2.3 _V_i_e_w_K_i_t__L_i_b_r_a_r_i_e_s
lllliiiibbbbvvvvkkkk: The basic ViewKit class library. This library also
includes some widgets. The contents of this library are
used by most ViewKit applications. _l_i_b_v_k is portable -- it
is available on most other Unix workstations.
lllliiiibbbbvvvvkkkkSSSSGGGGIIII: The SGI-specific ViewKit class library. This
library includes thing that would have gone into _l_i_b_V_k,
except that they are SGI-specific.
lllliiiibbbbvvvvkkkkhhhheeeellllpppp: ViewKit provides help through a library
interface to a standard SGI help system. This help library
is not yet available. _l_i_b_v_k_h_e_l_p provides a stub interface
until the real interface is available.
lllliiiibbbbvvvvkkkkmmmmssssgggg: Classes that support inter-process communication
based on the ToolTalk library.
lllliiiibbbbXXXXppppmmmm: A library that supports X pixmap creation. This is
a freely available library, Copyright 1989-95 GROUPE BULL.
(See the copyright notice below.) SGI supplies this
library, basically _a_s-_i_s. Some ViewKit classes use libXpm.
This library is Xpm version 3.4.

Xpm is public domain software that follows usual X11
conventions. One of these conventions is that, so long as
you use only the public header files, compatibility is
generally maintained. If your application includes one of
the private header files, you need to rebuild and retest
your application with each new release.
In this release, some private header files changed. If you
used them, your application needs testing to ensure no bugs
were introduced.
2.3.1 _V_i_e_w_K_i_t__D_e_b_u_g_g_i_n_g__L_i_b_r_a_r_i_e_s It is highly recommended
that ViewKit developers install the appropriate ViewKit
debug DSO(s), found in _V_i_e_w_K_i_t__d_e_v._s_w._d_e_b_u_g, and
_V_i_e_w_K_i_t__d_e_v._s_w_6_4._d_e_b_u_g. These libraries include ample run-
time error checking to help you develop your application.
Use these libraries for program debugging only.
Debug DSO's are installed in the debug subdirectory below
the corresponding normal DSO. The library names are
identical. This means that an application can link
normally, rather than with a special debug library. By
setting the environment variables LD_LIBRARY_PATH,
LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH or LD_LIBRARY64_PATH, the application can
run with the debug library.
2.4 _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n__M_e_t_h_o_d
All of the subsystems for ViewKit can be installed using
IRIX. You do not need to use the miniroot. Refer to the
_I_R_I_S _S_o_f_t_w_a_r_e _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _G_u_i_d_e for complete installation
instructions.
2.5 _P_r_e_r_e_q_u_i_s_i_t_e_s
This section details the software dependencies needed for
ViewKit.
2.5.1 _I_R_I_S__D_e_v_e_l_o_p_m_e_n_t__O_p_t_i_o_n To compile and link with the
ViewKit libraries, you must have the IRIS Development Option
(IDO). This option includes the C++ Compiler, the IRIS
Graphics Library Development system, the X Window System,
and the Motif Development system. Without IDO, you cannot
compile or link ViewKit programs.
2.5.2 _R_e_q_u_i_r_e_d__S_u_b_s_y_s_t_e_m_s ViewKit requires that the
following IDO subsystems be installed:
_v_i_e_w_k_i_t__e_o_e._s_w*._b_a_s_e
_m_o_t_i_f__e_o_e._s_w*._e_o_e
