $5,000 for
|
|
the server, including TypeScaler and the toolkits; deskset (filemgr etc) is
|
|
another $25,000; ToolTalk is $40,000 or so.

Let me stress that this is *not* fully tested, but seems to work

pretty well. Please let me know about any problems you find.
|
|
Problems I already know about:
|
|
Large buttons under *any* non-Sun X server (non-xnews; i.e. any
|
|
standard MIT X11R[45] server) have the bottom of the button
|
|
chopped off. We're working on this one. :-)
|
|
XView 3 is also available on the DEC Freeware CD, from DECUS.
|
|
[actually this seems *not* to be Dave Scott's port; please accept my apologies

for listing this incorrectly. A correct entry will appear as soon as I get

the necessary information. -- Lee]

|
Notes:
|
|
This is **NOT** the usual HP Archive at Liverpool; this port of XView3.2
|
|
doesn't follow the usual conventions that apply to packages which are
|
|
available on that archive.
|
|
|
|
This port uses modified copies of the files
|
|
/usr/include/X11R5/X11/Xlib.h and /usr/include/X11R5/X11/Xlibint.h
|
|
The files as supplied by HP are not touched but it is possible
|
|
that a new version of the HP X server might break the port.
|
|
|
|
Some contributed clients are also included.

Subject: XView 2 Ports
|
|
|
|
In general, there is no point in using XView 2 if you have XView 3 available;
|
|
it's a good idea to look for an XView 3 port first. Moving from XView 2 to
|
|
XView 3 is usually simply a matter of recompiling, unless you've done
|
|
"dirty tricks" or used undocumented calls.
