Re: gtk with cygwin
Hi Steven and all, Renaming the INSTALL file makes glib compile (it is found by configure even if it . is not in $PATH, as it is hardcoded in configure). gtk+ compiles without needing your patch... but perhaps it is needed in order to compile Gnome, as it isn't that I want i don't care for the moment.

RE: New xlauncher (was: Re: Success with Java prog in XFree)
Tim, How does this work, do I just make a package, and then email cygwin-apps? Is this valid for this sort of program, where it isn't even compiled using cygwin? I haven't had any comments on this program yet because, while it is a neat exercise and will be useful for other work, it will not be distributed with Cygwin/XFree86 until it is written in a language that can be compiled with a free software compiler, preferrably gcc or g++. The reason for this restriction is that we cannot have any barriers to entry that keep people without `Commercial Compiler of the Day' from contributing. When I joined the project we had a DLL that was compiled with MSVC++. I was told that it was impossible to avoid using this MSVC++ because the DirectDraw interfaces compiled in that DLL could not be compiled in Cygwin. Naturally, the first thing I worked on, and succeeded on, was making the DirectDraw interfaces compile under Cygwin without any MSVC++ compiled DLL. Eventually I see that either XWin.exe itself will have the functionality of your xlauncher, or we will have a stand-alone c or c++ program that provides the same functionality. Everyone here would greatly appreciate it if you would start working on a c or c++ xlauncher. Good luck, and thanks for contributing, Harold

That's a bit harsh. If you're following the main list, you'll note that there is a large effort right now to get libgcj and the java extensions to gcc working, in the default cygwin gcc package. If you can compile java code with cygwin's gcc, then java progs should be just dandy.

Using only the X server of Cygwin
Hi, I am not subscribed to this mailing list but I would like to give some feedback anyway. Please Cc: any responses to me. I am testing the Cygwin/XFree server to use it as a remote display for my Unix box which runs xdm: XWin -broadcast. So in the installer I choose to de-install All, and to install *only* XFree86-xserv. I noted that the installer installed a lot of things that are not necessary for that, such as header files, info files, terminfo stuff, static link libraries, xterm, sh, twm, etc. And it downloaded a lot more which it apparently did not even install, such as bash, diff, diffutils, fileutils, etc. I could also do without all those megabytes of fonts, since I have a perfectly ok font server, but apparently no way to specify it for the X server. I also downloaded xwinclip-test06, but that would not work because the X server refused the connection, and I could find no way to do the equivalent of xhost +localhost from its command line. So in short, it would be nice to have the installer *just* the files that are required to run XWin -broadcast, and nothing more. That would be the XWin.exe itself, the dlls it really requires, rgb.txt, fonts if no font server can be used, and maybe a few other files I am forgetting. All that doesn't need to take the current 63.263.779 bytes (32.158.116 bytes downloaded).

Re: Using only the X server of Cygwin
Hey, Nicholas -- don't squish Rhialto that quickly. He's probably one of our new users who knows nothing about the cygwin project except what he read on slashdot this morning. The fact is, Rhialto, we focus on cygwin -- as an environment all by itself, *and* independent of any specific intended use or resource availability(*). You have a specific setup, where you want to leverage you existing resources (e.g. a local linux-based font server) to avoid downloading extra stuff. You are an advanced (linux) user, with a very specific purpose in mind. That's not the target of the cygwin (or cygwin-xfree) project. It *IS* possible to do what you want -- but there isn't a super-simple one-click path to do it. [Think about user interface design: there can only be a limited number of 'easy' [one-click, two-click] configurations. We use those for the normal users -- folks who want the cygwin environment, not folks who want JUST 'Xwin -broadcast' and nothing else -- or JUST ssh and nothing else). However, it SHOULD be possible -- and checking the ml archives on this will help -- to create a custom 'setup.ini' script or pseudo-package that setup.exe can read, to install ONLY what you want -- but this will take a little work on your part. Again, check the archives. The basic thing is, setup is configured to install the 'Base' package by default (think Debian's 'base' category). Base is about 50Meg unpacked I think. Then, on top of that, there are certain things that the xserv program itself needs -- like libpng's DLL, zlib's DLL, etc. And it downloaded a lot more which it apparently did not even install, such as bash, diff, diffutils, fileutils, etc. These are all part of the 'Base' category. If you explicitly de-selected specific items -- even if they are in the 'Base' category -- then setup shouldn't even download them. There may be a bug in setup.exe's handling of the Base category. Sorry about that. (*) that is, cygwin-xfree should work OOB on a standalong machine without any external font server, at least by default. Do we really want a windows newbie to understand oh, I also need to install the fonts. Of course not -- we do that by default IF the user installs X. [Linux distros do this too, you know -- if you install XFree86 on Red Hat, you *will* get the fonts.] --Chuck

The default XFree86 install includes everything for running local X server and programs. More people want this than a minimal remote X setup. I could also do without all those megabytes of fonts, since I have a perfectly ok font server, but apparently no way to specify it for the X server. Add -fp tcp/other:7100 to the XWin command line.

