Hi,

Ok I tried posting this in the solaris group with no replies. So I
decided I'll
ask the C gurus.

First off, I'm a total beginner using xdesigner and solaris.

I'm using the Sun cc compiler Version 5.7 on Solaris 10.

I created a simple GUI using xdesigner version 7.7. After I generated
the C code, I tried to compile the main. I get many warnings and
errors that are similar to the ones below (I cut and pasted the last 4
errors because most of the compiling issues are similar.):


mach1# cc test_gui.c
mach1# ...
"/usr/include/X11/Xresource.h", line 352: syntax error before or at:
_Xconst
"/usr/include/X11/Xresource.h", line 352: Warning undefined or missing

type for _Xconst
"/usr/include/X11/Xresource.h", line 353: Warning undefined or missing

type for _Xconst
"/usr/include/X11/Xresource.h", line 354: Warning undefined or missing

type for _Xconst


Am I missing something like a library or definition for these header
files? If so, where do I find them?


Thanks,
Jay

Allow me to be the first to say this - and I say it from the deepness of my
heart, with all the kindness and love one has come to associate with the
helpful posts you get in this newsgroup:

Not portable. Can't discuss it here. Blah, blah, blah.

Sorry, your problem has to do with something system-specific, not with
the C language.

If you didn't get any responses in comp.unix.solaris, you might try
one of the comp.windows.x groups.

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.

Thanks for the reply,

If I can, ask one follow up question...

Does this mean when I use xdesigner, I need to generate my code in C++?

Thanks again,

Not entirely. At a guess, he's is missing a critical header which
defines _Xconst.

And the question of which header that might be is entirely
system-specific.

Sorry, we have no idea. That's pretty clearly not a question about C,
which is what we discuss here. It's probably not even a question
about C++; rather, it seems to be about something called "xdesigner",
which I'd guess includes documentation.

I tried asking a question once in a physics newsgroup, and got
no replies. So, I tried the same question in a a networking
protocols group, and they told me to go away, as it was
Off-Topic. Guess what is going to happen here?

They're all busy working on C.

We care not.

We care not. Portable, standard C doesn't care about the
compiler at all, unless the compiler is broken. If you think
your compiler is broken, call tech support.

There are no GUIs in standard C. There is no "xdesigner"
either. Is it commercial software? Have you contacted the
vendor?

> After I generated the C code, I tried to compile the main.

I usually compile source files. YMMV.

Very interesting. That is not a standard header, and my crystal
ball was dropped on the floor last Thursday, at which time it
shattered into a zillion pieces. It was especially annoying, as
I was barefoot at the time.

I can't guess what's inside, and even if I had that header on my
system, I wouldn't discuss it in this newsgroup.

There might be. Standard C does not forbid an implementation to use GUI
stuff for, say, stdin, stdout, and stderr.

Oh my. You're in one of those moods today.
