XmFontListGetNextFont(3)

NAME

   XmFontListGetNextFont  ---  A font list function that allows applications
   to  access  the   fonts   and   character   sets   in   a   font   list
   "XmFontListGetNextFont" "font list functions" "XmFontListGetNextFont"

SYNOPSIS

   #include <Xm/Xm.h>
   Boolean XmFontListGetNextFont(
   XmFontContext context,
   XmStringCharSet *charset,
   XFontStruct **font);

DESCRIPTION

   XmFontListGetNextFont  accesses the character set and font for the next
   entry  of   the   font   list.   The   application   first   uses   the
   XmFontListInitFontContext  routine  to create a font list context.  The
   application then calls XmFontListGetNextFont repeatedly with  the  same
   context.  Each  succeeding  call  accesses the next element of the font
   list. When finished, the application calls XmFontListFreeFontContext to
   free the allocated font list context.

   This routine allocates memory for the character set string that must be
   freed by the application.  The function allocates memory  for  charset.
   The  application is responsible for managing the allocated memory.  The
   application can recover the allocated memory by calling XtFree.

   This function is obsolete and exists for  compatibility  with  previous
   releases.     It    is    replaced    by    XmFontListNextEntry.     If
   XmFontListGetNextFont is passed a context  that  contains  a  font  set
   entry,  it will return the first font of the font set. The next call to
   the function will move to the next entry in the font list.

   context   Specifies the font list context

   charset   Specifies a pointer to a character set  string;  the  routine
             returns the character set for the current font list element

   font      Specifies  a  pointer  to  a pointer to a font structure; the
             routine returns the font for the current font list element

RETURN

   Returns True if the  returned  values  are  valid;  otherwise,  returns
   False.
