I wrote gantt and pert charts widgets for a client (Unison Software, now part of IBM/Tivoli) about 5 years ago. It was not that hard to do. I don't know anyone...
Do you have any pointers on how this could be done. I was thinking of starting with a one column listview and drawing to scale within each item. Allan ... ...
For the Gantt chart, I believe I started with a vlistview and a vdomainview. The list few took car of the spreadsheet like data and the vdomainview displayed...

I fixed this problem in 2.7. I've only seen it surface with Japanese, but the problem isnt specific to Japanese. I do not know how to fix this without source. ...
I've reported this problem more than two years ago. Usually it involves east Asian fonts. Appears more often on Windows 2000 than NT 4.0. Our solutions...
Victor and Eric, Thanks for the advice. I have reproduced the problem in-house on a WinXP by installing one font: Abadi MT Condensed 64K 12/11/96 12:00AM ...

Hi, This is a general question about threads. I tried to write some thread safe classes, using mutexes on windows and unix (posix mutex). I found that the...
... Mutexes are the last resort of thread safety. If it is at all possible, you should try to architect your code to be thread safe without using synchronizing...
Using mutexes is going to involve a cost. Depending on the nature of your classes, you might want to make your objects "thread-friendly" and require the caller...
Thanks David for your quick answer. ... because I am afraid to make many mistakes in more complex cases, and I really dont know if each line of the C code is...
Thanks Eric for your quick answer. ... I am quite sure it is. I made a small program on Win32/Cygwin/Linux/MacOsX to allocate memory in A LOT of threads and...
... I don't think so. As far as I know, thread-starting APIs always specify a function to act as "main" for that thread. The function is called when the...
Thanks a lot for all explanation. I understand much better now. I assumed that the user could call my function thread_startup(). In that function I put an...
Also note that using Windows native mutexes are >very< slow... they require a full round-trip to the kernel, which isn't what you really want in most cases....

Hi GUMs, We are trying to make our Galaxy application work on a Japanese Solaris system. The first major issue is simply character input/output. Under CDE, a...
