My understanding is that a goal of IV is to keep the IV programmer working
exclusively at the object level and not do any direct X coding. Am I
prevented from it? Do one or more IV classes provide some analog to the
OLIT Stub, so that I can capture those mouse cursor movements using IV?
Nothing prevents you from direct Xlib codeing. While the InterViews design
provides an X independent level for programmers to work at, it is not difficult
to mix IV code with Xlib. I have done this on numerous occasions. The IV-X11
include files are accesable to the application programer in order to do this.
I am not familiar with the OLIT STUB widget, but you can use the InterView's
InputHandler class to respond to mouse motion.
