  1. Welcome to wxWidgets/X11
  2. You have downloaded the X11 port of the wxWidgets GUI library.
  3. This runs on X11 with no Motif, Xt, GTK+ or any other standard
  4. widget set -- instead it uses the wxUniversal widgets. The
  5. intention is to have it run on NanoX as well as desktop X11.
  6. More information about the wxWidgets project as a whole
  7. can be found at:
  8. http://www.wxwidgets.org
  9. Information on how to install can be found in the file
  10. install.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on
  11. many systems:
  12. ./configure --with-x11 --disable-shared --enable-log --enable-debug -without-odbc --enable-debug_cntxt
  13. make
  14. su <type root password>
  15. make install
  16. ldconfig
  17. exit
  18. When you run into problems, please read the install.txt and
  19. follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success,
  20. please send a bug report to one of our mailing lists (see
  21. the wxWidgets homepage) INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND
  22. YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR VERSION OF X, WHAT DISTRIBUTION YOU USE
  23. AND WHAT ERROR WAS REPORTED. Alternatively, you may also use the bug
  24. reporting system linked from the wxWidgets web page.
  25. The library produced by the install process will be called
  26. libwx_x11univ[d].a (static) and libwx_x11univ[d]-2.3.so.0.0.0
  27. (shared) so that once a binary incompatible version of
  28. wxWidgets/X11 comes out we'll augment the library version number
  29. to avoid linking problems.
  30. Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests,
  31. bug reports or comments to the wxWidgets users list. Information
  32. on how to subscribe is available from www.wxwidgets.org.
  33. wxWidgets/X11 doesn't come with any guarantee whatsoever. It might
  34. crash your hard disk or destroy your monitor. It doesn't claim to be
  35. suitable for any special or general purpose.
  36. Status
  37. ======
  38. Many of the samples are running.
  39. Some remaining issues:
  40. - some refresh efficiency issues
  41. - clipboard implementation missing
  42. - drag and drop implementation missing
  43. - wxX11's wxTextCtrl (separate from wxUniv version)
  44. needs some work, for example to remove vertical scrollbar,
  45. and to provide wordwrap
  46. - wxToggleButton implementation missing
  47. - wxSpinCtrl implementation missing
  48. - tooltips implementation missing
  49. - code common to the Motif and X11 ports needs to be merged
  50. - need thread safety in event loop

  52. The wxWidgets team
