XmRepTypeAddReverse(3X) OSF XmRepTypeAddReverse(3X)
NAME
XmRepTypeAddReverse-A representation type manager function
that installs the reverse converter for a previously
registered representation type
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/RepType.h>
void XmRepTypeAddReverse (rep_type_id)
XmRepTypeIdrep_type_id;
DESCRIPTION
XmRepTypeAddReverse installs the reverse converter for a
previously registered representation type. The reverse
converter takes a numerical representation type value and
returns its corresponding string value. Certain
applications may require this capability to obtain a string
value to display on a screen or to build a resource file.
The values argument of the XmRepTypeRegister function can be
used to register representation types with nonconsecutive
values or with duplicate names for the same value. If the
list of numerical values for a representation type contains
duplicate values, the reverse converter uses the first name
in the value_names list that matches the specified numeric
value. For example, if a value_names array has cancel,
proceed, and abort, and the corresponding values array
contains 0, 1, and 0, the reverse converter will return
cancel instead of abort for an input value of 0.
rep_type_id
Specifies the identification number of the
representation type
