This error prevent me to use Xcircuit with a large project. So there is real need to update the XCircuit to latest version to fully enjoy the software. I installed Cygwin and compiled my own Tcl/Tk as your described in your "XCircuit-Cygwin compile and install" instruction. But I got an error like this when I tried to make xcircuit: elements.c: In fucntion 'boxeditadjust': elements.c:1623:error:'XCWindowData' has no member named 'boxedit' I really don't know how to fix this error to continue build my own XCircuit. Would it be possible to compile a native XCircuit for windows and upload it to SourceForge? I would love to do that, the only problem is that I don't know how and have no clue where to start. Thanks a lot!
Hi Ruida, I can provide a bit more updated instructions on Xcircuit on Cygwin. It has become a lot easier now that Cygwin-ports provides a good X11 Tcl/Tk. I am writing this from memory, so please excuse me if some detail is missing. Please follow instructions on http://sourceware.org/cygwinports/ to install the X11 Tcl and Tk packages version 8.5 . The version 8.4 packages from the main Cygwin repository use the Windows API. Cygwin package management is very basic and sometimes does not detect the conflict between the two packages. Please ensure the 8.4 Windows version removed before installing the 8.5 X11 version. After that the regular ./configure && make && make install should work.
