Some of these older files just clutter up things and do not contribute much information that is not historical in nature, so preserve them in an out of the way location.

THE PURPOSE OF THIS RELEASE
|
|
|
|
This is the second maintenance release for CDE and Motif 2.1.
|
|
It was designed to resolve as many defects as possible from the
|
|
project's defect database. This maintenance release resolves 423
|
|
problem reports against CDE and Motif 2.1.10.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Open Group encourages the reporting of all bugs found in CDE
|
|
and Motif regardless of the platform or hardware configuration in
|
|
which the bug is found. However, The Open Group will commit to
|
|
accept (and repair according to priority) only those bugs that can
|
|
be replicated on the current reference configurations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIIONS
|
|
|
|
This section describes how to unload the release archives
|
|
available at this ftp site, including information about how much
|
|
disk space is required.
|
|
|
|
The CDE/Motif 2.1.20 release is provided as compressed tar archives.
|
|
|
|
|
|
README-2.1.20 - this file
|
|
|
|
cde.tar.Z - a compressed tar file of the
|
|
CDE 2.1.20 source code
|
|
|
|
cde-test.tar.Z - a compressed tar file of the
|
|
CDE 2.1.20 tests
|
|
|
|
cde-test-misc.tar.Z - a compressed tar file of
|
|
test results for CDE/Motif 2.1.20
|
|
|
|
motif.tar.Z - a compressed tar file of the
|
|
MOTIF 2.1.20 source code
|
|
|
|
motif-test-misc.tar.Z - a compressed tar file of
|
|
test results for Motif 2.1.20
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CDE/Motif 2.1.20 release is in the form of a sparse tree; that
|
|
is, it contains only files that have been modified in either CDE or
|
|
Motif since the 2.1.10 release. If you are a CDE licensee you will
|
|
receive files for both CDE and Motif. If you are a Motif-only
|
|
licensee you will receive files just for Motif.
|
|
|
|
After ftp-ing the files to your machine, you should first uncompress
|
|
the compressed (*.Z) files with the command:
|
|
|
|
uncompress <filename>.Z
|
|
|
|
Once the tar archives have been uncompressed, you can untar each
|
|
with the command:
|
|
|
|
tar xvf <filename>.tar
|
|
|
|
This command will preserve the .tar file while unloading its contents
|
|
into your current working directory. If you wish to list a table of
|
|
contents of the tar file before actually unloading it you can do so
|
|
with the command:
|
|
|
|
tar tvf <filename>.tar
|
|
|
|
|
|
INSTALLING THIS RELEASE
|
|
|
|
This release is made up of a "sparse tree" of files that have changed
|
|
since release 2.1.10. The new versions of the files should replace the
|
|
corresponding CDE or Motif 2.1.10 versions of the files in your source
|
|
tree.
|
|
|
|
|
|
After the release is unloaded, you can use, for example, cp -R command
|
|
to copy the sources from the current directory into your source tree.
|
|
This release creates several new files. If you are using a symbolic
|
|
link tree, you will need to create new links for them.
|
|
|
|
Please see the Release Notes from 2.1 for instructions on building
|
|
a full release tree.

IMPORTANT CHANGES IN THIS RELEASE
|
|
|
|
Defect Repair
|
|
|
|
This patch release resolves 423 problem reports against CDE and
|
|
Motif 2.1.10. Each of these defects were resolved in one of three
|
|
ways: fixed (problem was recreated and repaired), duplicate
|
|
(problem was already reported and recorded in defect database),
|
|
or cancelled (problem could not be recreated in current code
|
|
base). The breakdown by component and resolution type is:

Test Improvements
|
|
|
|
Several changes were made for CDE 2.1.20 to streamline the
|
|
automated testing process. Included are necessary fixes in
|
|
order to significantly improve test performance times, as well
|
|
as to eliminate test hangs.
|
|
|
|
Specific fixes include
|
|
|
|
CDExc23856 deiconify tests have logic backwards
|
|
|
|
This was a legacy bug in QATS that caused many tests to hang when
|
|
doing an iconify/deiconify combination in order to force expose
|
|
events
|
|
|
|
CDExc23824 DtAction tests take extremely long to complete
|
|
|
|
Since X events were being processed once every thirty seconds, test
|
|
performance has been improved from overnight to twenty minutes
|
|
|
|
CDExc23843 dtpad tests need speeding up on the printing delays
|
|
|
|
When outputting characters to the screen dtpad was incorrectly
|
|
sleeping for one half second between each one. The performance
|
|
of this suite has improved from twelve hours to five hours.
|
|
|
|
BUG LISTS
|
|
|
|
In the release archive there are two files, OPENBUGS and
|
|
CLOSEDBUGS, which contain, respectively, the list of all bugs
|
|
from any version of CDE or Motif not yet closed, and all bugs
|
|
from CDE or Motif fixed in this patch release.
|
|
|
|
|
|
BUILDING MOTIF FOR YOUR SYSTEM
|
|
|
|
Since X11 is NOT being delivered as part of this release, there
|
|
are some minor changes in the build process for Motif with respect
|
|
to the build process described in the 2.1 Release Notes.
|
|
|
|
Replace step 2 under the Building Motif subsection of Section 3:
|
|
|
|
2. If you are building with imports (the default setup in site.def),
|
|
construct the necessary links as follows:
|
|
|
|
% cd $CDEBUILDDIR/motif
|
|
% mkdir -p imports/x11
|
|
% cd imports/x11
|
|
% ln -s <X11_bin_directory> bin
|
|
% ln -s <X11_includes_directory> includes
|
|
% ln -s <X11_libs_directory> libs
|
|
|
|
|
|
REFERENCE PLATFORMS
|
|
|
|
The Open Group has used a number of platforms during the
|
|
development of the 2.1.20 release. However, the following
|
|
reference platforms are the only ones where the complete
|
|
test cycle was run. Test results appear below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
CDE and Motif:
|
|
HP9000/7xx running HP-UX 10.20
|
|
Sun SPARCstation running Solaris 2.4
|
|
using the SC 4.0 C compiler and SC 4.1 C++ compilers
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes to X11R6.4:
|
|
|
|
CDE and Motif 2.1.20 have been built and tested upon a base of
|
|
X11R6.4 patchlevel 3. During the development of 2.1.20, a
|
|
significant defect in the I18N code of X was discovered. The
|
|
symptom is that when XMODIFIERS is not set, there is a possibility
|
|
of memory corruption. It is recommended that the following patch
|
|
be applied:

TEST RESULTS SUMMARY
|
|
|
|
Since this is a general availability release, it has undergone
|

the full quality assurance cycle. The cycle includes running the
|
|
following test suites:
|
|
