: I ported xwindows application on to microwindows having nanox
: API. But some library functions are not implemented. Where can i find
: the wrappers of nanox for xwindows API.
Currently, this is implemented using macro wrapper functions in the
CVS file include/XtoNX.h. I have a yet-unreleased project where
I actually am going to the trouble of completely implementing the
Xlib API and redirecting it to Nano-X calls.
How would i be able to port an
: available xwindows application (like star office etc) on to nanox, would
: it be too much of a rework?
It's very likely that star office uses a layer above Xlib known as a widget
set, like GTK, KDE, QT or something like that. If that's the case, porting
the widget set to Nano-X will bring over the entire application set. If
the application is just using Xlib directly, then one of the two methods
above could be used, or, you could rewrite the Xlib calls directly to
Nano-X.
