DESCRIPTION
The MrmRegisterClass function allows MRM to access user-

necessary information for MRM to create widgets of this
class. You must call MrmRegisterClass prior to fetching any

MrmRegisterClass saves the information needed to access the
widget creation function and to do type conversion of
argument lists by using the information in MRM databases.
