Marc asked me to send in the steps needed to make InterViews 3.1 compile
with the g++ compiler. Here are the steps I took when I built it here.
It seems to run fine, although there is one weirdness -- the font-names
on the font menu come out as black boxes instead of the names of the
fonts. I don't know if this is related to g++ or our X libraries or
what. You may not have the same problems.
I used gcc2.4.5 and libg++-2.4 to compile.
Using anonymous ftp, get /pub/3.1.tar.Z and
/pub/contrib/g++/iv-3.1-g++-3.1.tar.Z from interviews.stanford.edu.
Read the README file in the IV src tree and in the g++-patches dir.
Apply patch in g++-patches and then modify
iv/src/config/InterViews/{gcc,local}.def as necessary.
"make" as per README in the IV src tree.
If you followed all the instructions correctly, you should have a
working set of IV binaries. At least it worked well on the Sun under
SunOS 4.1.3. Your mileage may vary.
-C.
