NAME
XmVaCreateSimplePopupMenu--A RowColumn widget convenience creation
function
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/RowColumn.h>
Widget XmVaCreateSimplePopupMenu (parent, name, callback, arg...)
Widget parent; String name;
XtCallbackProccallback;
DESCRIPTION
XmVaCreateSimplePopupMenu creates an instance of a RowColumn widget
of type XmMENU_POPUP and returns the associated widget ID. This
routine uses the ANSI C variable-length argument list (varargs)
calling convention.
This routine creates a Popup MenuPane and its button 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. The name of each separator
is separator_n, where n is an integer from 0 to one minus the number
of separators in the menu. The name of each title is label_n, where
n is an integer from 0 to one minus the number of titles in the menu.
Buttons, separators, and titles are named and created in the order in
which they are specified in the variable portion of the argument
list.
parent Specifies the widget ID of the parent of the MenuShell
name Specifies the name of the created widget
callback
Specifies a callback procedure to be called when a button is
activated or when its value changes. This callback function
is added to each button after creation. For a
CascadeButtonGadget or a PushButtonGadget, the callback is
added as the button's XmNactivateCallback, and it is called
when the button is activated. For a ToggleButtonGadget, the
callback is added as the button's XmNvalueChangedCallback,
and it is called when the button's value changes. The button
number is returned in the client_data field.
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 PopupMenu and some of its
