XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar(3X)XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar(3X)NAMEXmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar - A RowColumn widget convenience creation func‐
tion
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/RowColumn.h>
Widget XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar (parent, name, arg...)
Widget parent;
String name;
DESCRIPTIONXmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar 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 to
one minus the number of buttons in the menu. Buttons are named and cre‐
ated in the order in which they are specified in the variable portion
of the argument list. Specifies the parent widget ID Specifies the
name of the created widget
The variable portion of the argument list consists of groups of argu‐
ments. 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: 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 this order: The
label string, of type XmString. The mnemonic, of type KeySym. 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 RowCol‐
umn widget. 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 this order: The resource name, of type
String. The type of the resource value supplied, of type String. The
resource value (or a pointer to the resource value, depending on the
type and size of the value), of type XtArgVal. The size of the
resource value in bytes, of type int. This is followed by one addi‐
tional 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 Tool‐
kit 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(3X).
RETURN VALUE
Returns the RowColumn widget ID.
