Message-ID: <852564.47659.qm@web63013.mail.re1.yahoo.com> I'm trying to see if I can compile the plasma physics code xoopic (the non-commericial verion) on my personal laptop using cygwin-x. They have their own library of graphing routines called xgrafix which uses xwindows.?In their pub directory they also have?tar files that are just xgrafics distributions with test code.?I do scientific programming on unix systems for a living, so I figured that if I could get?xgrafix to?compile and execute its test programs on cygwin-x, then, I should be able get the full xoopic distribution to compile, perhaps?with a?little extra work. I ran the default unix configuration file just to see what it needs.? The only show stoppers were that it was looking for libX11.a, libXpm.a, libtcl.8.4.a and libtk.8.4.a.? The last two it pieced together from info in their respective confxxx.sh scripts.?? I quickly located the corresponding import libs for the standard cygwin-x system (I'm fine with the standard dynamic linking, this is for my personal use recompiling a static distribution is just too much like work for my purposes).? I believe the correct import libs for me would be:? libX11.dll.a, libXpm.dll.a, libtcl84.dll.a and libtk84.dll.a.? I seem to recall a couple of?other libraries that started with libtcl and libtk so correct me if I'm wrong.? When I just stuck in the absolute path name variables?to those import libs?in the configure file, which?overrides the tests, it found the import libs and?made Makefiles?that actually compiled, including?the test.c program.?Note that I checked the Makefiles and they had the right "-l" switches for everything.? (The fortran test?didn't?compile?but I can beat that into submission by myself, later.)? But?the?c?test?hangs when it runs, probably because?the resulting?Makefile?didn't link think the libraries correctly.? I tried a couple of variations editing the Makefiles, even using the actuall DLL.s as the libraries but get the same result. I've?gotten spoiled by having a support person?for scripts and makefiles and the like for the last several years and we don't generally use gnu compilers anyway so I'm not sure of the best way to proceed at this point.?So here are my questions: Question 1.) Currently it is building static archive?- xgrafix.a. Since I'm building a graphics library that links to the X11, Xpm, Tcl and Tk DLLs, do I need to compile it (xgraphics) as a DLL?? It might work either way but I'm fine with whatever works best. To wit, I found the following useful entry in the cygwin user's guide under "Building and Using DLLs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- However, if you are building a dll as an export library, you will probably want to use the complete syntax: gcc -shared -o cyg${module}.dll \ ??? -Wl,--out-implib=lib${module}.dll.a \ ??? -Wl,--export-all-symbols \ ??? -Wl,--enable-auto-import \ ??? -Wl,--whole-archive ${old_libs} \ ??? -Wl,--no-whole-archive ${dependency_libs} The name of your library is ${module}, prefixed with cyg for the DLL and lib for the import library. Cygwin DLLs use the cyg prefix to differentiate them from native-Windows MinGW DLLs, see the MinGW website for more details. ${old_libs} are all your object files, bundled together in static libs or single object files and the ${dependency_libs} are import libs you need to link against, e.g '-lpng -lz -L/usr/local/special -lmyspeciallib'. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If I make it xgrafix.dll, I'll probably use this as a?template so I get the import lib without having to run dlltool. But I find this a useful summary whether I make it a DLL or not. Question 2..) Whether I build xgrafix as a DLL or not,? do I just need the import libs to compile?(aside from the real library paths)?? That is, would I need to specify the actuall DLLs?as well?somewhere,?like in?"old_libs" above or in an absolute path name, to link the xwindows, tcl and tk DLLs I need? Or do I even need the import libs - would just the corresponding "-l" switches suffice? ? Question 3.) Since I'm?considering using the above command as a?template, I'm thinking I can just?use the object files I can already make?in the top-level (xgraphics routines) directory to make?a DLL?with the right switches.? Is that right?? What I'm assuming is that those object files don't know whether they're supposed to be linked to a DLL or staic lib, so I can just link them from the command line to make a DLL.? Please correct me if I'm wrong. Question 4.) This is sort of a repeat of question 2, probably.? When I make the test.c exectuable, do I need to specify anything (xgraphix specific) other than xgrafix.dll.a (along with its path)? Sorry if these seem?really basic to cygwin-x programmers out there but the documentation is a bit spotty on these linking issues.? I'd appreciate a little brief explaination of these issues.

