MrmFetchWidgetOverride(3X) UNIX System V MrmFetchWidgetOverride(3X)
NAME
MrmFetchWidgetOverride - Fetches any indexed (UIL named) application
widget. It overrides the arguments specified for this application widget
in UIL.
SYNOPSIS
#include <Mrm/MrmPublic.h>
Cardinal MrmFetchWidgetOverride(hierarchy_id, index, parent_widget,
override_name, override_args, override_num_args, widget, class)
MrmHierarchy hierarchy_id;
String index;
Widget parent_widget;
String override_name;
ArgList override_args;
Cardinal override_num_args;
Widget *widget;
MrmType *class;
DESCRIPTION
The MrmFetchWidgetOverride function is the extended version of
MrmFetchWidget. It is identical to MrmFetchWidget, except that it allows
the caller to override the widget's name and any arguments that
MrmFetchWidget would otherwise retrieve from the UID file or one of the
defaulting mechanisms. That is, the override argument list is not
limited to those arguments in the UID file.
The override arguments apply only to the widget fetched and returned by
this function. Its children (subtree) do not receive any override
parameters.
hierarchy_id Specifies the ID of the UID hierarchy that contains the
interface definition. The hierarchy_id was returned in a
previous call to MrmOpenHierarchy.
index Specifies the UIL name of the widget to fetch.
parent_widget Specifies the parent widget ID.
override_name Specifies the name to override the widget name. Use a NULL
value if you do not want to override the widget name.
override_args Specifies the override argument list, exactly as given to
XtCreateWidget (conversion complete and so forth). Use a
NULL value if you do not want to override the argument
list.
override_num_args
Specifies the number of arguments in override_args.
widget Returns the widget ID of the created widget. If this is
not NULL when you call MrmFetchWidgetOverride, MRM assumes
that the widget has already been created and

MrmFetchWidgetOverride returns MrmFAILURE.
class Returns the class code identifying MRM's widget class.
Literals identifying MRM widget class codes are defined in
the include file <Mrm/MrmPublic.h>.
RETURN VALUE
This function returns one of these status return constants:
MrmSUCCESS The function executed successfully.
MrmBAD_HIERARCHY The hierarchy ID was invalid.
MrmNOT_FOUND The widget was not found in UID hierarchy.
MrmFAILURE The function failed.
