2007-12-25 8:27:00

Sun Managers -

My question was as follows:

> I am just starting to bring up a SPARCserver 1000 running

> Solaris 2.2. Has anyone tried installing Motif on 2.2 and

> where is a good place to obtain it?

1. The majority of the answers was to contact SUN. Carlos Morillo

   also included the announcement from SunSoft which I have included.

2. Greg Bean suggested "Bluestone - (609) 727-4600".

3. Chris Komuves of UniPress Software suggested their product. His

   reply is included.

4. Kevin Maher suggested getting it straight from OSF.

        Motif toolkit for the Solaris 2.2 computing environment gives

        software developers a head start in creating applications for

        the new common desktop environment (CDE).

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following SunSoft announcement was made on Tuesday, July 20, 1993.

SMCC will also price list the SunSoft Motif 1.2.2 Developer Toolkit. A

future SunFlash article will provide details regarding SMCC product

pricing and ordering information.

           SUNSOFT OFFERS MOTIF TOOLKIT FOR SOLARIS 2.2

                   First Step Toward CDE Product

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 20, 1993 -- SunSoft, Inc. today announced

the availability of a Motif toolkit for the Solaris 2.2 computing

environment, giving software developers a head start in creating

applications for the new common desktop environment (CDE). Today's

announcement reinforces Sun's commitment to the common open software

environment process and is a first step toward the delivery of a

CDE-based product next year.

The new Motif 1.2.2 toolkit offers software developers a comprehensive

set of tools that include the Motif libraries, Motif Window Manager and

the User Interface Language (UIL) compiler. The toolkit is based on

the industry standard X Window System and X Toolkit Intrinsics from MIT

and works with X11R5 libraries, making it portable across a wide range

of hardware platforms. The toolkit also offers a broad set of drag and

drop operations, enabling developers to create graphically-rich user

models for data selection and transfer. The UIL compiler allows

developers to conduct rapid user interface design and prototyping

without requiring massive amounts of code, significantly reducing

application development time. In addition, the toolkit supports level 4

internationalization to provide easy software localization for the

European and Asian markets.

"SunSoft continues to demonstrate its commitment to open systems and

the cose process," said Jim Billmaier, vice president of marketing at

SunSoft. "With today's announcement we are providing our software

developers with the technologies needed to accelerate their move to the

new common desktop environment."

The common open software environment process was established in March

of this year by the UNIX leaders, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, USL, Santa Cruz

Operations and SunSoft. The process is intended to expedite the

adoption of standards and promote greater consistency and

interoperability among UNIX system products in the industry. Last

month, the companies submitted the CDE specification to the X/Open

organization and in October the companies will hold a developer

conference that will focus on technologies and application development

for this new environment.

Pricing and Availability

The SunSoft Motif 1.2.2 Developer Toolkit for Solaris 2.2 SPARC is

available immediately and is priced at $295 in single quantity. The

product includes a single compact disc (CD) with the Motif libraries,

UIL compiler, the Motif Window Manager and on-line documentation.

Internationalized European and Japanese versions will be available by

the end of the year. A Motif toolkit for the Solaris x86 environment

will be available in 90 days. Pricing will be announced at that time.

Sun Microsystems Computer Corporation (SMCC) will price list the

SunSoft Motif 1.2.2 Developer Toolkit at a non-discountable price of

56.08 MOTIF 1.2.2 Developers Toolkit for Solaris 2.2

        - Comprehensive set of tools and standard API to create

          applications with a Motif look-and-feel GUI.

        - Includes Motif 1.2.2 libraries, Motif Window Manager

          and UIL compiler.

        - Based on X11r5 libraries and supports Level 4 Internationalization

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sun Microsystems Computer Corporation (SMCC) announces the availability

of SunSoft's Motif 1.2.2 Developer's Toolkit for Solaris(R) 2.2 operating

environment. This Motif Toolkit provides software developers with a

comprehensive set of tools for creating applications with a Motif

look-and-feel graphical user interface (GUI). It includes the

Motif 1.2.2 libraries, the Motif Window Manager and a UIL compiler.

The Motif graphical user interface provides application developers, end

users and hardware system vendors with the industry's popular environment

for standardizing application presentation on a wide range of

X-Window-System (X11r5) based platforms.