Look, now is NOT the time for objc. It's too early. gcc-3.1.x is a MAJOR change from 2.95.3. Let's make sure the transition hasn't broken the frontends we CURRENTLY have, before we worry about adding more frontends. (IMO, this holds for java/libgcj, too) gcc-2.95.3: provides gcc,g++, and g77. gcc works in -mno-cygwin mode and regular mode. g++ doesn't really work in -mno-cygwin mode, but it does work in regular mode, with certain threading and exception caveats. g77 is regular only. gcc-3.1.x: Let's insure that cygwin's gcc-3.1.x still works in regular and -mno-cygwin mode. Ditto g++ (and since cgf already made changes to enable better -mno-cygwin operation in g++, let's verify that, too). Does g77 still work? The spec file has been totally rewritten. Can we still build DLLs? Does auto-import still work (technically a binutils issue, but that's been upgraded for the first time in eight months just now, too). How about exceptions and threading? Supposedly those are better behaved now -- is it true? What about raising exceptions from within DLLs -- cgf hinted that this probably won't work; also there's a recent binutils patch from Egor that should help with that issue but it hasn't yet been accepted b/c egor needs to fill out the assignment paperwork for FSF...PLUS egor has a cygwin kernel patch that USES his binutils patch...

Good grief, the first test release of cygwin-gcc-3.1 was ONLY released less than 24 hours ago. !! Test what we HAVE, before piling on with feature requests !!

I agree. The reason xlauncher is delphi at the moment is that the person who wrote the beginnings of it used delphi, and I have no experience with windows toolkits in other languages. I was hoping (in a way, a rewrite will be a bit of work :( ), that someone would point this out. What window toolkits are good, for what languages? I can code well in C, Java, and Pascal, and could probably pick up C++ OK :) I am still unsure of the implications of using a non-free compiler, and distributing it as GPL. I use debian, and would love to have xlauncher a DFSG free program. I would prefer that xlauncher, or a variant be installable via setup.exe, so it can be used by anyone. If it means porting/rewriting, I'll give it a shot :) (There isn't all that much code there, most is just writing to registry, and reading it back. Which is another thing, would it be better to use a config file rather than registry? Currently, I'm writing to HKEY Local Machine, but should be writing to current user, so that people with few rights on an NT style box can use it. If I were to use a config file, where to put it?)

With this option, when in windowed mode, you can resize the window (if you use decoration) and have a virtual screen bigger than your desktop (so now you can have a real 1024x768 screen on your 1024x768 monitor without having to go fullscreen, or you can have a 1600x1200 on your 320x200 monitor :) ). Harold, I left a comment in wincreatewnd.c (line 263 for me). At this place, you map the client area coords to fullscreen but you never use them. So either I missed something and I'm sorry for bothering you, or this is some left over from some old code that can be removed. Also, I didn't change the Primary FB since it's deprecated and you said in the contributor's guide that the Development of the Primary FB engine has ceased.

Cross Compiling
Yup, cross compiling is toroughly broken right now. It will take awhile to get it working properly. I'd appreciate it if anyone that is cross compiling the current XFree86 cvs would send in their host.def, any modification they made to cygwin.cf, etc. and their build command. Thanks, Harold
RE: [PATCH] -scrollbars option
Jehan, That is an excellent patch! I was just thinking that we should add this sort of functionality. Yes, I was reading the ./ posts too :) However, there are a bunch of ^M's showing up in the patch file for winwndproc.c starting at about line 496 (in the patch file). Could you clean that up and resubmit?

RE: xf86config patch
Alexander, I've merged your patch with my local tree and I'm going to try to test it tomorrow. Could you send me a sample and/or skeleton (containing commented versions of each config option) config file? Thanks, Harold -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Alexander Gottwald Sent: Saturday, July 06, 2002 3:40 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: xf86config patch Hi, after long time, I remade the xf86config patch. The diffs are made against todays cvs. The patch includes support for - reading /etc/XF86Config - setting the fontpath from the configfile - setting XKB settings from the configfile (foreign keyboard support) - setting rgbpath from the configfile I don't expect that I will ever support other configuration options, since the monitor, device and screen sections have no meaning for windows. For supporting the mouse section a huge change to the current has to be made and any settings can already be given on the commandline. A precompiled binary for testing is available at http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~goal/xfree/test-config-1/X-Server.tar.bz2 bye ago -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
Re: [PATCH] -scrollbars option
Why not just run the patch through d2u?

Incorrect version in packages names
Running setup to update my cygwin with setup.exe version 2.249.2.5, kde package versions are changed to strange numbers : kdelibs-2 appears for example as version 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-b1 in the 'current' field. Correct version is displayed in the 'new' field as 2.2.2-b1 In my downloaded files directory, files appear as : $ ls -l kdelibs-2* -rw-r--r--1 Nom 544 9168738 May 19 05:21 kdelibs-2.2.2-b1.tar.bz2 and in setup.ini : kdelibs-2 sdesc: basic libaries category: KDE-2-base requires: cygwin cygipc XFree86-base kde-x qt-2 pcre audiofile openssl xml2 xslt 2 libz bzlib2 version: 2.2.2-b1 install: kdelibs-2.2.2-b1.tar.bz2 9168738 ___ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse yahoo.fr gratuite et en français !
