MrmRegisterNames(3X) SDK X11 R4.11MU05 MrmRegisterNames(3X)
NAME
MrmRegisterNames--Registers the values associated with the names
referenced in UIL (for example, UIL callback function names or UIL
identifier names)
SYNOPSIS
#include <Mrm/MrmPublic.h>
Cardinal MrmRegisterNames(registerlist, registercount)
MrmRegisterArglist registerlist;
MrmCount registercount;
DESCRIPTION
The MrmRegisterNames function registers a vector of names and
associated values for access in MRM. The values can be callback
functions, pointers to user-defined data, or any other values. The
information provided is used to resolve symbolic references occurring
in UID files to their run-time values. For callbacks, this
information provides the procedure address required by the Motif
Toolkit. For names used as identifiers in UIL, this information
provides any run-time mapping the application needs.
This function is similar to MrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy, except that
the scope of the names registered by MrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy is
limited to the hierarchy specified in the call to that function,
whereas the names registered by MrmRegisterNames have global scope.
When MRM looks up a name, it first tries to find the name among those
registered for the given hierarchy. If that lookup fails, it tries
to find the name among those registered globally.
registerlist
Specifies a list of name/value pairs for the names to be
registered. Each name is a case-sensitive, NULL-
terminated ASCII string. Each value is a 32-bit
quantity, interpreted as a procedure address if the name
is a callback function, and uninterpreted otherwise.
registercount
Specifies the number of entries in registerlist.
The names in the list are case-sensitive. The list can be either
ordered or unordered.
Callback functions registered through MrmRegisterNames can be either
regular or creation callbacks. Regular callbacks have declarations
determined by Motif Toolkit and user requirements. Creation
callbacks have the same format as any other callback:
void CallBackProc(widgetid, tag, callbackdata)
Widget *widgetid;
Opaque tag
XmAnyCallbackStruct *callbackdata;
widgetid Specifies the widget ID associated with the widget
performing the callback (as in any callback function).
tag Specifies the tag value (as in any callback function).
callbackdata Specifies a widget-specific data structure. This data
structure has a minimum of two members: event and
reason. The reason member is always set to
MrmCRCREATE.
Note that the widget name and parent are available from the widget
record accessible through widgetid.
RETURN VALUE
This function returns one of these status return constants:
MrmSUCCESS The function executed successfully.
MrmFAILURE The function failed.
