1 wxWindows 2.0 for Motif installation
2 ------------------------------------
4 - Prerequisites: Motif 1.2 or above, or
5 Lesstif (not yet tested).
7 - Download the files wx200gen.zip and wx200mot.zip, and
8 documentation in a preferred format, such as wx200htm.zip
11 - Make a directory such as ~/wx and unzip the files into this
12 directory. Use the -a option if available to convert the ASCII
13 files to Unix format. Don't worry about files being
14 overwritten: they should be identical anyway.
16 - Edit src/make.env to change options according to your local
17 environment. Later, there will be a better makefile system
18 and/or alternate make.env files as per wxWindows 1.68.
19 Please feel free to contribute settings files for your environment.
21 - Change directory to src/motif and type:
23 make -f makefile.unx motif
25 This should make the library libwx_motif.a in the lib
28 - Make a sample, such as the minimal sample:
31 make -f makefile.unx motif
33 and run the resulting minimal_motif binary.
38 - Better installation and makefile systems are
39 required. I didn't use the wxGTK system because I couldn't
40 understand it or make it work with wxMotif. Also I think
41 we should use something that can be made to work easily
42 with applications outside the wxWindows hierarchy.
44 - Some classes can be switched off in include/wx/motif/setup.h,
45 if you are having trouble with a particular file. However,
46 I'd prefer you to fix the problem and send the fix to me :-) or at
47 least let me know about it.
49 - Please send bug reports with a description of your environment,
50 compiler and the error message(s) to:
52 julian.smart@ukonline.co.uk
54 or the wxwin-developers mailing list at:
56 wxwin-developers@wx.dent.med.uni-muenchen.de