I hate to sound ignorant, but that is just "how it works" for me. I sort of agree with Larry Hall's comment that there isn't some configuration switch. If an app has no icon associated with it then how is Windows supposed to know what icon to display. I don't see those icons for all apps, obviously, and I don't know wy some work and some don't. I don't think it's always been that way. It seems to me that I started noticing those icons a year or so ago, before that there was another icon, I'm not so sure it was the X, on all windows. But somewhere along the line some update caused them to appear. I should also mention that most (I'm not 100% convinced it is all, but it might be) of the apps that DO display icons are running on an actual Linux box, and Cygwin is simply the X-server. So it sounds as if perhaps most of the apps in the Cygwin distro don't have icon resources built in. But obviously, the Cygwin X-server is capable of passing those icon images to Windoze. --McD -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/ From raul@cantara.com Fri Aug 1 20:02:00 2008 From: raul@cantara.com (Raul Acevedo) Date: Fri, 01 Aug 2008 20:02:00 -0000 Subject: Window icons in multi-window mode In-Reply-To: <489354D7.1060202@cygwin.com> References: <44866.38.99.14.218.1217611795.squirrel@www.cantara.com> <48934983.6050008@cygwin.com> <003201c8f402$87e62ce0$14c8662c@Aidan> <489354D7.1060202@cygwin.com> Message-ID: <48879.38.99.14.218.1217620919.squirrel@www.cantara.com> > Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the intent of the > OP was to ask "Is there a configuration switch that one can throw to > see the X11 icons on the Windows frames?"

Cygwin DLLs use the cyg prefix to differentiate them from native-Windows MinGW DLLs, see the MinGW website for more details. ${old_libs} are all your object files, bundled together in static libs or single object files and the ${dependency_libs} are import libs you need to link against, e.g '-lpng -lz -L/usr/local/special -lmyspeciallib'. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If I make it xgrafix.dll, I'll probably use this as a?template so I get the import lib without having to run dlltool. But I find this a useful summary whether I make it a DLL or not. Question 2..) Whether I build xgrafix as a DLL or not,? do I just need the import libs to compile?(aside from the real library paths)?? That is, would I need to specify the actuall DLLs?as well?somewhere,?like in?"old_libs" above or in an absolute path name, to link the xwindows, tcl and tk DLLs I need? Or do I even need the import libs - would just the corresponding "-l" switches suffice? ? Question 3.) Since I'm?considering using the above command as a?template, I'm thinking I can just?use the object files I can already make?in the top-level (xgraphics routines) directory to make?a DLL?with the right switches.? Is that right?? What I'm assuming is that those object files don't know whether they're supposed to be linked to a DLL or staic lib, so I can just link them from the command line to make a DLL.? Please correct me if I'm wrong. Question 4.) This is sort of a repeat of question 2, probably.? When I make the test.c exectuable, do I need to specify anything (xgraphix specific) other than xgrafix.dll.a (along with its path)? Sorry if these seem?really basic to cygwin-x programmers out there but the documentation is a bit spotty on these linking issues.? I'd appreciate a little brief explaination of these issues.

I actually got it to compile by overriding the archive name checks in the "configure" file with their asbolute path names - I pointed it to the import libraries libX11.dll.a, libXpm.dll.a, libtcl84.a and libtk84.a.? I ran the configure script and made makefiles which compiled the?entire distribution, including test files that linked to the libraries.?

So I think the problem is that it made a static archive,?mylib.a, and the test programs tried to link to that.? I suppose that's a no-no under cygwin-x. I sort of expected this but I don't know how to fix it.? I tried?recompiling the?library as a DLL?in?its?/src?directory on the command line but it's not working.?

I still might also not be linking right to xwindows and tcl libraries but I *think* the linker did that right when I gave it the import lib files (eg, libX11.dll.a).? Is that all you need to do?

I realize I also need to make an import library also but I haven't even gotten this?far yet. Since?"make" did create?static libraries I thought it would be useful to examine the command lines it spit out to compile and link. Here's one of the compile lines that the Makefile produced gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG -I. -I/usr/inclde -I/usr/include -DXGTCL=\"/usr/local/xgrafix/lib\" -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -Wno-unused -g DDEBUG -DXPMENABLED -DTcl75_Tk41 -DHAVE_CONVERT -DHAVE_CONVERT -c xgxommands.c The rest are the same except for the source.? I don't know why it has two identical include options and two -DHAVE_CONVERT options but I assume it can't hurt anything. The linking lines for the main library (there were a couple of others) used "ar" instead of gcc or ld.? Here they are: ar cr libXGC250.a xgpaint2d.o xgpaint3d.o xgprint.o xgsetup.o xgcommands.o xginitvar.o xgpaint3d.o .... etc ------- nothing else but object files here. ranlib libXGC250.o I understand that this?will just make a static library.? Also it doesn't have any "T _" entries when you run nm on it, so I assume this means it doesn't have the right kind of table to make a DLL directly from the archive by just using dlltool.? I think the Makefiles are just providing a simple generic safe build that will work under most unix systems but won't under Cygwin.? I don't know if I'll be able to modify the Makefiles or configure system easily so I may just need to build it all?by hand. But at least there aren't?a huge number of?source files spread all over the place. So how do I change things so that I can make a library that I can run under Cygwin-X?? Unless?somebody knows of?some simple modifcations to the Makefiles I can make that will automatically build everything right, my best bet is probably to just do it all by hand.??Can anybody provide some advice on how to do this?? Should I try to convert the static library to a DLL, using the linker or the dlltool, or should I try to link the existing object files with gcc or ld, or should I?simply start from scratch, recompile the source code in gcc and then link?? Are my gcc command lines?shown above (the first ones - the ones I tried) missing anything important or including something they shouldn't???

