XrmPutResource()														  XrmPutResource()

Name
  XrmPutResource - store a resource specification into a resource database.

Synopsis
  void XrmPutResource(database, specifier, type, value)
	  XrmDatabase *database;
	  char *specifier;
	  char *type;
	  XrmValue *value;

Arguments
  database  Specifies  a pointer to the resource database.  If database contains NULL, a new resource database is created and a pointer to it
	    is returned in database.  If a database is created, it is created in the current locale.

  specifier Specifies a complete or partial specification of the resource.

  type	    Specifies the type of the resource.

  value     Specifies the value of the resource.

Description
  XrmPutResource() is one of several functions which store data into a database.

  XrmPutResource() first converts specifier into a binding list and a quark list by calling XrmStringToBindingQuarkList(), and converts  type
  into	an  XrmRepresentation  by calling XrmStringToRepresentation.  Finally, it puts the data into the database.  If the specifier and type
  are not in the Host Portable Character encoding, the result is implementation-dependent.  The value is stored in the database without modi-
  fication.

  XrmPutResource(),  XrmQPutResource(),  XrmPutStringResource(), XrmQPutStringResource() and XrmPutLineResource() all store data into a data-
  base.  See the description of XrmQPutResource() for the most complete description of this process.

  For more information, see Volume One, Chapter 13, Managing User Preferences.

Structures
  XrmDatabase is a pointer to an opaque data type.

     typedef struct {
	 unsigned int	 size;
	 XPointer	 addr;
     } XrmValue, *XrmValuePtr;

NAME

       XrmPutResource, XrmQPutResource, XrmPutStringResource, XrmQPutStringResource, XrmPutLineResource - store database resources

SYNTAX

       void XrmPutResource(XrmDatabase *database, char *specifier, char *type, XrmValue *value);

       void XrmQPutResource(XrmDatabase *database, XrmBindingList bindings, XrmQuarkList quarks, XrmRepresentation type, XrmValue *value);

       void XrmPutStringResource(XrmDatabase *database, char *specifier, char *value);

       void XrmQPutStringResource(XrmDatabase *database, XrmBindingList bindings, XrmQuarkList quarks, char *value);

       void XrmPutLineResource(XrmDatabase *database, char *line);

ARGUMENTS

       bindings  Specifies a list of bindings.

       database  Specifies the resource database.

       line	 Specifies the resource name and value pair as a single string.

       quarks	 Specifies the complete or partial name or the class list of the resource.

       specifier Specifies a complete or partial specification of the resource.

       type	 Specifies the type of the resource.

       value	 Specifies the value of the resource, which is specified as a string.

DESCRIPTION

       If database contains NULL, XrmPutResource creates a new database and returns a pointer to it.  XrmPutResource is a convenience function
       that calls XrmStringToBindingQuarkList followed by:

       XrmQPutResource(database, bindings, quarks, XrmStringToQuark(type), value)

       If the specifier and type are not in the Host Portable Character Encoding, the result is implementation-dependent.  The value is stored in
       the database without modification.

       If database contains NULL, XrmQPutResource creates a new database and returns a pointer to it.  If a resource entry with the identical
       bindings and quarks already exists in the database, the previous type and value are replaced by the new specified type and value.  The
       value is stored in the database without modification.

       If database contains NULL, XrmPutStringResource creates a new database and returns a pointer to it.  XrmPutStringResource adds a resource
       with the specified value to the specified database.  XrmPutStringResource is a convenience function that first calls XrmStringToBind-
       ingQuarkList on the specifier and then calls XrmQPutResource, using a ``String'' representation type.  If the specifier is not in the Host
       Portable Character Encoding, the result is implementation-dependent.  The value is stored in the database without modification.

       If database contains NULL, XrmQPutStringResource creates a new database and returns a pointer to it.  XrmQPutStringResource is a conve-
       nience routine that constructs an XrmValue for the value string (by calling strlen to compute the size) and then calls XrmQPutResource,
       using a ``String'' representation type.	The value is stored in the database without modification.

       If database contains NULL, XrmPutLineResource creates a new database and returns a pointer to it.  XrmPutLineResource adds a single
       resource entry to the specified database.  The line should be in valid ResourceLine format (see section 15.1) terminated by a newline or
       null character; the database that results from using a string with incorrect syntax is implementation-dependent.  The string is parsed in
       the locale of the database.  If the ResourceName is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding, the result is implementation-dependent.
       Note that comment lines are not stored.
