xltgetvalues

XltGetValues(3X)														  XltGetValues(3X)

NAME

       XltGetValues - Convenience safety wrapper for XtGetValues(3X).

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xlt/Xlt.h>

       void XltGetValues(w, a, n)
	    Widget w;
	    Arg a[];
	    Cardinal n;

DESCRIPTION

       XltGetValues simply asserts (using XltCheckArgSize(3X)) that a contains at least n elements and then calls XtGetValues(3X).

       An  alternative	is to use XtVaGetValues(3X).  XtVaGetValues(3X) makes the machine work harder but few would notice any performance differ-
       ence.  However, if you already have an application that makes extensive use of XtGetValues(3X), using  XltGetValues  will  be  easier  than
       changing everything to XtVaGetValues(3X).

       Note that the a parameter must be an array of Arg, a pointer to an Arg will not work.

RETURN VALUE

       None but abort(3) may be called.

SEE ALSO

       XltCheckArgSize(3X), XltSetValues(3X), assert(3).

																  XltGetValues(3X)
