GTK+ installation problems

I have been trying to get the GTK+ to install on QNX 6.1. I got the files
from Armin Steinhoff’s page on sourceforge.net
I installed glib, and followed the same procedure to install gtk i.e. make &
make install (without configure first). I was able to install gtk+ with some
errors like “this version of XOPEN_SOURCE is not supported” (this error is
from Platform.h).
But now that I try to run the examples in Photon, I get a message: “Could
not find library libgtk-1.2.so.0”
Any help is appreciated.
Thanx
PS- I am going to try to run wxPython on Photon.

Btw, the problem file is sys/platform.h (native QNX file)

Due to the error I am unable to build gdklib.la

This version of GTK+ was compiled for 6.0 … it doesn’t work with 6.1.
You have to remake the GTK+ port again for 6.1 :frowning:

You could also just get the 6.1 packages from my webpage
on http://qnx.wox.org/.

Hi Armin,
I’m not all too familiar with porting. Please advise what changes I might
need in order to successfully remake GTK+ for 6.1.
I have installed the packages that Chris suggested in the newsgroup. I
think I have glib and gtk installed correctly.
But, when I tried to install wxGTK, I can’t run configure. I get the message
“error: cannot guess host type: you must specify one” !
Would you know how I can modify configure (if that’s what I’m supposed to
do) so that I can install wxGTK on QNX 6.1
Along the same lines, I noticed on the souceforge.net site that you have a
“micro GUI” for QNX that uses Python??? Would that be a better alternative
to wxPython???
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Sanket Khidkikar
