Description The function merges the contents of one database into another. It may overwrite entries in the destination database. This function is used to combine databases (for example, an application specific database of defaults and a database of user preferences). The merge is destructive; that is, the source database is destroyed. The function opens the specified file, creates a new resource database, and loads it with the specifications read in from the specified file. The specified file must contain lines in the format accepted by If it cannot open the specified file, returns NULL. The function stores a copy of the specified database in the specified file. The file is an ASCII text file that contains lines in the for- mat that is accepted by The function creates a new database and stores the resources specified in the specified null-terminated string. is similar to except that it reads the information out of a string instead of out of a file. Each line is separated by a new-line character in the format accepted by If database is NULL, returns immediately.
