NAME [Toc] [Back]
XmStringGenerate - A convenience function that generates a compound
string
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
XmString XmStringGenerate(
XtPointer text,
XmStringTag tag,
XmTextType type,
XmStringTag rendition);
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
XmStringGenerate calls the XmStringParseText function with a default
parse table of entries consisting of '0', which maps to Separator, and
'', which maps to Tab. Matching RENDITION_BEGIN and RENDITION_END
components containing rendition are placed around the resulting
XmString.
text Specifies a NULL-terminated string containing characters of
a type determined by type.
tag Specifies the tag to be used in creating the result. The
type of tag created (charset or locale) depends on the text
type and the value given. If specified value is NULL, and
type indicates that a charset tag should be created, then
the tag will have the value of XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG. If
tag is NULL, and type indicates a locale tag, then the tag
will have the value of _MOTIF_DEFAULT_LOCALE.
type Specifies the type of text to be passed in, and the tag
type. If a locale tag should be created, then type has a
value of either XmMULTIBYTE_TEXT or XmWIDECHAR_TEXT. If a
charset should be created, type has a value of
XmCHARSET_TEXT.
rendition Specifies the rendition tag to be used in an
XmSTRING_COMPONENT_RENDITION_BEGIN component which will
begin the returned string and in an
XmSTRING_COMPONENT_RENDITION_END component which will end
it. If rendition is NULL, no rendition tag is placed.
RETURN [Toc] [Back]
Returns a new compound string. The function will allocate space to
hold the returned compound string. When the application no longer
needs the returned compound string, the application should call
XmStringFree.
