Hi Wolfgang,

Thanks for the contribution. We don't have a Vista machine to test your patch, but we will do what is possible for to make it publish in the mozart website. It will be the task of Vista users to provide feedback.

If you feel like making a whole package for Vista distribution, it would be really excellent... we currently use Inno Setup for the packaging, but I don't know if this also work for Vista.

best,
Boriss

Dear all,

I got a chance to play with Mozart on "Windows Vista" in the last days and could solve the problem with the GUI components (<http://lists.gforge.info.ucl.ac.be/pipermail/mozart-users/2007/008998.html>).

The attached patch can be applied like this:

 > cd mozart-1.3.2.20060615
 > patch -p1 <../emulator_2007_12_29.patch

If you want to use Oz on Vista but don't want to compile the system yourself, you might download this version of "emulator.dll": <http://code.google.com/p/oz-code/downloads/list>

The change is minimal: I removed two uses of the sprintf "%n"-specifier in the Emulator-Tcl-communication layer (/platform/emulator/tk.cc). Microsoft decided to drop support for this specifier with Vista. As a result, the names of Tk widgets were mangled.

Cheeers,
Wolfgang
