NAME

XmCvtStringToUnitType − A function that converts a string to a unit-type value

SYNOPSIS

#include <Xm/Xm.h>
void XmCvtStringToUnitType (args, num_args, from_val, to_val)
        XrmValuePtr args;
        Cardinal ∗ num_args;
        XrmValue ∗ from_val;
        XrmValue ∗ to_val;

DESCRIPTION

XmCvtStringToUnitType converts a string to a unit type.  Refer to the man pages for XmGadget(3X), XmManager(3X), or XmPrimitive(3X) for a description of the valid unit types. Use of this function as a resource converter is obsolete.  It has been replaced by a new resource converter that uses the RepType facility. 

argsSpecifies a list of additional XrmValue arguments to the converter if additional context is needed to perform the conversion.  For example, the string-to-font converter needs the widget’s screen and the string-to-pixel converter needs the widget’s screen and color map.  This argument is often NULL. 

num_args
Specifies the number of additional XrmValue arguments.  This argument is often zero. 

from_val
Specifies the value to convert

to_val
Specifies the descriptor to use to return the converted value
