|
|
19 1. Introduction *workshop-intro*
|
|
20
|
|
21 Sun Visual WorkShop has an "Editor of Choice" feature designed to let users
|
|
22 debug using their favorite editors. For the 6.0 release we have added support
|
|
23 for gvim. A workshop debug session will have a debugging window and an editor
|
|
24 window (possibly others as well). The user can do many debugging operations
|
|
25 from the editor window, minimizing the need to switch from window to window.
|
|
26
|
|
27 The version of vim shipped with Sun Visual WorkShop 6 (also called Forte
|
|
28 Developer 6) is vim 5.3. The features in this release are much more reliable
|
|
29 than the vim/gvim shipped with Visual WorkShop. VWS users wishing to use vim
|
|
30 as their editor should compile these sources and install them in their
|
|
31 workshop release tree.
|
|
32
|
|
33 ==============================================================================
|
|
34 2. Commands *workshop-commands*
|
|
35
|
|
36 *:ws* *:wsverb*
|
|
37 :ws[verb] verb Pass the verb to the verb executor
|
|
38
|
|
39 Pass the verb to a workshop function which gathers some arguments and
|
|
40 sends the verb and data to workshop over an IPC connection.
|
|
41
|
|
42 ==============================================================================
|
|
43 3. Compiling vim/gvim for WorkShop *workshop-compiling*
|
|
44
|
|
45 Compiling vim with FEAT_SUN_WORKSHOP turns on all compile time flags necessary
|
|
46 for building a vim to work with Visual WorkShop. The features required for VWS
|
|
47 have been built and tested using the Sun compilers from the VWS release. They
|
|
48 have not been built or tested using Gnu compilers. This does not mean the
|
|
49 features won't build and run if compiled with gcc, just that nothing is
|
|
50 guaranteed with gcc!
|
|
51
|
|
52 ==============================================================================
|
|
53 4. Configuring gvim for a WorkShop release tree *workshop-configure*
|
|
54
|
|
55 There are several assumptions which must be met in order to compile a gvim for
|
|
56 use with Sun Visual WorkShop 6.
|
|
57
|
|
58 o You should use the compiler in VWS rather than gcc. We have neither
|
|
59 built nor tested with gcc and cannot guarantee it will build properly.
|
|
60
|
|
61 o You must supply your own XPM library. See |workshop-xpm| below for
|
|
62 details on obtaining the latest version of XPM.
|
|
63
|
|
64 o Edit the Makefile in the src directory and uncomment the lines for Sun
|
|
65 Visual WorkShop. You can easily find these by searching for the string
|
|
66 FEAT_SUN_WORKSHOP
|
|
67
|
|
68 o We also suggest you use Motif for your gui. This will provide gvim with
|
|
69 the same look-and-feel as the rest of Sun Visual WorkShop.
|
|
70
|
|
71 The following configuration line can be used to configure vim to build for use
|
|
72 with Sun Visual WorkShop:
|
|
73
|
|
74 $ CC=cc configure --enable-workshop --enable-gui=motif \
|
|
75 -prefix=<VWS-install-dir>/contrib/contrib6/<vim-version>
|
|
76
|
|
77 The VWS-install-dir should be the base directory where your Sun Visual WorkShop
|
|
78 was installed. By default this is /opt/SUNWspro. It will normally require
|
|
79 root permissions to install the vim release. You will also need to change the
|
|
80 symlink <VWS-install-dir>/bin/gvim to point to the vim in your newly installed
|
|
81 directory. The <vim-version> should be a unique version string. I use "vim"
|
|
82 concatenated with the equivalent of version.h's VIM_VERSION_SHORT.
|
|
83
|
|
84 ==============================================================================
|
|
85 5. Obtaining the latest version of the XPM library *workshop-xpm*
|
|
86
|
|
87 The XPM library is required to show images within Vim with Motif or Athena.
|
|
88 Without it the toolbar and signs will be disabled.
|
|
89
|
|
90 The XPM library is provide by Arnaud Le Hors of the French National Institute
|
|
91 for Research in Computer Science and Control. It can be downloaded from
|
|
92 http://koala.ilog.fr/ftp/pub/xpm. The current release, as of this writing, is
|
|
93 xpm-3.4k-solaris.tgz, which is a gzip'ed tar file. If you create the directory
|
|
94 /usr/local/xpm and untar the file there you can use the uncommented lines in
|
|
95 the Makefile without changing them. If you use another xpm directory you will
|
|
96 need to change the XPM_DIR in src/Makefile.
