I definitely need a rescue!
I have a 32 line X11, complete program, that I cannot debug. Make this
program work on Solaris 10 and I'll pay you many US Dollars.
I keep bumping the topic on SunForums (originally posted in April), but
in spite of 300+ reads, not one single reply has been made. I decided
that X11 is soooo old that nobody at that forum has the slightest interest.
The program demonstrates XStoreColor failure that has baffled me for
months now.
I am seeking suggestions about how to overcome this. I have a
SunBlade1000 with Solaris 10. I use xdpyinfo to pick a pseudocolor
visual, 0x20 = 32 decimal in my case. I've run the program at work on
SunBlade100 with Solaris 8 and gotten an equally screwy printout.
Change:
template.visualid = 32;
to match YOUR pseudocolor visual.
I have tried many things, many pseudocolor visuals, forcing them to be
the default one and not. I've tried private color maps and not. I've
tried XAllocColorCells and XAllocColorCell. I have tried as root. The
result is ALWAYS BadRequest.
Posting the program ALWAYS ends up with mis formatting, so please find
the prog at http://www.io.com/~cjwyche/2010/20100718/20100718.html
It compiles via gcc trouble.c -lX11
Also contact me offline if you need more particulars.
