Hi experts,
I using the PEX-SI server and the phigs API from MIT X11R5
on my SparcII. As you know the PEX-SI server does not support
- HLHSR_MODE
- no monochrome screens
- ..
Since some days we have installed MIT-X11R5 patch ..,19,20,21.
In patch 19 a new PEX library is included (PEXlib or PEX5 called).
1. Question:
How can I use that library ? What are the new features ?
Is there a PHIGS API available to this implementation ?
Does patch 19 changes my PEX server (or are there now 2 servers) ????
2. Question:
I am using PEX-SI and MIT-X11R5 phigs in an C++ environment
(on the top of InterViews [this is another problem. but now I
have a first version of a PEXGlyph]. To use the phigs-functions I
need function prototypes. For MIT-X11R5 phigs I found no prototypes.
Therefore I edited the file mit/extensions/lib/PEX/c_binding.
Is there s.th. similar for the new library (better for an API) ??
Thank you for any hint
