Hi folks,
I'm having a really hard time debugging this issue.
If I use the exact same version of cygwin and XWin, exact same code, exact same Motif GUI app...
I find that when I try to use copy/paste functionality in TextFieldWidgets:
*Cut/Copy/Paste works perfectly on Windows 7 Professional
*Cut/Copy/Paste does not work at all and typically crashes on Windows 11 Enterprise
I am using an older version of cygwin for this specific test (cygwin 1.7.15 and XWin 1.13.2-1), but I am having the same issue with the latest version as well.
The fact that the same version works on 1 system and not on another seems to be the most important clue here.
Is there some system configuration I can enable to make the clipboard integration work on my newer system?
I am launching XWin like this on both systems (with clipboard integration):
run XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error
Any help greatly appreciated! Seems this must be a system issue since everything about the cygwin and XWin is exactly the same on both systems?
thanks!
