XtDisplayStringConversionWarning(3Xt)									     XtDisplayStringConversionWarning(3Xt)

NAME

       XtDisplayStringConversionWarning - issue a conversion warning message

SYNOPSIS

       void XtDisplayStringConversionWarning(display, from_value, to_type)
	       Display* display;
	       String from_value, to_type;

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies the display connection with which the conversion is associated.  Specifies the string that could not be converted.  Specifies the
       target representation type requested.

DESCRIPTION

       The XtDisplayStringConversionWarning function issues a warning message using XtAppWarningMsg with name  "conversionError",  type  "string",
       class "XtToolkitError", and the default message string "Cannot convert "from_value" to type to_type".

       To issue other types of warning or error messages, the type converter should use XtAppWarningMsg or XtAppErrorMsg .

NAME

       XtConvert, XtDirectConvert - invoke resource converters

SYNTAX

       void XtConvert(w, from_type, from, to_type, to_return)
	   Widget w;
	   String from_type;
	   XrmValuePtr from;
	   String to_type;
	   XrmValuePtr to_return;

       void XtDirectConvert(converter, args, num_args, from, to_return)
	   XtConverter converter;
	   XrmValuePtr args;
	   Cardinal num_args;
	   XrmValuePtr from;
	   XrmValuePtr to_return;

ARGUMENTS

       the conversion (often NULL)

       args	 Specifies the argument list that contains the additional arguments needed to perform.

       converter Specifies the conversion procedure that is to be called.

       from	 Specifies the value to be converted.

       from_type Specifies the source type.

       num_args  Specifies the number of additional arguments (often zero).

       to_type	 Specifies the destination type.

       to_return Returns the converted value.

       w	 Specifies the widget to use for additional arguments (if any are needed).

DESCRIPTION

       The XtConvert function looks up the type converter registered to convert from_type to to_type, computes any additional arguments needed,
       and then calls XtDirectConvert.	XtConvert has been replaced by XtConvertAndStore.

       The XtDirectConvert function looks in the converter cache to see if this conversion procedure has been called with the specified arguments.
       If so, it returns a descriptor for information stored in the cache; otherwise, it calls the converter and enters the result in the cache.

       Before calling the specified converter, XtDirectConvert sets the return value size to zero and the return value address to NULL.  To deter-
       mine if the conversion was successful, the client should check to_return.address for non-NULL.  XtDirectConvert has been replaced by
       XtCallConverter.
