Source mode, function selector and file selector : display pb

Source mode, function selector and file selector : display pb

[wilfried.fauvel]

Hi all,
I have a little problem with Insight (cygwin win32), when I start it, I have to resize the window to view the Source mode, function selector and file selector (under the icons bar). Is there any tips to fix that ?

Thx.

That's been a problem since the version of about 18 February 2003.  The only
workaround I know of is to slightly adjust the window size.  Then the missing
strip will pop into view.

Only one copy of srcwin.itb appears on my disk and to verify that it is really
being read, I temporarily renamed it.  The Source Window does not appear when
Insight is invoked, proving that I'm working on the correct file.  I restored
the correct file name but still the source selector bar does not appear until
the window is manually resized.

Or open a console window and type "tk set ::GDBTK_LIBRARY". It will show 
you where the tcl sources it is using are located.

  A good way to find out which is the live one and which is a stray old copy
is to edit it manually and place the instruction "exit 0" on a line on its own
at the patch site.

  After that, if your insight still works at all, you got the other one.  If
it exits on startup before even opening the main window, you found it!

  (This is what I did on my system where I also have two copies and it WFM.)

Hi,
if it can help you (I'm using Insight 6.4), srcwin.itb in my file system is in /usr/local/share/insight1.0/, and an "unused" version (that's true ?) is in /usr/share/insight1.0/.

Ah, if only that were true in my case.

I made the change in my copy of srcwin.itb.  Alas, I still have to adjust the
size of the window to make that bar appear. (Note that this occurs with a window
which is NOT maximized at startup. I simultaneously open a Local Variables
window which is tiled horizontally with the Source Window.)

I'm using version 6.3.50_2004-12-28 dated March 25, 2005.  I'm still running
Windows 98SE and later versions require DLLs which are not available on my
system.

  Fortunately, tcl is a scripting language.  You can just apply the patch to
your local copy of srcwin.itb (in /usr/share/insight1.0 or perhaps
/usr/local/share/...) and it will take effect immediately!

Hi,
thanks for your answers,
Is this patch will be integreted in the next release ?

this is in the bug database as PR 253. I added a workaround description
to this PR some time ago, which unfortunately was a bit garbled. I reproduce
the relevant lines below.

HTH.

 There is a simple workaround for those who am annoyed by this: inserting 
 a (invisible) frame with the required height into the row of comboboxes
 avoids this. Here is a patch for srcwin.itb (relative to 6.1) which does 
 this:
 
 *** srcwin.itb.orig     Thu Jul 14 09:35:17 2005
 --- srcwin.itb  Thu Jul 14 09:40:33 2005

 *** 106,113 ****
      $_statbar.mode list insert end MIXED
      $_statbar.mode list insert end SRC+ASM
 
      pack $_statbar.mode -side right -padx 10 -pady 4
 !   pack $_statbar.name $_statbar.func -side left -pady 4 -padx 10
 
      # if user likes control on top...
      if {[pref get gdb/src/top_control]} {
 --- 106,119 ----
      $_statbar.mode list insert end MIXED
      $_statbar.mode list insert end SRC+ASM