Product Description

--------------------

Motif 1.2.2 Developer's Toolkit is an unbundled, shrink-wrapped package

containing a Motif CD, hardcopy Motif 1.2 user's guide, Motif 1.2.2

Installation & Release Manual and RTU license. The CD includes the Motif

Toolkit, header files, and the Motif Window Manager (mwm). All related

Motif 1.2 documentation (Programmer's Guide, Programmer's Reference and

Motif Style Guide) are included online in PostScript(R) file format. A

separate hardcopy Motif 1.2.2 Documentation Set containing a Programmer's

Guide, Programmer's Reference and a Motif Style Guide can also be ordered.

New functionality provided by the Motif 1.2.2 Toolkit includes:

- new functions for focus management, list management, scrolled window,

  baseline alignment

- a cleaned-up geometry management

- new widget features such as extended titled frame widget, new template

  dialog box

- drag-and-drop support

- 16-bit I18N

- tear-off menus

This toolkit is an add-on to the OpenWindows(TM) developer environment

for Solaris. Potential customers are ISVs, VEUs, OEMs, and other

software developers who would want to develop applications with a Motif

GUI for end users.

In general, any organization that wants to develop Motif 1.2.2 based

applications on Solaris 2.2 is a potential customer.

This Motif 1.2.2 Toolkit is being offered by Sun as part of it's

transition process towards the Common Open Software Environment (COSE)

and the Common Desktop Environment (CDE). It provides software developers

with a quick, easy and cost-effective transition to CDE. Note that

the foundation of the CDE/Motif Toolkit is OSF/Motif 1.2.2 Toolkit,

on which this product is based. (See the Question and Answer section for

more details).

The Motif Window Manager (mwm) is included as part of this product

primarily because mwm is required for software developers to produce

Motif-based applications. This DOES NOT imply that Sun is making mwm

the default window manager for end users. Sun's goal is a clean migration

to CDE, and CDE will use a version of HP's VUE window manager. Until CDE

ships from Sun, the OPEN LOOK(R) window manager (olwm) will continue to be

the default.

Sun's current XView and OLIT Toolkits will both continue to be supported

and their quality will be improved for the foreseeable future. There will

be no new functionality added to either XView(TM) or OLIT. Applications based

on XView or OLIT need not be converted to Motif. But, for new applications,

we recommend that Motif 1.2.2 be the toolkit of choice.

Features & Benefits

-------------------

* Quality

  This toolkit is based on the Motif 1.2.2 patch release from OSF, which

  is a quality release containing approximately 250 bug fixes for the

  OSF/Motif 1.2 Toolkit.

* Standards and Portability

  This toolkit is based on industry standard X Window System and X

  Toolkit Intrinsics from MIT. It works with X11r5 libraries, which are

  supplied with with Solaris 2.2 (SPARC) operating system as well as

  several other operating systems, making it portable across a wide

  range of hardware platforms.

* Level 4 Internationalization

  Software developers can use Motif 1.2.2 Toolkit library interfaces in

  conjunction with Xlib application programming interface (API) to

  produce GUI applications that are localizable for both Asian and

  European markets. This release of Motif 1.2.2 Toolkit will work with

  the Asian Solaris input method server 'htt'.

* Drag and Drop

  The toolkit supports a set of Drag and Drop operations, allowing

  software developers to provide graphically rich user models for

  selecting and transferring data within a Motif application and

  between Motif applications.

* User Interface Language (UIL)

  UIL provides a means of describing the initial state of a Motif

  application in a set of modules outside the application code. The

  benefits of this include fast prototyping, easy localization and

  logical separation of the functionality of the application from the

  user interface.

Other Available Motif Toolkits:

------------------------------

1. Integrated Computer Sysytems (ICS, Cambridge, Mass.)

        ICS offers Motif 1.2.2 Developer Kit on Solaris 2.2(SPARC(R))

        will be released by end-July. No major change in price is

        expected.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

---------------------

Q. What components are being provided for Motif development?

A. libXm, libuil, libMrm, Motif Window Manager, UIL Compiler,

   some demos with source, Motif online manual pages and the complete

   suite of Motif Rev 1.2 documentation online in PostScript format.

Q. What are the Motif 1.2.2 Toolkit product dependencies?

A. libXm requires Release 5 or later of libX11. These are present

   in OpenWindows in Asian Solaris 2.1 and Solaris 2.2. Solaris releases

   earlier than Asian Solaris 2.1 (including Domestic Solaris 2.1) will

   need Release 5 for libX11 and libXt from elsewhere.

Q. Can Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) distribute their applications

   with Sun's Motif libraries?

A. Yes, ISVs can distribute their applications with Sun's Motif

   libraries, either statically or dynamically linked. Both forms of the

   Motif libraries exist in the product. Sun has OSF Motif Full

   Distribution Rights, which covers OSF licenses for our customers

   and also licenses for end users. There are no royalty payments to

   Sun associated with this product.

