XtAppSetFallbackResources(3) XT FUNCTIONS XtAppSetFallbackResources(3)

NAME

XtAppSetFallbackResources - set fallback resources

SYNTAX

void XtAppSetFallbackResources(XtAppContext app_context, String*
specification_list);

ARGUMENTS

app_context
Specifies the application context.

specification_list
Specifies a NULL-terminated list of resource specifications
to pre-load the database, or NULL.

DESCRIPTION

Each entry in specification_list points to a string in the format
XrmPutLineResource. following a call to XtAppSetFallbackResources,
when a resource database is being created for a particular screen and
the Intrinsics are not able to find or read an application-specific
class resource file and if specification_list is not NULL the
resource specification in specification_list will be merged into the
screen resource database in place of the application-specific class
resource file. XtAppSetFallbackResources is not required to copy
specification_list; the caller must ensure that the contents of the
list and the strings addressed by the list remain valid until all
displays are initialized or until XtAppSetFallbackResources is called
again. The value NULL for specification_list removes any previous
fallback resource specification for the application context. The
intended use for fallback resources is to provide a minimal number of
resources that will make the application usable (or at least
terminate with helpful diagnostic messages) when some problem exists
in finding and loading the application defaults file.
