GDB 4.1 handles shared libraries better, in that it automatically finds them; you still have to use the "sharedlibrary" command to load up the symbol tables for stuff loaded up by "dlopen()" - "sharedlibrary", with no arguments, appears to find every shareable object that's been "dlopen()"ed since the last time it checked, and read its symbols in. There is a bug in GDB 4.1 where it doesn't set the "end of text" address in the "partial symbol table" entry for a shareable object correctly; it relocates the *beginning of text* address to put it where the object was actually loaded, but not the end of text address. One consequence of this is that you can't always (can't ever?) step into a routine in a "dlopen()"ed shareable object. The following patch appears to fix that (and has been sent to "bug-gdb"): *** dbxread.c.dist Fri Sep 20 23:47:25 1991 --- dbxread.c Mon Sep 30 18:20:27 1991 *************** *** 1708,1714 **** #ifdef END_OF_TEXT_DEFAULT end_of_text_addr = END_OF_TEXT_DEFAULT; #else ! end_of_text_addr = text_addr + text_size; #endif symtab_input_desc = desc; /* This is needed for fill_symbuf below */ --- 1708,1714 ---- #ifdef END_OF_TEXT_DEFAULT end_of_text_addr = END_OF_TEXT_DEFAULT; #else ! end_of_text_addr = text_addr + addr + text_size; /* Relocate */ #endif symtab_input_desc = desc; /* This is needed for fill_symbuf below */ Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po5.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Wed, 2 Oct 1991 11:41:02 -0400 (EDT) Received: from po2.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Wed, 2 Oct 1991 11:38:09 -0400 (EDT) Received: from att.att.com by po2.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id for info-andrew; Wed, 2 Oct 91 11:37:45 EDT From: mtgzy!mtgzfs3!mtgzy!leeper@att.att.com Received: from mtgz055.gazelle.att.com by mtgzfs3.att.com (4.1/SMI-4.0) id AA24035; Wed, 2 Oct 91 11:32:43 EDT Received: from Messages.7.15.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.mtgz055.gazelle.att.com.sun4. 41 via MS.5.6.mtgz055.gazelle.att.com.sun4_41; Wed, 2 Oct 1991 11:32:42 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: Date: Wed, 2 Oct 1991 11:32:42 -0400 (EDT) Original-From: M R Leeper To: info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu Subject: AMS captions searching problem The latest release of AMS seems to have a problem searching captions. It does not seem to be able to find a caption if that caption has not been revealed since I have switched into a mailbox. For example I can switch into a folder in which a I have many pieces from a given address. If I do a reverse search on that persons name I will find the two or three pieces of mail that already have the captions revealed, but then further reverse searching fails. If I scroll back revealing more captions from this person, then reverse searching seems to find those but starts failing at the furthest point I scrolled back to. Is this just a problem at this site. Have other people noticed it? Am I misinterpretting how searching should work? Mark R.

The captions code includes a "virtual scroll bar" that lets you scroll backwards through the captions without retreiving them all first -- it retrieves them as needed. Things that need to go back, like reverse searching, first call a routine that basically says "fill in all the old captions -- never mind the 'virtual' part." A bug like the one you describe would have been introduced if someone changed it to be calling textview_ReverseScroll (or whatever it is called) instead of captions_ReverseScroll (or whatever it is called). Did anyone at the ITC play with these functions in the latest release? That would almost certainly account for the bug... -- Nathaniel Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Thu, 3 Oct 1991 09:54:28 -0400 (EDT) Received: from po3.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Thu, 3 Oct 1991 09:51:21 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: Received: from citadel.ifs.umich.edu by po3.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id for info-andrew; Thu, 3 Oct 91 09:51:11 EDT Received: by ifs.umich.edu; Thu, 03 Oct 91 09:49:51 -0400 Date: Thu, 03 Oct 91 09:49:48 -0400 From: Jonathan Buckheit Subject: Andrew Installation To: info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu My build in pobbconf seems to be hanging on an awk: (file pobb-install.msh) echo "startup" | awk -f config.awk.msh > startup.awkout startup.awkout never seems to get changed when I "ls -l."

