XDefaultString() XDefaultString()
Name
XDefaultString - return the default string used for text conversion.
Synopsis
char *XDefaultString( )
Returns
The string used for unconvertible characters.
Availability
Release 5 and later.
Description
XDefaultString() returns the default string used by Xlib for text conversion (for example, in XmbTextListToTextProperty()). The default
string is the string in the current locale which is output when an unconvertible character is found during text conversion. If the string
returned by XDefaultString() is the empty string (""), no character is output in the converted text. XDefaultString() does not return
NULL.
The string returned by XDefaultString() is independent of the default string for text drawing; see XCreateFontSet() to obtain the default
string for an XFontSet.
The returned string is NULL-terminated. It is owned by Xlib and should not be modified or freed by the client. It may be freed after the
current locale is changed. Until freed, it will not be modified by Xlib.
