XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar(library call)

NAME

XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar -- A RowColumn widget convenience creation
function

SYNOPSIS

#include <Xm/RowColumn.h>
Widget XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar(
Widget parent,
String name);

DESCRIPTION

XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar creates an instance of a RowColumn widget of
type XmMENU_BAR and returns the associated widget ID. This routine
uses the ANSI C variable-length argument list (varargs) calling
convention.

This routine creates a MenuBar and its CascadeButtonGadget children.
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

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. Following are the possible first
arguments in each group of varargs:

XmVaCASCADEBUTTON
This is followed by two additional arguments. The set
specifies one button in the MenuBar and some of its
resource values. Following are the additional two
arguments, in order:

label The label string, of type XmString

mnemonic The mnemonic, of type KeySym

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.
