XmFontListEntryCreate

NAME

XmFontListEntryCreate - A font list function that creates a font list entry

SYNOPSIS

#include <Xm/Xm.h>
XmFontListEntry XmFontListEntryCreate (tag, type, font)
      char        *tag;
      XmFontType  type;
      XtPointer   font;

DESCRIPTION

XmFontListEntryCreate creates a font list entry that contains either a font or font set and is identified by a tag.

tag
Specifies a NULL terminated string for the tag of the font list entry. The tag may be specified as XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG, which is used to identify the default font list element in a font list.
type
Specifies whether the font argument is a font structure or a font set. Valid values are XmFONT_IS_FONT and XmFONT_IS_FONTSET.
font
Specifies either an XFontSet returned by XCreateFontSet or a pointer to an XFontStruct returned by XLoadQueryFont.

The toolkit does not copy the X Font structure specified by the font argument. Therefore, an application programmer must not free XFontStruct or XFontSet until all font lists and/or font entries that reference it have been freed.

RETURN VALUE

Returns a font list entry.
