#
1. Overview
The Rational X Library (Xlib) implements the Ada Language X
Interface layer of the X Window System from MIT. Xlib runs
native on the R1000 and it can be ported to most target systems
that support TCP/IP or some other stream-based networking
protocol.
It currently runs on:
* Hewlett-Packard 9000 series 300 - HPUX version 7.0 or later -
Rational HP-UX Mc680x0 Cross Development Facility, v6.0.
* Rational R1000 - Environment versions D_10_20_0 and D_12_1_1 -
native compiler
* Sun Microsystems - SunOS version 4.0.3 or later - TeleSoft
TeleGen2 v1.4A (Mc680x0)
This is the first nonbeta release. It has full copies (first
draft) of all documentation.
Xlib is available as a Rational product in two forms; binary-only
and full-source. The binary-only version is a subset of the
full-source version.
Xlib is also available, without Rational product support, from
various Ada and X archives. Contact your favorite archive to see
if they have it. This version of Xlib contains the full source
code for the libraries but it does not have the active support
supplied to Rational customers. Support for the public Xlib
version consists of the Xlib@Rational.com mailing list and the
Xlib-Bugs@Rational.Com mailbox for reporting problems and
suggestions. Mail to Xlib-Bugs is handled on an As-Time-Permits
basis.
#
2. Configurations
Rev6_0_0 is compatible with Rational Environment versions
D_10_20_0 or later.
#
2.1. Hewlett-Packard
Xlib has been ported to 9000 series 300's under HP-UX 7.0. It

Xlib has not been ported to SPARC or to the 386i.
#
3. Upgrade_Impact
Xlib Rev6_0_0 completely replaces all previous versions for all
targets. Intallation will replace all existing files and

extensively customized portions of Xlib.
#
4. Known_Problems
Xlib has no known problems.
#
5. New Features
This is the first nonbeta release.
The following three mailing lists have been created at Rational:

Rev6_0_0 Release
9.2. Installation Steps
1. Place cartridge tape into tape drive.
2. Use the Unix tar command to read the tape, eg.:
mkdir <some directory>
cd <some directory>
tar xvf /dev/rst8
3. Optionally modify the imake template files located in
tools/config. If you modify the templates then do a "make
Makefile" command followed by a "make Makefiles" command.
4. Build the libraries using a "make all" command.
5. Install the libraries in /usr/lib/X11/ada and executables in
/usr/bin/X11/ada by using a "make install" command.
Read the manual, "Porting the Rational X Library", the "UNIX
Makefile Tools" appendix, for details on what the imake templates
are and how the Makefiles work.
9.3. Installation Notes
Assuming that the TeleSoft TeleGen2 V1.4 compiler is being used,
then all components of the library should simply compile and
load.
9.4. Installation Testing
1. Run misc/fake_main in the x-library subdirectory. It should
print a "Fake_Main has elaborated." message. This proves that
the library can actually elaborate.
2. Run misc/hello-world in the x-library subdirectory. It should
pop up a window with a lopsided star in it. Click the middle
mouse button on that window to make it go away. This proves
that the library more-or-less works. Hello-world takes an
optional -display argument that supplies the name of the X
host to use, eg. "amber:0" to place it's window on screen 0 of
host amber.
3. Run ico/ico, muncher/muncher, plaid/plaid, puzzle/puzzle, and
dragon/dragon in the x-clients subdirectory. Each of the demo
programs is willing to accept a -display argument that
specifies the host to use for the demo. Eg. "amber:0". Click
the middle mouse button in the demo window to cause the demo
to exit. (Except for dragon which has a Quit button. Some
demos will not seem to exit "immediately" because they will
have already queued a large number of drawing requests with
the X server. This means that the demo window may remain on
the screen for many seconds while the server works its way
RATIONAL 07/31/91 5\f

through the queued drawing requests.
All of the x-client programs are also supplied in preloaded form
in the bin directory.
