Fred v0r100p1 is the patch provided for a bug discovered in Fred v0r100. 

PROBLEM

When running Gleam (from GlastRelease-v15r49), Fred v0r100 would not launch, and instead this is as far as Fred v0r100 would go when passed a ".ior" file:

FXRbToolBar::create: trying to create window before creating parent window.

A windows briefly popped up and then disappeared with that last error message.  Analagously, when on the Windows operating system, FRED v0r100 would throw the following error:

SOLUTION

(tick) The solution for both errors is to fix a line in kernel/gui/FredMainWindow.rb in the Fred v0r100 distribution.  On line 954 (in the "addToolBar" procedure), I changed
        Wiki Markup*@toolbars\[name\] = FXToolBar.new{*}(temp,
to
        Wiki Markup*@toolbars\[name\] = FXToolBar.new{*}(@toolbarBox

And that is the change in Fred v0r100p1.

...

  1. FRED v0r100p1 is availabe at SLAC in /nfs/farm/g/glast/u05/extlib/VC8/FRED-v0r100p1.zip
    1. (warning) When using ftp to get the zip file, set the mode to "binary"
      1. Code Block

250 CWD command successful

  2. Extract the contents of FRED-v0r100p1.zip

(minus) Using the DOS, "unzip," command to extract the contens of FRED-v0r100p1.zip prevents FRED from launching, and throws an error:

(plus) To avoid the above error, I recommend using a program like WinZip or 7-zip to extract the contents of FRED-v0r100p1.zip.  Basically, avoid using the DOS "unzip" command on FRED-v0r100p1.zip