Q. Are there royalty payments for Motif binaries? Are there any customer

   reporting requirements on a "per-copy" basis to Sun?

A. There are no royalty payments to Sun associated with this product.

   However, the distribution of any product other than a Run-Time copy

   must be accounted for on a "per-copy" basis and reported to SunSoft on

   a quarterly basis (e.g. shared libraries, mwm, UIL). The OSF defines "Run

   Time Copy" as a copy of any subset of routines from the "libXm" or "libMrm"

   library files in object code form which is statically linked within an

   application program and executable only within that single application.

Q. Can ISVs ship SunSoft mwm to end users with their application.

A. Sun will not support mwm on end user desktop environment. Therefore,

   ISVs should not ship SunSoft mwm with their applications to end users.

   Third party mwm alternatives are available, but OPEN LOOK applications

   will suffer some loss of functionality by using a third party mwm.

Q. If I start programming to this Motif API, am I likely to encounter problems

   in future releases?

A. Compatibility with other products is at two levels:

    1. Source compatibility:

        The API for this product is the Motif 1.2 API published by OSF.

        Source code you produce using this product will compile and run with

        other Motif implementations compliant with the OSF/Motif 1.2 API.

        This includes any future Motif 1.2 based products from SunSoft.

     2. Binary compatibility:

        This concerns you if your applications are dynamically linked with Motif

        shared libraries. The goal is to ensure that applications dynamically

        linked with this release will continue to work with future Motif

        releases. If in the future changes are made to Motif that would

        jeopardize this compatibility, measures will be taken to ensure that

        existing applications can still link with a library that will satisfy

        them. In addition, applications linked with Motif 1.2 products from

        third parties should in theory work with this SunSoft Motif 1.2.2

        release. Under certain circumstances, applications or widget

        subclasses may have been written to rely on layout or contents of

        Motif private data structures. Some private data structures in this

        release (taken from IXI) are different than in releases from other

        Motif vendors. Applications dynamically linked with another vendor's

        Motif 1.2 libraries may break when linked dynamically with SunSoft

        Motif 1.2.2 if they rely on details of components whose private

        implementations differ between the two releases. Details of components

        that fall into this category are listed in the product release notes.

Q. How do OPEN LOOK and Motif applications interact on the desktop?

A. The Motif Toolkit is ICCCM compliant. Both Cut-and-Paste and Drag-and-Drop

    operations will work between two Motif applications or between two OPEN LOOK

    applications. The Cut-and-Paste operation will work in a limited way from

    an OPEN LOOK application to a Motif application. It will not work at all

    from a Motif application to an OPEN LOOK application. Work is in progress

    to make Cut-Copy-Paste operations work both ways between OPEN LOOK and

    Motif applications in future releases of OpenWindows and Motif.

    Also, Motif applications will run on the OPEN LOOK window manager, and,

    OPEN LOOK applications will run on the Motif window manager.

Q. How will this Motif Toolkit relate to the CDE/Motif Toolkit?

A. The foundation of the CDE/Motif Toolkit is OSF/Motif 1.2.2

    Toolkit, on which this product is based. The goal is to achieve

    binary compatibility between Motif toolkit releases. Because of IXI

    proprietary extensions and bug-fixes, this cannot be guaranteed between

    the IXI-based product and the first CDE Toolkit product for applications

    or widget subclasses that use the affected components. See the product

    release notes for details regarding incompatibilities.

MOTIF DEVELOPER'S KIT AND MOTIF USER'S KIT
==========================================

* Port existing Motif applications from other platforms to Sun computers
* Build new Motif applications for the Sun
* Run your applications under Sun's X server or the one provided in
the kit
* Use a common user interface across a wide range of platforms
* mwm (Motif Window Manager) now available for Sun computers

Created for both developers and users, UniPress Software's Motif Kits
make it easy to port, build and run Motif applications on Sun computers. The
Motif Developer's Kit allows new Motif 1.2 programs to be built quickly, and
existing Motif applications to be easily ported from other platforms to Sun.
For endusers, the Motif User's Kit provides the Motif Window Manager (mwm).
Each kit is sold separately.

MOTIF DEVELOPER'S KIT
*********************

Developers can now bring Sun users the Motif GUI they're accustomed to
using on HP, DEC, and IBM UNIX platforms. With the Motif Developer's Kit,
Sun developers and ISVs can rapidly build new Motif 1.2 applications, and
easily port existing Motif applications from other platforms.

