           XtAppContext app_context;

      void XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText(app_context, name, type, class, default,

             XtAppContext app_context;
             char *name, *type, *class;
             char *default;
             char *buffer_return;
             int nbytes;
             XrmDatabase database;

ARGUMENTS
      app_context
                Specifies the application context.

      buffer_return
                Specifies the buffer into which the error message is to be
                returned.

      class     Specifies the resource class of the error message.

      database  Specifies the name of the alternative database that is to be
                used or NULL if the application's database is to be used.

      default   Specifies the default message to use.

      name
      type      Specifies the name and type that are concatenated to form the
                resource name of the error message.

      nbytes    Specifies the size of the buffer in bytes.

DESCRIPTION
      The XtAppGetErrorDatabase function returns the address of the error
      database.  The Intrinsics do a lazy binding of the error database and do
      not merge in the database file until the first call to
      XtAppGetErrorDatbaseText.

      The XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText returns the appropriate message from the
      error database or returns the specified default message if one is not
      found in the error database.