The problem *might* be that Cygwin's tcltk package is actually GDI-based, not X11-based, unlike all other *NIX systems. The confusion between the X11 libraries and the GDI tk could very well be causing this. YA reason that our tcl/tk should be *NIX/X11 based; this is one of the things I would like to work on during the transition to cygwin 1.7. In the meantime, the Cygwin Ports project provides such a tcl/tk; you may want to try that and see if that helps. But please note that Ports has its own mailing list and is not supported here.

I'm?finally approaching sanity on my efforts to port xgrafix (part of xoopic, which is the main goal) to cygwin. I finally go the library object files to comple.? One of them used the prepocessor and there were some local .h files so all I needed to do was this, gcc -E foo.c -I./ -I/usr/include foo.o? on all the C files in the src directory. But it won't link because when I try explicity linking like this, (I'm going to try to make the library a DLL) gcc -shared -libXGC.dll -L/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -LXpm -ltcl -ltk {list_of_objects_here} or even when I explicity replace -lX11 by -l/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.dll.a, the linker complains(!!!) that it can't find X11 or /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.dll.a, repsectively My?initial reaction was, "What the hell!!!???"? Then I remembered reading in the archives that somebody else had seen what I believe is the?same problem in 2006 and solved it by pointing to /usr/X11R6/lib/cygX11-6.dll to resolve all the functions.?? It was?10:30 pm?and I'd promised my wife I wasn't going to be up all night working on this so I stopped at that point, but I'll?update?everyone?on my progress or lack thereof, tomorrow.? Meanwhile, I think this is, at least, part of the reason?why the build hasn't produced usable libraries and executable - when you run "ar" and then "randlib" it?doesn't resolve the functions in the link to the DLL so the build from the Makefile just blithely made a static *nix?archive file. The linker, will resolve the function dependencies, but it has to see an actual archive. But my?question right now is, what's going on here?? This has got to be a very well-known problem.?Am?I just missing something obvious??Is there a quick fix or a patch?? Should I make my own import library from this DLL and stick it in my source directory as a better solution?? Why hasn't something like this been fixed yet, or if it has,?do I need to modify some environment variable or?supply some missing command line options?? Will I need to also point Xmp to this library? (Although, I'll?probably?find that out myself easily enough.)? Once I try this libcygX11-6 fix, or whatever fix you guys might recommend, I'm going just try to link to the regular tcl/tk ".a" libraries to just see if?that works, since that's the only game in town unless I go get the xwindows versions from Cygwn Ports, as?Yaakov suggested earlier.? I'm just using the?cygwin?distribution from running setup (almost the entire distribution, though - I?added all the utlities, xwindows, scripts, tcl/tk and gnome, editors, graphics, development and some other apps?along with the defaults but didn't get a few of the optional?applications I didn't need right away)?at this point (except for?running rebaseall?it so it runs on Vista correctly).

It came in a standard tarball distribution with config and automake scripts set up for the expected *nix platorms.

Then it had only four remaining functions for which it has undefined references. One of them?looks ok in the source code?and will just take some digging to figure out why the linker is complaining.? The other three are external functions that are?declared in a header and invoked at a few places in some of the library functions?and that are expected to be defined by the user in?every application that?calls this library.? The original *nix version of this library was static, so this is probably a?trivial thing, in that case. But it won't link a DLL at this point with undefined references. I'm guessing there would be a problem even making a static library with the linker as well.? The original distribution use "ar" and then "randlib" to create the library.? That seems to be a pretty safe way to build a static library. This is more of C programming question than anything else, but, can you build a DLL?that uses?these sorts of absrtact external functions??I would suspect not. There a fortran interface version has the missing C function but it just redirects it a similarly named function declared "extern". In the sample fortran program this corresponding to a subroutine.? Unfortunately, when I try to link the fortran interface version it doesn't like the undefined reference to the new external replacement. But just in case, I tried explicitly casting them as "extern void" in the C files that had the problem originally.? As long as I was consistent with the headers, it compiled but it didn't resolve the linking issue.? So, is this a fools errand, or is there a way to handle these kinds of external function calls?within a DLL?? Would it be better to just link it as?a static library? I was trying to build it as a DLL because it used the X11 libraries and I thought it would either be necessary or more consistent with cygwin to make it into a DLL, but I'm beginning to think that might not be possible?(unless I rewrite the library so?as to circumvent?need for the external function calls in the library).? On the other hand, I also think people must do this sort of thing somehow, given all the ports to cygwin out there and the fact that this is probably a pretty common programming practice.?

