* Revert changes to programs/dtsearchpath/libCliSrv/UnixEnv.C
introduced by c3cb5b8aa6
that could have produced disappearing Application Manager
icons on FreeBSD
* Introduce SearchPath:useSystemPath() virtual method to tell
dtsearchpath to leave some environment variables alone.
It is currently overriden for FreeBSD only if the MANPATH
is empty (system default). Other operating systems
might want to override it if they prefer to have distribution
specific control of a search path in effect.
* Symlink /usr/dt/share/man to /usr/dt/man for FreeBSD
This allows dtsearchpath to actually include /usr/dt/man
in the MANPATH when MANPATH override is in effect.
The dtexec code assumes that fstat reports pipe's readable chars.
Linux always reports 0 for st_size of a pipe.
Instead read one character when select reports readable.
Note EOF when select says readable but read returns 0.
- build shared libraries with major number only (libtt.so.2)
- don't build dtlogin and dtinfo
FreeBSD support for the installer:
- work around awk issue
- create post_install FreeBSD scripts
- install only cmsd on /etc/inetd.conf
skip dtspc and ttdbserver for now
Note to users: please check
if you are affected by awk bug
in udbParseLib.awk if you can.
Currently on Linux, you must run rpcbind in insecure mode (-i) in
order for ttsession to register with rpcbind (the portmapper). This
is because, on most systems, libc contains an older sun-based rpc
library embedded within it. The sun-rpc code does not know how to
authenticate with rpcbind when run as a non-privileged user.
Using libtirpc, ttsession can register with rpcbind without requiring
it to be run in insecure mode. You must have the libtirpc-dev, or
equivalent package installed to use it.
If you want to try this:
- install libtirpc-dev or equivalent
- if your rpcbind process is already running in insecure mode (-i
option), remove that option and restart it.
- edit config/host.def, (create if it doesn't exist) and add:
#define HasTIRPCLib YES
- rebuild CDE (make World). It's probably a good idea to remove
/usr/dt/* beforehand to avoid contamination.
Some linux systems seem to incorporate tirpc directly into libc (as
all of the BSD's do AFAIK) so this may not be needed.
I know that at least on Ubuntu systems defining HasTIRPCLib to YES is
required in order to run rpcbind without -i.
According to the spec, blank lines in message catalogs or lines
beginning with '$ ' are valid comments.
However, there were many cases where lines in the message catalogs
contained just a single '$', without the required space after it.
Under linux, this caused 126766 error lines (in my builds) of the
form:
... unknown directive `': line ignored
This also causes gencat to exit with a non-0 exit code. Even though
gencat says it ignores the line, it really doesn't.
An early porting change to programs/localized/util/merge.c was made to
ignore this return value on linux. This hack has now been removed.
Build logs are a lot smaller and cleaner now.
this means the compiler treats them as system headers and does not give you
excessive warnings from them. This is used because X11 does not like the
-ansi and -pedantic warnings that CDE is compiled with.
Having this dependancy in here is a problem. Depending on how the src
is packaged, or, unpacked, an attempt could be made to regenerate this
file, which cannot succeed unless imports/motif is setup to point to a
compiled motif tree.
This file can be manually regenerated by removing XmPrivate.h, and then
doing a 'make XmPrivate.h' in the include/Xm dir.
- Add missing includes and prototypes
- Improve type compatibility
- Use <Xm/XmPrivate.h> for unofficial libXm headers
With this patch, dtpad no longer crashes on startup
on FreeBSD/amd64 because of a truncated 64-bit pointer.
- Improve pointer/int compatibility
- Include unpublished Dt headers in Dt
- Use <Xm/XmPrivate.h> for unpublished Motif functions
There are still warnings left generated because
ElementValue.parsed_value should really be a union.
There are also some warnings left because of XtPointer
casting and some unused variables and functions.
We need ANSI C prototypes of certain Motif
functions that are not published in the official
header files.
<Xm/XmPrivate.h> header file contains
the prototypes extracted from the Motif source.
To re-create <Xm/XmPrivate.h>:
1) Make sure you have sources of libXm
(lib/Xm directory of the Motif distribution)
accessible via imports/motif/lib/Xm
2) rm include/Xm/XmPrivate.h
3) make includes
