XmTextGetSource(3X) UNIX System V XmTextGetSource(3X)
NAME
XmTextGetSource - a Text function that accesses the source of the widget
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Text.h>
XmTextSource XmTextGetSource (widget)
Widget widget;
DESCRIPTION
XmTextGetSource accesses the source of the Text widget. Text widgets can
share sources of text so that editing in one widget is reflected in
another. This function accesses the source of one widget so that it can
be made the source of another widget, using the function
XmTextSetSource(3X).
Setting a new text source destroys the old text source if no other Text
widgets are using that source. To replace a text source but keep it for
later use, create an unmanaged Text widget and set its source to the text
source you want to keep.
widget Specifies the Text widget ID
For a complete definition of Text and its associated resources, see
XmText(3X).
RETURN VALUE
Returns an XmTextSource value that represents the source of the Text
widget.
