Well, that would explain it.. Sorry, I missed this when reading FAQ the first time. Steve > Would you mind reading, first, on > http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/xfree/faq.html > about DLL issues with XT, Xmu, Xaw and MOTIF? I explained why it > could not be done. > This is a Windows OS issue not X11 code problem. > Which other version of X11 had Xt and Xmu etc as dlls, if they did, > they they were useless because the libXt.a etc were static and I > forgot to delete the *.dlls. In other words the *.a were not using > libXt.dll etc... > The only way to make Xt, Xmu and Xaw etc as dlls is to write a > customet DLL and all the X11 DLLs should call this DLL instead... > something like Hummingbird folks did... This would require a > substantial rewriting of X11R6 code. > PS: Please address cygwin-xfree issues to cygwin-xfree mailing list > in future. That is why the mailing list there. Will do.
