NAME [Toc] [Back]
XmStringComponentCreate - A compound string function that creates
arbitrary components
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
XmString XmStringComponentCreate(
XmStringComponentType c_type,
unsigned int length,
XtPointer value);
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
XmStringComponentCreate creates a new XmString component of type
c_type, containing value. If value is invalid for the particular
component type, this function fails and returns NULL.
c_type Specifies the type of component to be created.
length Specifies the length in bytes of value. Note that this must
be precisely the length of the value string, not including
any trailing null characters.
value Specifies the value to be used in the creation of the
component.
Refer to the XmStringComponentType(3) reference page for a list of the
possible XmString component types.
RETURN [Toc] [Back]
If value is invalid for c_type, fails and returns NULL. Otherwise,
this function returns a new compound string. When the application no
longer needs the returned compound string, the application should call
XmStringFree.