The Performance Edge
--------------------
UniPress' Motif Developer's Kit provides a distinct edge in performance.
UniPress includes an optimized X11R5 server that is smaller and faster than
Sun's Open Windows X server. Applications developed with the UniPress Kit
may also be run with Sun's X server. And, since UniPress has rigorously
tested its Motif Developer's Kit, you can be assured that Motif applications
ported from HP, DEC and IBM platforms will link and perform properly on Sun.

The Productivity Edge
---------------------
By assembling and enhancing Motif and X11 into an integrated, Sun-based
development package, UniPress helps eliminate the time-consuming start-up
period in the development cycle. Developers can be productive from day one.

The Motif Developer's Kit has everything you need:
* The Motif Toolkit, including all libraries
* A complete X11R5
* UIL (Motif User Interface Language)
* mwm (Motif Window Manager)
* Many Motif and X11 applications including xterm, xclock, xcalc etc.
* A full set of documentation
* Support from UniPress

Motif Libraries
---------------
The Motif Developer's Kit distribution includes shared and unshared
versions of the Motif libraries, related C header files, Motif Window
Manager (mwm), Motif User Interface Language (UIL), and sample programs.
UniPress Motif may be used with UniPress' included X11R5 server, or Sun's X
server. The libraries include:

libMrm.a libXau.a libXext.a
libXmu.a libXt.sa.5.0 libUil.a
libXaw.a libXinput.a libXmu.sa.5.0
libXt.so.5.0 libX11.a libXaw.so.5.0
libXm.a libXmu.so.5.0 liboldX.a
libX11.so.5.2 libXdmcp.a libXm.so.2.0
libXt.a liboldX.so.5.0

With these libraries you can create user interface components such as
dialog boxes, scroll bars and pull-down menus. Online documentation, fonts,
and IMAKE configuration language and scripts are included.
mwm is the Motif Window Manager used for manipulating application
windows. UIL is Motif's specification language for interface design.

Optimized X11R5 for the Sun
---------------------------
UniPress provides an X11R5, built and tested for the Sun, that takes
advantage of the resources of the Sun for superior performance. It includes
an X server, more than 80 standard X clients, twm and uwm window managers,
and all the libraries and header files needed to compile X applications. The
X clients include:

imake bdftopcf mkfontdir fsinfo
fslsfonts fstobdf showfont fs
kbd_mode constype showrgb appres
bitmap bmtoa atobm editres
listres oclock twm viewres
xauth xbiff xcalc xclipboard
xcutsel xclock xcmsdb xconsole
xditview xdpyinfo xedit xfd
xkill xload xlogo xlsatoms
xlsclients xlsfonts xmag xman
xmh xmodmap xpr xdpr
xprop xrdb xrefresh xfontsel
xdm xhost xinit startx
xset xsetroot xstdcmap xterm
resize xwd xwud xwininfo
xcmstest xgas ico maze
puzzle xeyes xev xgc
x11perf x11perfcomp auto_box beach_ball
plbpex xmkmf mkdirhier lndir
xon makedepend mwm uil
xmbind mxmkmf Xsun XsunMono

The distribution also includes all patches distributed by MIT and the
relevant OSF/Motif patches required for Motif, kept current by UniPress. Even
if you are required to work with another X environment, such as Sun's X
server, you will still be able to use the UniPress Motif Developer's Kit.
The UniPress Kit's X11 server is much smaller than the X/NeWS server, giving
optimized performance. The Motif Developer's Kit also includes a full Motif
1.1 and X11R4 distribution.

Full Set of Documentation
-------------------------
Documentation for the UniPress Developer's Kit exists in both online
and hardcopy forms. Included as hardcopy in the Kit are UniPress Release
Notes, OSF/Motif Programmer's Guide, OSF/Motif Programmer's Reference, X
Toolkit Intrinsics Programming Manual (O'Reilly), and the Motif Programming
Manual (O'Reilly).

UNIPRESS MOTIF USER'S KIT
*************************

With the UniPress Motif User's Kit, the industry-standard mwm is now
available for Sun computers. The Motif User's Kit includes a five-user
bundle of the mwm window manager, which has been optimized for Sun platforms
by UniPress. With the Motif User's Kit, applications developed with the
Motif Developer's Kit can be instantly run on individual Sun workstations,
giving complete Motif look-and-feel. Since the UniPress Motif User's Kit is
bundled in five-unit packages, the UniPress Kit gives not only the best
performance, but the best value, for the price.

Documentation
-------------
Documentation for the UniPress Motif User's Kit is in hardcopy form
and includes the UniPress Release Notes and five copies of the mwm manual.
