NAME
XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox - A RowColumn widget convenience
creation function
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/RowColumn.h>
Widget XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox (parent, name, callback, arg...)
Widget parent;
String name;
XtCallbackProccallback;
VERSION
This page documents version 1.2 of the Motif library.
DESCRIPTION
XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox creates an instance of a RowColumn
widget of type XmWORKAREA 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.

A number of resources exist specifically for use with this
and other simple menu creation routines. For a complete

RETURN VALUE
Returns the RowColumn widget ID.
