I had a bit of trouble assembling the release because it turns out
that the auto* tools have changed their API in such a way that a
number of the shell variables that we used don't work any more.
Anyway - here's a (long overdue) release. Enjoy, and let the bug
reports, patches, ... come in.
Danny
<ul>
<li> Cleanup of the configure.in to remove some dead code and add a
couple of comments.
<li> <b>Remove support for building a Motif-1.2 compatible version</b>.
This only keeps generating problems for users, there's no added
value.
<li> Also remove support for building a Motif-2.0 compatible version.
<li> Work on the clipboard code to make it work with xclipboard.
Nedit and DDD users were reporting problems.
<li> Bugfix for drag and drop code.
<li> Get XmText to use the character width estimations described in the
documentation.
<li> A fix to the CascadeButton widget and gadget code for 64-bit
systems.
Lesson learned : using the wrong type can create havoc even on
dummy variables.
<li> XmClipboardBeginCopy() wasn't present in a 2.1 build. Fix that for
compatibility reasons.
<li> Changes to autoconf macros to conform to autoconf 2.59's new
requirements.
<li> Remove reference to <fontconfig/fontconfig.h>, they're no longer
needed.
<li> Prevent a crash in Form when no widget is passed but
XmATTACH_WIDGET is
specified.
<li> Fix from Herbert Xu to fix a long outstanding bug with nedit
modality.
(See patch #936869.)
<li> Fixes by Dave Williss to get XmString to cope with Unicode
in a limited way.
<li> Fixes by Dave Williss for the (Microsoft) Windows platform.
One of the consequences is that the macro XMLIBEXPORT is used in
many places.
On the Windows platform, we configure the build so this means
something to the compiler;
on others it is blank.
<li> Fix by Dave Williss for XmForm to cope with XtGeometryAlmost.
<li> Fixes for geometry in XmRowColumn and XmScrolledWindow.
<li> Fixes for memory problems detected by Purify.
<li> Fix for an off by one error in XmList.
</ul>
