[APN] 2015-05-04 [APN] suspects this information is circa 2007. [LV] If you find yourself needing to display X based Tk back to a Windows machine, and forced to use Exceed, I just want to document a head's up. I've been doing this now for several years. When I run the Tk test suite, tests that work just fine when displaying on a Sun based X display fail when displaying on the Exceed display. Here are some of the tests you will likely see fail (and yes, I have opened tk bug tickets on a number of these). === * canvRect-9.1 ScaleRectOval procedure FAILED * canvRect-10.1 TranslateRectOval procedure FAILED font-38.1 ParseFontNameObj procedure: begins with - FAILED font-38.3 ParseFontNameObj procedure: begins with -, doesn't look like list FAILED font-38.5 ParseFontNameObj procedure: begins with * FAILED font-38.6 ParseFontNameObj procedure: begins with * FAILED font-40.1 TkFontParseXLFD procedure: initial dash FAILED font-40.2 TkFontParseXLFD procedure: no initial dash FAILED font-40.3 TkFontParseXLFD procedure: not enough fields FAILED font-40.5 TkFontParseXLFD procedure: all fields specified FAILED font-43.1 FieldSpecified procedure: specified vs. non-specified FAILED * listbox-3.17 ListboxWidgetCmd procedure, "bbox" option FAILED * listbox-3.18 ListboxWidgetCmd procedure, "bbox" option, partial last line FAILED * listbox-3.78 ListboxWidgetCmd procedure, "scan" option FAILED * listbox-4.1 ConfigureListbox procedure FAILED * listbox-4.6 ConfigureListbox procedure FAILED * listbox-5.1 ListboxComputeGeometry procedure FAILED * listbox-5.2 ListboxComputeGeometry procedure FAILED * listbox-5.3 ListboxComputeGeometry procedure FAILED * listbox-5.4 ListboxComputeGeometry procedure FAILED * listbox-5.5 ListboxComputeGeometry procedure FAILED * listbox-6.12 InsertEls procedure FAILED * listbox-7.20 DeleteEls procedure FAILED * listbox-8.1 ListboxEventProc procedure FAILED * listbox-8.2 ListboxEventProc procedure FAILED * listbox-9.2 ListboxCmdDeletedProc procedure, disabling -setgrid FAILED * listbox-14.3 NearestListboxElement procedure FAILED main-3.1 Tk_ParseArgv: -help option FAILED scrollbar-3.12 ScrollbarWidgetCmd procedure, "cget" option FAILED scrollbar-3.36 ScrollbarWidgetCmd procedure, "fraction" option FAILED scrollbar-3.38 ScrollbarWidgetCmd procedure, "fraction" option FAILED scrollbar-6.12 ScrollbarPosition procedure FAILED scrollbar-6.29 ScrollbarPosition procedure FAILED scrollbar-6.35 ScrollbarPosition procedure FAILED scrollbar-6.44 ScrollbarPosition procedure FAILED select-10.2 ConvertSelection procedure FAILED select-11.1 TkSelPropProc procedure FAILED text-1.10 text options FAILED * text-31.11 peer widget -start, -end FAILED textDisp-27.7 SizeOfTab procedure, center alignment, wrap -none (potential numerical problems) FAILED textDisp-29.2 miscellaneous: lines wrap but are still too long FAILED textDisp-29.2.1 miscellaneous: lines wrap but are still too long FAILED textDisp-29.2.2 miscellaneous: lines wrap but are still too long FAILED textDisp-29.2.3 miscellaneous: lines wrap but are still too long FAILED textDisp-29.2.4 miscellaneous: lines wrap but are still too long FAILED textDisp-32.2 elide and tags FAILED textImage-3.2 delayed image management FAILED unixSelect-1.4 TkSelGetSelection procedure: simple i18n text, iso2022 FAILED unixSelect-1.5 TkSelGetSelection procedure: INCR i18n text, iso2022 FAILED unixSelect-1.6 TkSelGetSelection procedure: simple i18n text, iso2022 FAILED unixWm-4.1 moving window while withdrawn FAILED unixWm-4.3 moving window while withdrawn FAILED unixWm-50.1 Tk_CoordsToWindow procedure, finding a toplevel, x-coords FAILED unixWm-50.8 Tk_CoordsToWindow procedure, more basics FAILED unixWm-50.10 Tk_CoordsToWindow procedure, unmapped windows FAILED === I understand that the items above preceeded by * are pixel related and that different "window management" software handles things differently. So your mileage may vary a bit. Another observation - when I run the test suites of various widget sets, such as tktable, tklib, etc. - I typically see Exceed display go into what I call '''burst mode''', where I see about 8 seconds of no activity on the windows machine at all, followed by a quick "catch up" on whatever events were generated during that time, then another 8 seconds of no activity, etc. Once the test suite finishes, performance returns to normal. <>Windows
