MrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy(library cMrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy(library call)NAMEMrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy — Registers the values associated with the
names referenced in UIL within a single hierarchy (for example, UIL
callback function names or UIL identifier names)
SYNOPSIS
#include <Mrm/MrmPublic.h>
Cardinal MrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy(
MrmHierarchy hierarchy_id,
MrmRegisterArglist register_list,
MrmCount register_count);
DESCRIPTION
The MrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy function registers a vector of names
and associated values for access in MRM. The values can be callback
functions, pointers to user-defined data, or any other values. The
information provided is used to resolve symbolic references occurring
in UID files to their run-time values. For callbacks, this information
provides the procedure address required by the Motif Toolkit. For
names used as identifiers in UIL, this information provides any run-
time mapping the application needs.
This function is similar to MrmRegisterNames, except that the scope of
the names registered by MrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy is limited to the
hierarchy specified by hierarchy_id, whereas the names registered by
MrmRegisterNames have global scope. When MRM looks up a name, it first
tries to find the name among those registered for the given hierarchy.
If that lookup fails, it tries to find the name among those registered
globally.
hierarchy_id
Specifies the hierarchy with which the names are to be asso‐
ciated.
register_list
Specifies a list of name/value pairs for the names to be reg‐
istered. Each name is a case-sensitive, NULL-terminated
ASCII string. Each value is a 32-bit quantity, interpreted
as a procedure address if the name is a callback function,
and uninterpreted otherwise.
register_count
Specifies the number of entries in register_list.
The names in the list are case-sensitive. The list can be either
ordered or unordered.
Callback functions registered through MrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy can
be either regular or creation callbacks. Regular callbacks have decla‐
rations determined by Motif Toolkit and user requirements. Creation
callbacks have the same format as any other callback:
void CallBackProc(
Widget *widget_id,
Opaque tag,
XmAnyCallbackStruct *callback_data);
widget_id Specifies the widget ID associated with the widget performing
the callback (as in any callback function).
tag Specifies the tag value (as in any callback function).
callback_data
Specifies a widget-specific data structure. This data struc‐
ture has a minimum of two members: event and reason. The
reason member is always set to MrmCR_CREATE.
Note that the widget name and parent are available from the widget
record accessible through widget_id.
RETURN
This function returns one of the following status return constants:
MrmSUCCESS
The function executed successfully.
MrmFAILURE
The function failed.
