NAME

XmCvtStringToUnitType -- A function that converts a string to a unit-
type value

SYNOPSIS

#include <Xm/Xm.h>
void XmCvtStringToUnitType(
XrmValuePtr args,
Cardinal * num_args,
XrmValue * from_val,
XrmValue * to_val);

DESCRIPTION

XmCvtStringToUnitType converts a string to a unit type. Refer to the
reference pages for XmGadget, XmManager, or XmPrimitive for a
description of the valid unit types. Use of this function as a
resource converter is obsolete. It has been replaced by a new
resource converter that uses the RepType facility.

args Specifies a list of additional XrmValue arguments to the
converter if additional context is needed to perform the
conversion. For example, the string-to-font converter needs
the widget's screen and the string-to-pixel converter needs
the widget's screen and color map. This argument is often
NULL.

num_args Specifies the number of additional XrmValue arguments. This
argument is often zero.

from_val Specifies the value to convert

to_val Specifies the descriptor to use to return the converted
value
