XmCvtStringToUnitType(Xm)


XmCvtStringToUnitType -- a function that converts a string to a unit-type value

Syntax

#include <Xm/Xm.h>

void XmCvtStringToUnitType (args, num_args, from_val, to_val) XrmValuePtr args; Cardinal * num_args; XrmValue * from_val; XrmValue * to_val;

Description

XmCvtStringToUnitType converts a string to a unit type. Refer to the XmGadget(Xm), XmManager(Xm), or XmPrimitive(Xm) man pages for a description of the valid unit types. Use of this function as a resource converter is obsolete. It has been replaced by a new resource converter that uses the RepType facility.

args
Specifies a list of additional XrmValue arguments to the converter if additional context is needed to perform the conversion. For example, the string-to-font converter needs the widget's screen and the string-to-pixel converter needs the widget's screen and color map. This argument is often NULL.

num_args
Specifies the number of additional XrmValue arguments. This argument is often zero.

from_val
Specifies the value to convert

to_val
Specifies the descriptor to use to return the converted value
