XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox(3X) UNIX System V XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox(3X)
NAME
XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox - a RowColumn widget convenience creation
function.
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/RowColumn.h>
Widget XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox (parent, name, callback, arg...)
Widget parent;
String name;
XtCallbackProccallback;
DESCRIPTION
XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox creates an instance of a RowColumn widget of
type XmWORK_AREA and returns the associated widget ID. This routine uses
the ANSI C variable-length argument list (varargs) calling convention.
This routine creates a CheckBox and its ToggleButtonGadget children. A
CheckBox is similar to a RadioBox, except that more than one button can
be selected at a time. 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.
Buttons are named and created in the order in which they are specified in
the variable portion of the argument list.
parent Specifies the parent widget ID.
name Specifies the name of the created widget.
callback
Specifies a callback procedure to be called when a button's value
changes. This callback function is added to each button after
creation as the button's XmNvalueChangedCallback. The callback
function is called when a button's value changes, and 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:
XmVaCHECKBUTTON
This is followed by four additional arguments. The set specifies
one button in the CheckBox and some of its resource values.
Following are the additional four arguments, in this order:

label The label string, of type XmString.
mnemonic
The mnemonic, of type KeySym. This is ignored in this
release.
accelerator
The accelerator, of type String. This is ignored in this
release.
accelerator_text
The accelerator text, of type XmString. This is ignored in
this release.
resource_name
This is followed by one additional argument, the value of the
resource, of type XtArgVal. The pair specifies a resource and its
value for the RowColumn widget.
XtVaTypedArg
This is followed by four additional arguments. The set specifies
a resource and its value for the RowColumn widget. A resource
type conversion is performed if necessary. Following are the
additional four arguments, in this order:
name The resource name, of type String.
type The type of the resource value supplied, of type String.
value The resource value (or a pointer to the resource value,
depending on the type and size of the value), of type
XtArgVal.
size The size of the resource value in bytes, of type int.
XtVaNestedList
This is followed by one additional argument of type XtVarArgsList.
This argument is a nested list of varargs returned by
XtVaCreateArgsList.
For more information on variable-length argument lists, see the X Toolkit
Intrinsics documentation.
A number of resources exist specifically for use with this and other
simple menu creation routines. For a complete definition of RowColumn
and its associated resources, see XmRowColumn(3X).
RETURN VALUE
Returns the RowColumn widget ID.
