NAME
       DtEditorSetContents -- place data into a DtEditor widget

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Dt/Editor.h>
       DtEditorErrorCode DtEditorSetContents(
       Widget widget,
       DtEditorContentRec *data);

DESCRIPTION
       The  DtEditorSetContents  function places a NULL-terminated string, wide character string or sized buffer into a DtEditor widget.  Any data
       currently in the DtEditor widget is lost.  The data is transferred to the DtEditor widget using a DtEditorContentRec, which  indicates  the
       type  of  data  being  transferred  along with the actual data.	After the data is placed into the DtEditor widget, the insertion cursor is
       positioned at the first character.

       The widget argument specifies the DtEditor widget ID.

       The data argument is a pointer to a data structure containing the new contents of widget.

       For a complete definition of the DtEditor widget and its associated resources, see DtEditor(3).

       For a complete definition of DtEditorContentRec, see Dt/Editor.h - DtEditor(5).

RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, the DtEditorSetContents function returns one of the following values:

       DtEDITOR_NO_ERRORS
		 The data was loaded sucessfully.

       DtEDITOR_NULLS_REMOVED
		 NULL characters were found and removed from the data.

       Otherwise, if the DtEditorSetContents function cannot load the data in the DtEditor widget, it returns one of the following values:

       DtEDITOR_INVALID_TYPE
		 The Type field is unrecognized.

       DtEDITOR_ILLEGAL_SIZE
		 The size of the buffer passed in is negative.

       DtEDITOR_NULL_ITEM
		 The buffer is NULL.

       DtEDITOR_INSUFFICIENT_MEMORY
		 Not enough system memory is available to load the data.

EXAMPLES
       The following code segment sets the contents of a DtEditor widget to ``The quick brown fox.''

       Widget		       editor;
       DtEditorContentRec      cr;
       DtEditorErrorCode       status;
       char		       *sampleString="The quick brown fox";
       cr.type = DtEDITOR_TEXT;
       cr.value.string = sampleString;
       status = DtEditorSetContents(editor, &cr);
       if (status != DtEDITOR_NO_ERRORS && status != DtEDITOR_NULLS_REMOVED) {
	       printf("Unable to set contents of the widget
");

APPLICATION USAGE
       If the data is in a disk file, rather than in memory, the application should use DtEditorSetContentsFromFile(3).
