help please: The compile and link with ncurses is clean but the cursor behaves badly

by baysailor94129@[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Gary) Aug 28, 2003 at 12:58 PM

Hi-

Another newbie to ncurses here hoping for some help.

On a solaris 8 box I am using ncurses 5.2 and gcc 2.95 to compile some
RSA ACE authentication api code. If nobody knows what ACE is that's
ok. My problem is as follows:

I inherited this api code from a contractor whom we no longer employ.
I think I finally have all the versions of gcc, gmake, and ncurses in
place. The code was originally being compiled on solaris 7. I have
finally somewhat successfully compiled it on both solaris 7 and 8.
Ironically the solaris 7 version has many problems with graphics
display...but the solaris 8 compile looks beautiful. However, both
have problems when tabing in the sub menus. Here's the meat of what I
am encountering: I have 3 name fields in a sub menu in which I can
select a check box then tab to type in a user name directly below that
check box to look up in a database... I tab from one name field to
another and it works great...but when I tab to the ok box to procede
to the lookup the cursor just flops to the lower right hand side of
the sub menu and when I hit tab again to go to the cancel button the
cursor does not move...and finally when I hit tab again it
successfully moves to the top left most user check box as expected.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance to anyone that may be of some help.

Gary