The original problem was that when people printed a lot of mesages, and ezprint was started immediately for each one, each one generated (on CMU printers) its own cover sheet. This was incredibly wasteful -- the typical message was one page, so it doubled the paper use. So, I implemented a messages-to-print queue. When Messages queues things for printing, it just writes them somewhere (~/.MS.ToPrintMumble..). Then, periodically, if there are things in that queue, it prints them. This means that if you print 10 messages in rapid succession, they'll print as a single job with a single cover sheet. Now, when does this happen? Oh, whenever. Seriously, there are several options that can control this, notably CheckpointFrequency. One option even turns off delayed printing altogether, reinstating the paper-wasting but immediate printing behavior (and perfectly suitable if your printer doesn't generate cover sheets anyway). I don't remember for sure, but that's something like "*.DelayPrinting: no". Before you take that drastic a step, however, why not consider doing what I do: In general, live with the delays, but if you ever need the printouts urgently, type the following to the UNIX shell: cui quit This starts the cui program, the dumb-terminal interface to AMS, but immediately exits it. One of the thing its exit-procressing does is to kick any pending print requests to the printer. Thus you can use it as an "empty the AMS print queue" command if you're so inclined. Hope that helps. -- Nathaniel Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 602;andrew.cmu.edu;Adam Stoller Received: from commander.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Fri, 4 Oct 1991 11:40:13 -0400 (EDT) If-Type-Unsupported: send Received: from commander.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Fri, 4 Oct 1991 11:38:45 -0400 (EDT) Received: from Messages.7.15.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.commander.andrew.cmu.edu.rs.a ix31 via MS.5.6.commander.andrew.cmu.edu.rs_aix31; Fri, 4 Oct 1991 11:38:44 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: Date: Fri, 4 Oct 1991 11:38:44 -0400 (EDT) From: Adam Stoller X-Andrew-Message-Size: 1063+0 Content-Type: X-BE2; 12 To: Info-Andrew Subject: Re: slow printing from messages CC: Bob_Dew@alw.nih.gov In-Reply-To: References: Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po5.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Fri, 4 Oct 1991 12:05:39 -0400 (EDT) Received: from po3.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Fri, 4 Oct 1991 12:03:35 -0400 (EDT) Received: from thumper.bellcore.com by po3.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id for info-andrew; Fri, 4 Oct 91 12:03:26 EDT Received: from greenbush.bellcore.com by thumper.bellcore.com (4.1/4.7) id for info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu; Fri, 4 Oct 91 12:03:15 EDT Received: by greenbush.bellcore.com (4.1/4.7) id for Bob_Dew@alw.nih.gov; Fri, 4 Oct 91 12:03:13 EDT Received: from Messages.7.14.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.greenbush.galaxy.sun4.40 via MS.5.6.greenbush.galaxy.sun4_40; Fri, 4 Oct 1991 12:03:10 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <4cv92yS0M2Yt8YijEo@thumper.bellcore.com> Date: Fri, 4 Oct 1991 12:03:10 -0400 (EDT) From: Nathaniel Borenstein X-Andrew-Message-Size: 262+0 Content-Type: X-BE2; 12 If-Type-Unsupported: send To: Info-Andrew Subject: Re: slow printing from messages Cc: Bob_Dew@alw.nih.gov In-Reply-To: References: , Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 1447;andrew.cmu.edu;Gary Keim Received: from po2.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Fri, 4 Oct 1991 12:42:48 -0400 (EDT) If-Type-Unsupported: send Received: from rascal.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Fri, 4 Oct 1991 11:50:38 -0400 (EDT) Received: from Messages.7.15.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.rascal.andrew.cmu.edu.rs.aix3 1 via MS.5.6.rascal.andrew.cmu.edu.rs_aix31; Fri, 4 Oct 1991 11:50:37 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: Date: Fri, 4 Oct 1991 11:50:37 -0400 (EDT) From: Gary Keim X-Andrew-Message-Size: 1060+0 Content-Type: X-BE2; 12 To: Info-Andrew Subject: Re: slow printing from messages CC: Bob_Dew@alw.nih.gov In-Reply-To: References: Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po2.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Sun, 6 Oct 1991 14:13:51 -0400 (EDT) Received: from po3.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Sun, 6 Oct 1991 14:11:09 -0400 (EDT) Received: from IBM.COM by po3.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id for info-andrew; Sun, 6 Oct 91 14:10:49 EDT Received: from RCHLAND by IBM.COM (IBM VM SMTP R1.2.1MX) with BSMTP id 3277; Sun, 06 Oct 91 11:11:56 PDT Reply-To: "Wayne Richardson" Received: by po1.rchland.ibm.com (5.51/4.7) id for info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu; Sun, 6 Oct 91 12:32:30 CDT Received: via switchmail; Sun, 6 Oct 1991 12:32:28 -0500 (CDT) Received: from borg.rchland.ibm.com via qmail ID ; Sun, 6 Oct 1991 12:32:00 -0500 (CDT) Received: from borg.rchland.ibm.com via qmail ID ; Sun, 6 Oct 1991 12:31:58 -0500 (CDT) Received: from Messages.7.15.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.borg.rchland.ibm.com.rs.aix31 via MS.5.6.borg.rchland.ibm.com.rs_aix31; Sun, 6 Oct 1991 12:31:57 -0500 (CDT) Message-Id: Date: Sun, 6 Oct 1991 12:31:57 -0500 (CDT) From: Wayne D Richardson To: Info-Andrew Subject: Inaccurate folder clicking In messages, If your mouse click is more than about 3 pixels below the bottom entry in the folders window, you get the "What do you want to do with ...?" dialog box instead of the folder contents.

