David,
Out of interest, I have tried this and it compiles OK. However I think
that multi-threading is causing a problem with it. If I execute:
val shell = Motif.XtAppInitialise "" "HelloWorld" "HW" [] [];
val btn = Motif.XmCreatePushButton shell "hello-btn" [
Motif.XmNlabelString "Hello World!"
];
I typically get the following error:
Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x6c)!
On one occasion it worked. but when I carry on and do:
val _ = Motif.XtManageChild btn;
val _ = Motif.XtRealizeWidget shell;
nothing happens. The example program in the documentation has similar
problems.
I've added a call to XtToolkitThreadInitialize so that it now works.
I've tried the example from http://www.polyml.org/docs/Motif.html and
that seems to work now. Unfortunately this came too late to be included
in the 5.3 release. If there are bug fixes that should really be
back-ported to 5.3 I'll set up a -fixes branch in SVN and produce an
update to 5.3 with just critical bug fixes included.
Regards,
David
