INSTALLATION

Theses instructions assume you are in the src directory.

The Athena Widget set is required to build xnetlib.


To build xnetlib cd into the src directory and type:

xmkmf
make

Then copy the xnetlib executable where you want it to be.

To run, type:  xnetlib


Xmkmf uses imake to create a makefile from the provided
imakefile.  Both xmkmf and imake should be installed on your
system as part of the X distribution, so if you get an error on
the xmkmf command talk to your system manager or check your
command search path.  As a last resort, you might also try
editing Makefile.std as necessary and typing 'make -f Makefile.std'.

If you are using an IBM/RS6000 you may need to refer to the
information in ../doc/README.AIXv3.

If you run into any problems please send mail to xnetlib@cs.utk.edu.

Subject:  94)  What is this strange problem building X clients on SunOS 4.1.2?

	In SunOS 4.1.2 Sun fixed a shared-library bug in ld which conflicts
with the way X11R4 builds the shared Xmu library, causing these symbols to be
undefined when building some X11 clients: 
	_get_wmShellWidgetClass
	_get_applicationShellWidgetClass
Compiling "-Bstatic -lXmu -Bdynamic" appears to work. 

To solve the problem if you are using OpenWindows 3.0 (X11R4-based Xt), please 
contact your local Sun office and request the following patches:

Patch i.d.      Description
100512-02       4.1.x OpenWindows 3.0 libXt Jumbo patch
100573-03       4.1.x OpenWindows 3.0 undefined symbols when using
                        shared libXmu
