tttk_op_string(library call) tttk_op_string(library call)
NAME [Toc] [Back]
tttk_op_string - map a ToolTalk op code to a string
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <Tt/tttk.h>
char *tttk_op_string(
Tttk_op opcode);
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The tttk_op_string function returns a string containing the op for
opcode.
RETURN VALUE [Toc] [Back]
Upon successful completion, the tttk_op_string function returns a
string that can be freed using tt_free(3); otherwise, it returns NULL.
APPLICATION USAGE [Toc] [Back]
The distinctions in the Tttk_op enumerated type are for programmer
convenience, and elements of Tttk_op do not necessarily map one-to-one
with op strings, since ToolTalk allows ops to be overloaded. For
example, TTME_EDIT and TTME_COMPOSE are overloaded on the same op
(Edit), and the messages only vary by the Tt_mode of the first
argument.
