XmStringParseText(3)
NAME
XmStringParseText --- A function that converts a character string to a compound string "XmStringParseText" "compound string functions" "XmStringParseText"
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h> XmString XmStringParseText( XtPointer text, XtPointer *text_end, XmStringTag tag, XmTextType type, XmParseTable parse_table, Cardinal parse_count, XtPointer call_data);
DESCRIPTION
XmStringParseText converts characters specified in text to
corresponding components in the returned compound string. The resulting
compound string consists of at least one locale or charset tag
component and a series of XmString text components and other
components. The conversion proceeds according to the parse information
contained in parse_table. See the Motif Programmer's Guide for more
information about parsing and parse tables.
* If type is XmCHARSET_TEXT, the associated tag is interpreted as a
charset name. If tag has a value of NULL, a charset component
whose value is the result of mapping XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG is
created.
* If type is XmMULTIBYTE_TEXT or XmWIDECHAR_TEXT, the associated
tag is interpreted as a language environment name. If tag has a
value of NULL, a locale component with a value of
_MOTIF_DEFAULT_LOCALE is created. If type is XmMULTIBYTE_TEXT or
XmWIDECHAR_TEXT, tag must be NULL or _MOTIF_DEFAULT_LOCALE.
XmStringParseText also scans the string for characters that have
matches in parse_table. Whenever a match is found, the text up to that
point is concatenated with the mapped component.
text Specifies the NULL-terminated string containing characters of
a type determined by type. This is updated to point to after
the last character scanned.
text_end Specifies a pointer into text. If a NULL is supplied to the
text_end parameter, then XmStringParseText parses text until
NULL is encountered, or until it reaches a point in text
where it is directed to stop (for example, by a parse_proc).
Otherwise, the value supplied to the text_end parameter is
the pointer into text where parsing is to stop, and the
returned character is the one where parsing did stop.
tag Specifies the tag to be used in creating the result. The
type of string tag created (charset or locale) depends on the
text type and the passed in tag value. If the tag value is
NULL and if type indicates that a charset string tag should
be created, the string tag has the value that is the result
of mapping XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG. If type indicates a
locale string tag, the string tag has the value
_MOTIF_DEFAULT_LOCALE.
type Specifies the type of text and the tag type. If a locale tag
should be created, type has a value of either
XmMULTIBYTE_TEXT or XmWIDECHAR_TEXT. If type has value of
XmCHARSET_TEXT, a charset tag will be created.
parse_table
Specifies the parse table to be used in scanning for
characters to be converted to other compound string
components.
parse_count
Specifies the number of entries in parse_table.
call_data Specifies data to be passed to the parse procedures.
RETURN
Returns a new compound string. The function allocates space to hold the returned compound string. When the application no longer needs the returned compound string, the application should call XmStringFree.
