NAME [Toc] [Back]
XmStringToXmStringTable - A convenience function that converts a
single compound string to a table of compound strings
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
Cardinal XmStringToXmStringTable(
XmString string,
XmString break_component,
XmStringTable *table);
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
XmStringToXmStringTable takes as input a single compound string and a
specified string component (such as a tab) and returns a table of
compound strings consisting of portions of string delimited by
components matching break_component. The components marking breaks
will not appear in the resulting table.
string Specifies the XmString to be converted.
break_component
Specifies the XmStringComponent that will be used to
indicate where to split string to form the individual
elements of table. The most useful types will be
XmSTRING_COMPONENT_SEPARATOR and XmSTRING_COMPONENT_TAB.
Refer to the XmStringComponentType(3) reference page for a
complete list of possible component types. Note, however,
that the XmSTRING_COMPONENT_UNKNOWN component is not a
possible type.
table Returns the equivalent XmStringTable. The function will
allocate space to hold the returned XmStringTable. When the
applicaiton no longer needs the returned XmStringTable, the
application should call XmStringFree once for each compound
string in the table, and then calling XtFree to deallocate
the XmStringTable itself.
RETURN [Toc] [Back]
Returns the number of compound strings in table.
