NAME

#include <Xmt/WidgetType.h> void XmtRegisterXmScale(void)

void XmtRegisterXmScrolledText(void)

void XmtRegisterXmText(void)

void XmtRegisterXmTextField(void)

void XmtRegisterXmToggleButton(void)

ARGUMENTS

None.

DESCRIPTION

These functions register certain Xmt and Motif widgets for use with XmtCreateChildren() and its related automatic widget creation functions, and also for use with the Xmt automatic dialog facilities. See Chapter 11, Automatic Widget Creation, and Chapter 29, Custom Dialogs and Automatic Dialog Management, for more information.

These widget classes could trivially be registered with XmtRegisterWidgetClass(), for example, but are singled out for custom registration functions because they each accept some form of user input (a text value, a Boolean selection, and so on). Because these widgets can accept user input, they are important in dialog boxes, and these functions register the widgets with XmtRegisterWidgetTypes() in order to specify ``set value'' and ``get value'' procedures that can be used by the Xmt automatic dialog management facilities to automatically transfer data to and from dialog boxes.

The table lists the data types that are handled by the ``get value'' and ``set value'' procedures registered with these functions. See Chapter 29, Custom Dialogs and Automatic Dialog Management, for details.
