PB5.40LTSB10: Use of messagerequester invokes linker-error

[Didelphodon]

I have a program that uses MessageRequester - compiling it with the current version of PB (see subject) I receive a bunch of error-messages resulting in a linker-error.

See screenshot ...



With older versions of PB it worked/compiled without any problems.

EDIT: Same goes with InputRequester!

using gtk2 or gtk3 ? What is your linux version ?

using gtk2 or gtk3 ? What is your linux version ?

uname -a says ...
Linux xxxx 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.65-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux

GTK: libgtk2.0-dev

[Fred]

According to the GTK it should work on any gtk2+ system, so I don't know what is happening here

https://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/stable ... dialog-new
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable ... dialog-new

[Didelphodon]

I switched to libgtk-3-dev and now it works as supposed

[Fred]

OK !

Hm, seems as if Scintilla stuff does also need some kind of upgrade?

Here are my (line-wrapped) error messages ...

@Fred: Any idea which upgrade/version I need for scintilla stuff to work with PB 5.40?

[Fred]

Nop. Your distro looks too old.

Nop. Your distro looks too old.

Is that really the only solution - upgrading the distro? This machine is a pretty important machine to me at work (in my companies daily business) which would take me days if not weeks to get it fully working again because of the amount of software and configurations which is necessary to take a look at.

EDIT: Isn't there anything I can update similar to as I did it with GTK (2 > 3)?

[Fred]

I will take a closer look to it

[Fred]

Should work for the next version (the scintilla stuff).

[Didelphodon]

Should work for the next version (the scintilla stuff).

Thx for your efforts, looking forward ...
