3006.0. "Does DwtStringInitContext not exist on ULTRIX?" by REINIG::REINIG (This too shall change) Wed Jun 27 1990 22:05

    I can't find DwtStringInitContext in the ULTRIX decwindows .a files.
    Does it not exist there, forcing me to use DwtInitGetSegment?  The
    bookreader documentation highly recommends using DwtStringInitContext
    instead of DwtInitGetSegment.

3006.1DwtStringInitContext in DECwMisc.oCSCOA3::HOOD_DOMon Jul 02 1990 20:3415
    
    August,
    
    I would have answered sooner, but have been out of notes for a few
    days.....
    The DwtStringInitContext routine is located in the UWS sources in the 
    DECwMisc.c file, so I would guess that it is located in the 
    DECwMisc.o file in libdwt.a (for version 2.2 and 4.0 of UWS). 
    It does work as documented in the UWS 2.2 man pages, and I have
    used it. 
    
    Cheers,
    
    Doug

    An ar -x of DECwMisc.o from libdwt.a, then an nm -a DECwMisc.o | grep
    Proc did not find the routine DwtStringInitContext.
