MrmFetchSetValues - Fetches the values to be set from literals stored in UID files
#include <Mrm/MrmPublic.h> Cardinal MrmFetchSetValues(hierarchy_id, widget, args, num_args) MrmHierarchy hierarchy_id; Widget widget; ArgList args; Cardinal num_args;
The MrmFetchSetValues function is similar to XtSetValues, except that the values to be set are defined by the UIL named values that are stored in the UID hierarchy. MrmFetchSetValues fetches the values to be set from literals stored in UID files.
This function sets the values on a widget, evaluating the values as public literal resource references resolvable from a UID hierarchy. Each literal is fetched from the hierarchy, and its value is modified and converted as required. This value is then placed in the argument list and used as the actual value for an XtSetValues call. MrmFetchSetValues allows a widget to be modified after creation using UID file values exactly as is done for creation values in MrmFetchWidget.
As in MrmFetchWidget, each argument whose value can be evaluated from the UID hierarchy is set in the widget. Values that are not found or values in which conversion errors occur are not modified.
Each entry in the argument list identifies an argument to be modified in the widget. The name part identifies the tag, which begins with XmN. The value part must be a string whose value is the index of the literal. Thus, the following code would modify the label resource of the widget to have the value of the literal accessed by the index OK_button_label in the hierarchy:
args[n].name = XmNlabel; args[n].value = "OK_button_label";
This function returns one of these status return constants:
MrmOpenHierarchyPerDisplay(3X), XtSetValues(3X).
