NAME
XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox — A RowColumn widget convenience creation
function
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/RowColumn.h>
Widget XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox(
Widget parent,
String name,
XtCallbackProc callback);
DESCRIPTION
XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox creates an instance of a RowColumn widget of
type XmWORK_AREA 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 (zero) to the number of buttons in the menu minus 1.
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. The following list describes 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. The following list describes the additional four
arguments, in 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 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.
For more information on variable-length argument lists, see the X
Toolkit Intrinsics documentation.
A number of resources exist specifically for use with this and other
simple menu creation routines. For a complete definition of RowColumn
and its associated resources, see XmRowColumn(3).
RETURN
Returns the RowColumn widget ID.
