XmString(3X) XmString(3X) NAME
XmString - Data type for a compound string SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h> DESCRIPTION
XmString is the data type for a compound string. Compound strings include one or more segments, each of which may contain a font list ele- ment tag, string direction, and text component. When a compound string is displayed, the font list element tag and the direction are used to determine how to display the text. Whenever a font list element tag is set to XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG the text is handled as a locale text segment. Calling XtGetValues for a resource whose type is XmString yields a copy of the compound string resource value. The application is responsi- ble for using XmStringFree to free the memory allocated for the copy. Refer to the XmFontList(3X) man page for a description of the algorithm that associates the font list element tag of a compound string seg- ment with a font list entry in a font list. The compound string interface consists of the routines listed under SEE ALSO. SEE ALSO

XmStringCreate(library call) XmStringCreate(library call) NAME
XmStringCreate -- A compound string function that creates a compound string SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h> XmString XmStringCreate( char *text, char *tag); DESCRIPTION
XmStringCreate creates a compound string with two components: text and a font list element tag. 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. text Specifies a NULL-terminated string to be used as the text component of the compound string. tag Specifies the tag component to be associated with the given text. The value XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG identifies a locale text seg- ment. RETURN
Returns a new compound string. RELATED
