NAME
XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar-A RowColumn widget convenience
creation function
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/RowColumn.h>
Widget XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar (parent, name, arg...)
Widget parent;
String name;
DESCRIPTION
XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar creates an instance of a RowColumn
widget of type XmMENUBAR and returns the associated widget
ID. This routine uses the ANSI C variable-length argument
list (varargs) calling convention.
This routine creates a MenuBar and its CascadeButtonGadget
children. The name of each button is button_n, where n is
an integer from 0 to one minus the number of buttons in the
menu. Buttons are named and created in the order in which
they are specified in the variable portion of the argument
list.
parent Specifies the parent widget ID
name Specifies the name of the created widget
The variable portion of the argument list consists of groups
of arguments. The first argument in each group is a
constant or a string and determines which arguments follow
in that group. The last argument in the list must be NULL.
Following are the possible first arguments in each group of
varargs:
XmVaCASCADEBUTTON
This is followed by two additional arguments. The
set specifies one button in the MenuBar and some of
its resource values. Following are the additional
two arguments, in this order:
label The label string, of type XmString.
mnemonic
The mnemonic, of type KeySym.

resource_name
This is followed by one additional argument, the
value of the resource, of type XtArgVal. The pair
specifies a resource and its value for the RowColumn
widget.
XtVaTypedArg
This is followed by four additional arguments. The
set specifies a resource and its value for the
RowColumn widget. A resource type conversion is
performed if necessary. Following are the additional
four arguments, in this order:
name The resource name, of type String.
type The type of the resource value supplied, of
type String.
value The resource value (or a pointer to the
resource value, depending on the type and
size of the value), of type XtArgVal.
size The size of the resource value in bytes, of
type int.
XtVaNestedList
This is followed by one additional argument of type
XtVarArgsList. This argument is a nested list of
varargs returned by XtVaCreateArgsList.
For more information on variable-length argument lists, see
the X Toolkit Intrinsics documentation.
A number of resources exist specifically for use with this
and other simple menu creation routines. For a complete
