Re: openmotif and libXp.a (xemacs-21.2)

On Thu, 3 Aug 2000 14:41:43 +0900 (JST), Martin Buchholz <martin(a)xemacs.org&gt; said: I remembered that I merely installed the binary distribution of open-motif-2.1.30 and open-motif-devel-2.1.30 (provided by openmotif.opengroup.org) using the ports mechanism of FreeBSD. I checked the source of XFree86 and found that libXp is 'the DtPrint extension library'. Still I don't know what it is... Anyway, /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk says: # shared/dynamic motif libs .if defined(HAVE_MOTIF) .if defined(MOTIF_STATIC) MOTIFLIB?= ${X11BASE}/lib/libXm.a -L${X11BASE}/lib -lXp .else MOTIFLIB?= -L${X11BASE}/lib -lXm -lXp .endif .endif So, -lXp is always used together with -lXm for building ports. I know little about X11 programming, so it is all guesswork and I may be totally wrong.