The original *nix version of this library was static, so this is probably a trivial thing, in that case. But it won't link a DLL at this point with undefined references. I'm guessing there would be a problem even making a static library with the linker as well. The original distribution use "ar" and then "randlib" to create the library. That seems to be a pretty safe way to build a static library. | This is more of C programming question than anything else, but, can you build a DLL that uses these sorts of absrtact external functions? I would suspect not. There a fortran interface version has the missing C function but it just redirects it a similarly named function declared "extern". In the sample fortran program this corresponding to a subroutine. Unfortunately, when I try to link the fortran interface version it doesn't like the undefined reference to the new external replacement. But just in case, I tried explicitly casting them as "extern void" in the C files that had the problem originally. As long as I was consistent with the headers, it compiled but it didn't resolve the linking issue. | So, is this a fools errand, or is there a way to handle these kinds of external function calls within a DLL? Would it be better to just link it as a static library? I was trying to build it as a DLL because it used the X11 libraries and I thought it would either be necessary or more consistent with cygwin to make it into a DLL, but I'm beginning to think that might not be possible (unless I rewrite the library so as to circumvent need for the external function calls in the library). | On the other hand, I also think people must do this sort of thing somehow, given all the ports to cygwin out there and the fact that this is probably a pretty common programming practice. Anybody know whether or not, and if so how, you can get a DLL to link with externally defined functions in the code? If I follow you, you want to create a library that has undefined symbols which will be provided by a program linked against said library. The answer to your question depends on if the library is meant to be linked against only one particular program (probably coming together with the library), against any of a group of programs, and/or against another library. If the library needs to be linked against another library or plugin, you'll need to force this library to be shared, which may be possible but will take some work. If the library is meant to be linked against one particular program, a static library will be much easier, but a shared one is also technically possible. If the library is meant to be linked against any number of programs, then your only choice is to make it static.

But I'm porting this library from a *Nix distribution and the makefiles didn't know anything about cygwin initially.

I recently bought a new HP laptop with Vista, and I immediately installed cygwin. I had a few glitches but was able to figure out fixes for all of them but one: emacs just flat-out refuses to open a display window. This is the only program which has this problem that I know about so far. Everything else that I commonly use works fine. I've tried the following commands in an xterm, all to no avail: emacs & emacs -d :0 & emacs -d 0:0 & I don't get any error messages, but no emacs either. Emacs is installed, by the way. I can run it in the parent xterm window by emacs -nw but this doesn't work right either (it freezes up, the keystroke commands don't work right, etc.). Also, the phantom emacs processes that never open a window show up in ps. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling emacs, but no luck. I searched the mail archives and couldn't find anyone else who had seen this problem. Any ideas? ____________________________________________________________ Scan, remove and block Spyware.

Now I've re-run the setup program and I navigated to that screen with X11 at the bottom. The categories all have a little + sign and if I click it, they expand and give various sub-options.

It looks like this will be a lengthy process so in the meantime, can I ask another newbie question please...? At the moment, I'm starting Cygwin by using its desktop icon, This brings up a DOS window and (I'm assuming) that from within the DOS window I'll need to type commands - e.g. to start X and to run any program that I eventually want to run. Is that the normal procedure - or will I eventually get to the stage where I can launch an app directly from a desktop icon and everything else will happen automatically?

To run the app I (currently) have to start Cygwin (using its desktop icon), type "startx" into the DOS terminal (which opens a second terminal window), navigate to the folder containing my executable and finally type "./HelloWorld". Obviously this is all a bit convoluted. Is there a simpler way to launch my app - for example:- a) Double clicking on an icon, or b) Issuing some command (from a DOS terminal) that would launch the app - but starting Cygwin and X invisibly.

The idea is that it's the same as Linux. If you're having a problem, report it to the main Cygwin list unless it's intricately tied to X.

