In IDL 6.0 for Mac OS-X, X11
I am working on a program, surfview.pro, from the Intermediat IDL
booklet. It is one of the object graphics programs. It works fine in
idlde. So as an extra exercise, I decided to try to convert it to a
.sav file for use with the virtual machine. I did the system reset,
compiled it again, RESOLVE_ALL and then SAVE. Everything copacetic.
So I run idl -vm from my X11 and it comes up with the old BadWindows
error, viz.
--
11:16am% idl -vm=/Applications/idl_6.0/surfview.sav
[IDL version etc.]
% Restored file: IDLVMMAIN.
% X windows protocol error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes).
Xlib: sequence lost (0x101ef > 0x1f1) in reply type 0x13!
Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x1fa)!
Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x1fb)!
Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x1fc)!
% X windows protocol error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
--
It realizes the top level widget with the proper title, but then hangs
up. I took a screen shot of it. No image of the red Hanning surface
in the window, though. It will maximize and minimize but won't close.
Control-Z returns system prompt.
I am a rookie X-windows user so it would be great to get some help
with the environment variables or whatever is needed. GRACIAS!