Site Description Sun Sparcstation 2 (server) SunOS 4.1.1 X11R4 Andrew @ patchlevel 10 Student Laboratories populated with Xterminals. 1. Printing Is it possible to change the name of the temporary file used during the format->print pipe from /tmp/%s.n to something more unique (e.g. /tmp/%s..n)? This is essential in an Xterminal environment. 2. Menu Pointer Could somebody point me to the code that displays the arrow when the cascading menus appear? It is appearing in reverse video on our Xterminals which causes no end of confusion since a white arrow on a white background is quite "traumatic" for users. I am assuming that it is displayed using GXor which apparently is slightly buggy in the X server on our Xterminals but can be tweaked to give correct output (so I'm told anyway). 3. Groff for printing I have currently configured andrew to use groff to print documents from ez,eq and table. It doesn't appear to handle encapsulated PostScript however which is necessary when printing zip figures (and rasters I guess). I seem to remember somebody coming up which a script (possibly in perl) which allowed groff to print zip figures. Any info would be appreciated.

Why? Because the captions and folders views are just subviews of textview, and they leave all the low-level mouse analysis to textview. They then look to see where "dot" has been put, and use that to figure out what to do. In this case, if you click a few pixels below the last visible entry, textview seems to decide that the hit actually appeared somewhere else. (You may notice it has the wrong folder name in the dialog box often, too!) I can't swear this is right, because I haven't looked at the code for years, and right now I'm using CUI over a slow-bandwidth link, but my recollection is that this is basically a textview problem.

[WARNING: Self-serving reply follows] If you're interested in Andrew *programming* (as opposed to just using the tools, which is what most people are interested in) there's the following: Multimedia Applications Development with the Andrew Toolkit by Nathaniel S. Borenstein (ahem) Prentice-Hall, 1990 ISBN # 0-13 036633-1 It doesn't really have much of anything for non-programmers, however. For that, the documentation and technical articles are probably your best bet.

Most crucial is the fonts. I'm building this in an X11R4 environment, and apparently the version of xmkfontdir I'm running doesn't know about pcf files. The result is that the fonts.dir file never gets built, so no Andrew fonts are ever recognized. Is there anything I can do about this? Second, there seems to be a bug in the preferences-reading code. Preferences that used to work have just stopped working, with some weird error mesages that suggest memory corruption. In particular, I have the preference *.SurrogateHelpFile: /u/nsb/personal/TODO.ez which worked with the old version, but the new Messages now gives me the error message Cannot read surrogate help file ISCOLOR (2) Now "ISCOLOR" is a string that appears *later* in my preferences file, so I suspect some kind of memory corruption. Have the preferences-handling routines changed substantially? Finally, I am surprised and disappointed to discover that the long-yearned-for Motif-style dialog boxes and buttons seems to use much more bandwidth on the X protocol than the old versions. The result is that, when using an X terminal over a dialup, the new verison of Andrew feels MUCH slower than the old one -- lots of sitting around waiting for the buttons to draw themselves. Is there any way to get rid of the 3-d look on the butons and dialog boxes? I couldn't find any way in the documentaton, but I thought I'd ask, because the fancy look is simply not worth the cost at 9600 baud. Overall, this was one of the smoothest Andrew compilations I've ever had, so I hate to be complaining, but it isn't quite perfect. The font problem is the most crucial. Any ideas?

It seems that messages depends on storage that shouldn't be depended on, but has always gotten away with it in the past. Anyway, here's a fix for that bug. The fix is localized to atkams/messages/lib/text822v.c: 129c129 < char *SurrogateHelpFile; --- > char *SurrogateHelpFile, *s; 138c138,142 < SurrogateHelpFile = (char *) environ_GetProfile("messages.surrogatehelpfile"); --- > s = (char *) environ_GetProfile("messages.surrogatehelpfile"); > if (s) { > SurrogateHelpFile = malloc(1+strlen(s)); > strcpy(SurrogateHelpFile, s); > } else s = SurrogateHelpFile = s; In other words, we just need to keep a copy of the value rather than a pointer.

