XtVaAppCreateShell()													      XtVaAppCreateShell()

Name
  XtVaAppCreateShell - create a top-level widget that is the root of a widget tree, using varargs argument style.

Synopsis
  Widget XtVaAppCreateShell(application_name, application_class, widget_class, display, ..., NULL)
	 String application_name;
	 String application_class;
	 WidgetClass widget_class;
	 Display *display;

Inputs
  application_name
	    Specifies the resource name of the shell widget.

  application_class
	    Specifies the class name of this application.

  widget_class
	    Specifies the widget class for the top-level widget.

  display   Specifies the display.

  ..., NULL A NULL-terminated variable-length list of resource name/value pairs to override any other resource specifications.

Returns
  A toplevel shell widget of the specified class.

Availability
  Release 4 and later.

Description
  XtVaAppCreateShell()	creates  a top-level shell widget that is the root of a widget tree and a resource name hierarchy (i.e. a widget that
  has no parent).  It is identical to XtAppCreateShell() except that the args array of resource names and values and the num_args argument of
  that function are replaced with a NULL-terminated variable-length argument list.

  See  XtAppCreateShell()  for more information on this function.  See XtVaSetValues() for more information on using variable-length argument
  lists to specify resources.

Usage
  Most applications create secondary top-level shells with XtCreatePopupShell() which creates a widget in the same resource hierarchy as  the
  rest	of  the  application.	Most applications can use XtAppInitialize() or XtVaAppInitialize() to initialize the toolkit and create their
  first shell.

NAME

       XtAppCreateShell, XtVaAppCreateShell - create top-level widget instance

SYNTAX

       Widget XtAppCreateShell(application_name, application_class, widget_class, display, args, num_args)
	     String application_name;
	     String application_class;
	     WidgetClass widget_class;
	     Display *display;
	     ArgList args;
	     Cardinal num_args;

       Widget XtVaAppCreateShell(application_name, application_class, widget_class, display, ...)
	     String application_name;
	     String application_class;
	     WidgetClass widget_class;
	     Display *display;

ARGUMENTS

       application_name
		 Specifies the name of the application instance.

       application_class
		 Specifies the class name of this application.

       widget_class
		 Specifies the widget class that the application top-level widget should be.

       display	 Specifies the display from which to get the resources.

       args	 Specifies the argument list from which to get the resources.

       num_args  Specifies the number of arguments in the argument list.

       ...	 Specifies the variable argument list from which to get the resources.

DESCRIPTION

       The XtAppCreateShell function saves the specified application name and application class for qualifying all widget resource specifiers.
       The application name and application class are used as the left-most components in all widget resource names for this application.  XtApp-
       CreateShell should be used to create a new logical application within a program or to create a shell on another display.  In the first
       case, it allows the specification of a new root in the resource hierarchy.  In the second case, it uses the resource database associated
       with the other display.

       Note that the widget returned by XtAppCreateShell has the WM_COMMAND property set for session managers (see Chapter 4).
