+o There have been changes to the ViewKit 2.1 API's in
order to remove a conflict which existed with the new
C++ reserved keyword "export". The method on
VkCutPaste which used to be called "export" is now
called "exportData". This change will break source
code compatiblity with existing ViewKit 1.5.3
compatible applications.
+o There is a problem with installing this version of
ViewKit development images on a system that already has
License Develpment Environment (license_dev) installed.
The directory /usr/include/Vk no longer exists, instead
it is now a symbolic link. If the ViewKit installation
finds that /usr/include/Vk is not a symlink it moves it
aside (to /usr/include/Vk.O) and continues. This will
lead to the license header files no longer being found.
The workaround is to remove license_dev, install
ViewKit dev. and then re-install license_dev.
+o The implementation of VkDisplay and VkScreen, in this
beta release, does not provide support for deleting
VkScreens or VkDisplays and then cleaning up their
associated resources. This will be fixed in a future
release of ViewKit 2.1.
+o There are a few references in the online man pages and
the ViewKit Programmer's Guide to an SgList (or VkList)
widget. Currently this widget is undocumented and
therefore should be considered for SGI internal use
only. It is not supported for external use.