In overhead/malloc/malloc.ci there was an ifdef hpux which set the variable sbrk to void *. However in /usr/include/sys/unistd.h there is an ifdef _CLASSIC_XOPEN_TYPES which sets sbrk to char *. As this is the only place where sbrk is redefined, we have assumed that this is what is causing the compilation clash. Where the _CLASSIC... variable is set, I do not know. I have therefore commented out the ifdef hpux temporarily until I hear from you if this is the right thing to do. As for the issue about the wrong system file being used, this seems to stem from config/platform.tmpl where hp300/system.mcr is used instead of hp300_80. As this seems to relate to what you were discussing with Jean, I have temporarily hacked this file to explicitly reference hp300_80 until I hear the new solution. The reason for doing the above is that I need to build this version first and then make my demo code changes in andrew mail and then rebuild. I want to do the first before the second and they both take time ! Please let me know if you have any better solutions or if you think that I have not done the correct fix. Thanks. In future Jean and I will try to fix/debug before I/he mail you.

It looks a little weird... -- Nathaniel Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 1447;andrew.cmu.edu;Gary Keim Received: from rascal.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Wed, 23 Oct 1991 17:34:49 -0400 (EDT) If-Type-Unsupported: send Received: from rascal.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Wed, 23 Oct 1991 17:34:05 -0400 (EDT) Received: from Messages.7.15.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.rascal.andrew.cmu.edu.rs.aix3 1 via MS.5.6.rascal.andrew.cmu.edu.rs_aix31; Wed, 23 Oct 1991 17:34:04 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: Date: Wed, 23 Oct 1991 17:34:04 -0400 (EDT) From: Gary Keim X-Andrew-Message-Size: 1023+0 Content-Type: X-BE2; 12 To: Info-Andrew Subject: Re: ez overwrites symbolic link In-Reply-To: References: Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 5904;andrew.cmu.edu;Robert Andrew Ryan Received: from cresskill.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Wed, 23 Oct 1991 17:42:16 -0400 (EDT) If-Type-Unsupported: send Received: from cresskill.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Wed, 23 Oct 1991 17:41:42 -0400 (EDT) Received: from Messages.7.15.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.cresskill.andrew.cmu.edu.rs.a ix31 via MS.5.6.cresskill.andrew.cmu.edu.rs_aix31; Wed, 23 Oct 1991 17:41:42 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: Date: Wed, 23 Oct 1991 17:41:42 -0400 (EDT) From: Robert Andrew Ryan X-Andrew-Message-Size: 522+0 Content-Type: X-BE2; 12 To: Info-Andrew Subject: Re: Minor dialog box question In-Reply-To: References: Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po2.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Thu, 24 Oct 1991 09:53:53 -0400 (EDT) Received: from po2.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Thu, 24 Oct 1991 09:46:24 -0400 (EDT) Received: from ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU by po2.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id for info-andrew; Thu, 24 Oct 91 09:46:11 EDT Received: by ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU (5.63/1.42) id AA10168; Thu, 24 Oct 91 06:30:58 -0700 Received: from USENET by ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU with netnews for info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu (info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu) (contact usenet@ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU if you have questions) Date: 20 Oct 91 19:29:26 GMT From: dog.ee.lbl.gov!hellgate.utah.edu!caen!zaphod.mps.ohio-state.edu!uwm.edu!l inac!convex!datri@ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU (Anthony A.

This functionality is now gone. I presume it has something to do with the change of buttons, but I also presume that the disappearance of the Commit button was an accident.

Message-Id: <1991Oct23.181309.16227@sti.com> Sender: info-andrew-request@andrew.cmu.edu To: info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu For approximately the 4th time, I have tried to build an Andrew system. I tried with X11R2. I tried with X11R3. I tried with X11R4. And now I have tried with X11R5. I failed in frustration every time. The latest: # xmkmf # make Makefiles make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 307: Unexpected end of line seen Due to an unresolved cpp macro MkdirTarget($(DIRS)). This is on a SunOS 4.1.1 Sparc IPC. I built the makefile, obviously, with UseInstalled. A more naive me would dig around and find the definition, but the jaded me has decided that this event and its predescessors point to a full-time investment of my future. I'm sorry. Andrew advertises some very interesting features. It appears to be quite rich with utility. However, if a relatively motivated and reasonably intelligent developer cannot decipher its build instructions, or if the build files themselves have bugs, Andrew promoters cannot expect it to go very far. Why can't Andrew be shipped with something that actually uses Imake? Why can't target destinations be resolved, by default, to something based off Imakefile destinations? (My X11R5 code is in /usr/X11R5/..., as are many peoples'.) Why can't it resolve configuration questions, as so many other useful packages do, by running a shell script? Ugh. Maybe I will try again with X11R6. Then again, maybe not. -- ____ text822, 196710
