XmCvtStringToUnitType

NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

#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 man pages for XmGadget, XmManager, or XmPrimitive 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 Use of this function as a resource converter is obsolete. It has been replaced by a new resource converter that uses the RepType facility.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
