NAME
Constraint - The Constraint widget class
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
VERSION
This page documents Motif 2.1.
DESCRIPTION
Constraint widgets maintain additional state data for each
child. For example, client-defined constraints on the
child's geometry may be specified.
When a constrained composite widget defines constraint
resources, all of that widget's children inherit all of
those resources as their own. These constraint resources are
set and read just the same as any other resources defined
for the child. This resource inheritance extends exactly one
generation down, which means only the first-generation
children of a constrained composite widget inherit the
parent widget's constraint resources.
Because constraint resources are defined by the parent
widgets and not the children, the child widgets never
directly use the constraint resource data. Instead, the
parents use constraint resource data to attach child-
specific data to children.
Classes
Constraint inherits behavior and resources from Compositeand
Core.
The class pointer is constraintWidgetClass.
The class name is Constraint.
New Resources
Constraint defines no new resources.
Inherited Resources
Constraint inherits behavior and resources from Composite
and Core. The following table defines a set of widget
resources used by the programmer to specify data. The
programmer can also set the resource values for the
inherited classes to set attributes for this widget. To
reference a resource by name or by class in a .Xdefaults
file, remove the XmN or XmC prefix and use the remaining
letters. To specify one of the defined values for a resource
in a .Xdefaults file, remove the Xm prefix and use the
remaining letters (in either lowercase or uppercase, but
include any underscores between words). The codes in the

access column indicate if the given resource can be set at
creation time (C), set by using XtSetValues (S), retrieved
by using XtGetValues (G), or is not applicable (N/A).