Cygwin is just a DLL. If you mean "start a bash session", there's no need to do that just to run an X program. You could* write a bash script along the lines of: -------- /path/to/runyourprog ------- #!/bin/bash --login checkx || startx exec yourprogname ------------------------------------- The --login should ensure that the environment is set up correctly. Then you can create a shortcut with a target of: C:\cygwin\bin\bash -c /path/to/runyourprog * This is very much a lame Windows-user type of thing to be doing. Xwin is a SERVER. It should not be started by running a client. If you were to ask a linux mailing list for a way to switch runlevel if someone tried to run your program without an X server, you would rightly expect the electronic equivalent of howls of derision. Why do you not just start X when you log on? If you'd rather not start X every time you log on, you only need to start it the first time you try to run an X program. Any properly written X program (including yours) should tell the user if it cannot connect to the X server, so if you get this message, you just need to run the server - once, then try again.

I should have explained that I only installed Cygwin this morning so I'm by no means up to speed with the concepts or terminology. Anyway, I managed to arrange Windows so that it now starts X at boot up.

Any ideas? X apps use a DISPLAY environment variable to denote which display they should attach to. It's possible that all that you need to do is add DISPLAY=:0 to your environment via the Control Panel->Systems setting. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/ From Phil.Betts@ascribe.com Tue Aug 19 09:44:00 2008 From: Phil.Betts@ascribe.com (Phil Betts) Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2008 09:44:00 -0000 Subject: Running a simple GUI app In-Reply-To: <001801c90162$3c627cc0$4001a8c0@mycomputer> References: <002201c90096$d9ada4e0$4001a8c0@mycomputer> <20080817183432.GB27383@ednor.casa.cgf.cx> <007901c9010c$6e7645d0$4001a8c0@mycomputer> <48A92A29.5050703@geographie.uni-freiburg.de> <008c01c90114$34fefe70$4001a8c0@mycomputer> <003701c9014a$c4bae480$4001a8c0@mycomputer> <5E25AF06EFB9EA4A87C19BC98F5C8753014BC665@core-email.int.ascribe.com> <001801c90162$3c627cc0$4001a8c0@mycomputer> Message-ID: <5E25AF06EFB9EA4A87C19BC98F5C8753014BC8E0@core-email.int.ascribe.com> John Emmas wrote on Monday, August 18, 2008 7:43 PM:: > Sorry Phil if my questions seem 'lame'.

You may also need to enable localhost to connect as well. Specifically: xhost + xhost +localhost You could also just do an xhost +, but that opens up your display to everyone, so I don't recommend it. You also need to make sure that X forwarding is enabled on the Windows side. There are a number of different ways to do this, but here's what I do to export the display of a Solaris app to a Windows machine: 1. (Windows) Open a Cygwin bash shell. 2. (Windows) Start the Cygwin X server and an xterm with the startx command. 3. (Windows) Allow connections to the Cygwin X server with the xhost command, as described above. 4. (Windows) Connect to the Solaris machine with ssh -X -l 4. (Solaris) (optional) You shouldn't have to do this because you used -X with ssh, but depending on the Solaris app you're trying to display on your Windows system, you may need to explicitly export the Solaris display; for example, if you're using a C shell: setenv DISPLAY :0.0 5. (Solaris) Launch your app through the ssh connection, and it should display on the Windows machine.

" winScreenInit - Monitors do not all have same pixel format / display depth. Using primary display only. " As an experiment, I tried setting both my monitors to 1200x1024 at 16-bit depth. XWin then launched and worked as expected. Curiously, I found that I can set my monitors to different settings AFTER I start XWin and it seems to be quite happy to carry on working. It just doesn't seem to like *starting* if the monitor settings are different, which is a pity. Armed with my new knowledge I decided to search Google. I'd always thought that I was unusual in having twin monitors running at different resolutions but in fact, it seems to be quite common. I found lots of comments about the same problem - though not all of them about Cygwin. Some were about a package (project?) called "comp.windows.x". I've never heard of this. Can anyone tell me if it's connected with Cygwin or is it something totally different?

Don't know about 64-bit versions. In my experience, there are a few catches to getting Cygwin to work on Vista: 1. Run the Cygwin setup as Administrator and in XP Compatibility Mode. 2. I had better luck when I did the install in two stages: First, I just downloaded the packages, then I ran setup again and chose the install from local repository option. 3. After installation, run Cygwin's rebaseall command from an ash (not bash) shell. 4. When you finally run the Cygwin bash shell for real, be sure to use Vista's "Run as Administrator" option. 5. Also make sure that your firewall is not blocking Xwin.exe or bash.exe. FWIW, the Xming X server works just fine on Vista, and you can use Xming as your X Server when running PuTTY or many if not all of the Cygwin X-based apps.
