XmTextFieldReplaceWcs(3X)XmTextFieldReplaceWcs(3X)NAME
XmTextFieldReplaceWcs - A TextField function that replaces part of a wide character string in a TextField widget
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/TextF.h>
void XmTextFieldReplaceWcs (widget, from_pos, to_pos, wcstring)
Widget widget;
XmTextPosition from_pos;
XmTextPosition to_pos;
wchar_t *wcstring;
DESCRIPTION
XmTextFieldReplaceWcs replaces part of the wide character string in the TextField widget. The character positions begin at zero and are
numbered sequentially from the beginning of the text.
An example text replacement would be to replace the second and third characters in the text string. To accomplish this, the parameter
from_pos must be 1 and to_pos must be 3. To insert a string after the fourth character, both parameters, from_pos and to_pos, must be 4.
This routine calls the widget's XmNvalueChangedCallback and verification callbacks, either XmNmodifyVerifyCallback or XmNmodifyVerifyCall-
backWcs, or both. If both verification callback lists are registered, the procedures of the XmNmodifyVerifyCallback list are executed
first and the resulting data is passed to the XmNmodifyVerifyCallbackWcs callbacks. Specifies the TextField widget ID Specifies the start
position of the text to be replaced Specifies the end position of the text to be replaced Specifies the wide character string value to be
added to the TextField widget
