Defect Description: PHSS_13903: - PHIGS Line width changes via pgse_u12 escape are not always immediately applied on the Visualize FX graphics hardware. - Improved the visual quality of Starbase/PEX/Phigs widelines. - Eliminated several artifacts seen in widelines. Solid widelines where sometimes 0.5 pixel offset. - Patterned widelines were inconsistently patterned with regard to width one lines and the segment endpoints jittered up to 0.5 pixel from the center of the line. - Corrected a defect in the Starbase/PEX/PHIGS hpvmx virtual device driver that was causing frame buffer write_enables to be ignored. - In rare cases, Visualize FX devices with the January 1998 periodic patch can encounter a segmentation fault. PHSS_13532: - This patch is part of the graphics patch set to resolve the specular highlights defect (see the 3D runtime patch, PHSS_13529, for a more accurate desctiption). The patch is a re-release of PHSS_13520 and exists to make the patch depencies consistent. PHSS_13520: - modifications include various performance enhancements PHSS_12481: - resolves patch installation dependency and does not modify the library what strings from the previous patch. PHSS_12466: - A memory leak in PHIGS content inquiries was fixed. PHSS_12457: - Various performance enhancements PHSS_11403: - HP-PHIGS Fill Areas have been enhanced to give better performance in some circumstances. Memory allocation for these elements is different; memory is allocated in 512K blocks, then partitioned for these elements. To enable the enhancement, export PHIGS_FILL_AREA_MODE=CHUNK PHSS_10248: - When swremove a PHIGS Runtime patch, the char_set_info file could also inadverently be removed; and PHIGS stops running. - PHIGS attribute changes can fail to cause regenerations. - Replacing an element in a PHIGS structure could result in an incorrect picture, if the element being replaced is normally ignored during display (i.e. SET PICK ID or APPLICATION DATA) and the element replacing it is not. - The behavior of the display of structures that use SET FACE DISTINGUISHING MODE elements before SET BACK INTERIOR REFLECTANCE EQUATION elements may have been affected. This fix restores the older behavior. - When PHIGS compliant lighting is enabled, facet normals are generated when not needed. - Performance enhancement for PHIGS fill area sets with more than one set. PHSS_10218: - The Jaunuary patch (PHSS_9250) had a problem where PHIGS applications could get a segmentation violation when using software double buffering on integrated color displays (8-bit devices on HP712/715/725). See PDep field. PHSS_9254: - PHIGS can dump core while rendering polyline elements, if the attribute caching traverser has been specifically disabled. - Incorrect operation of keyboard input in PHIGS. - Some degenerate POLYLINE SET 3 WITH COLOUR (ppls3c, polyline_set3_colr) elements may have their non-degenerate components rendered, where the whole element should be ignored. - Performance slow down due to some traversals of structures being edited. - PHIGS NURB surfaces may render isoparametric curves in the wrong color on VRX-family devices. - PHIGS nameset operations perform faster. PHSS_8384: - Segmentation violation may occur when inserting PHIGS ISO Fill Area primitives that are non-convex into a structure before a PHIGS Workstation is opened. - Optimization: consecutive POLYLINE 3 calls are faster. - PHIGS and other applications may hang on Hyper & Visualize devices for certain offscreen windows. - PHIGS Compliant backface lighting could cause core dump on VISUALIZE-24. - PHIGS fileset lacks /usr/lib/phigs/char_sets/char_set_info link, possibly breaking 9.X PHIGS archive programs. - The PHIGS traverser has been enhanced to process attribute structure elements more efficiently. To disable enhancement set environment variable HP_NO_CACHE_ATTRIBUTES=1. PHSS_7608: -PHIGS traverser performance has been increased for those applications that can meet certain constraints: * namesets are small (largest name is 31) * SET HIGHLIGHTING BETWEEN HANDLES ESCAPE (pue330, pescape_u330), IGNORE ELEMENTS BETWEEN HANDLES ESCAPE (pue332, pescape_u332) are *not* used by the application. * the application keeps modelling and viewing information in a separate structure from the model data, and does not edit the structure(s) containing model data in between regenerations.

instructions and the Hewlett-Packard SupportLine User Guide or your Hewlett-Packard support terms and conditions for precautions, scope of license, restrictions, and, limitation of liability and warranties, before installing this patch. ------------------------------------------------------------ 1. Back up your system before installing a patch. 2. Login as root. 3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory. 4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch: cd /tmp sh PHSS_13903 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_13903.depot 5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the server to install the patch on the server and the clients: swcluster -i -b This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and force all clients to be shut down. WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the patch installation. Installing the patch while the clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to serious problems. The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which you must specify: alternate root path - default is /export/shared_root/OS_700 source depot path - /tmp/PHSS_13903.depot To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install" from the Menubar. 5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster: - run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install the patch on the cluster server. - run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install the patch on the cluster clients. By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/patch/PHSS_13903. If you do not wish to retain a copy of the original software, you can create an empty file named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE. Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the patch cannot be deinstalled. Please be careful when using this feature. It is recommended that you move the PHSS_13903.text file to /var/adm/sw/patch for future reference. To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the tape drive, use the command: dd if=/tmp/PHSS_13903.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: None
