XtCallActionProc(3) XT FUNCTIONS XtCallActionProc(3)

NAME

XtCallActionProc - invoke an action procedure directly

SYNTAX

void XtCallActionProc(Widget widget, String action, XEvent* event,
String* params, Cardinal num_params);

ARGUMENTS

widget Specifies the widget in which the action is to be invoked.
Must be of class core of any subclass thereof.

action Specifies the name of the action routine.

event Specifies the contents of the event passed to the action
routine.

params Specifies the contents of the params passed to the action
routine.

num_params
Specifies the num of entries in params.

DESCRIPTION

XtCallActionProc searches for the named action routine in the same
manner and order as translation tables are bound. If found, the
action routine is invoked with the specified widget, event pointer,
and parameters. It is the responsibility of the caller to ensure that
the contents of event, params, and num_params arguments are
appropriate for the specified routine, and if necessary, that the
specified widget is realized or sensitive. If the named action
routine cannot be found, XtCallActionProc generates a warning message
and returns.
