NAME

       XmStringTableToXmString -- A convenience function that converts a compound string table to a single compound string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       XmString XmStringTableToXmString(
       XmStringTable table,
       Cardinal count,
       XmString break_component);

DESCRIPTION

       XmStringTableToXmString takes as input table of compound strings and a specified string component (such as a tab) and returns a single com-
       pound string consisting of each of the elements of table concatenated together with a single copy of break_component inserted between  each
       element.

       table	 Specifies an XmStringTable containing the compound strings to be converted.

       count	 Specifies the number of compound strings in table.

       break_component
		 Specifies the XmStringComponent that will be inserted in the result to separate the individual elements of table. The most useful
		 types will be XmSTRING_COMPONENT_SEPARATOR and XmSTRING_COMPONENT_TAB.  Refer to the XmStringComponentType(3) reference page  for
		 a complete list of possible component types. Note, however, that the XmSTRING_COMPONENT_UNKNOWN component is not a possible type.

RETURN

       Returns	a  new XmString.  The function will allocate space to hold the returned compound string.  When the application no longer needs the
       returned compound string, the application should call XmStringFree.

NAME

       XmStringToXmStringTable -- A convenience function that converts a single compound string to a table of compound strings

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       Cardinal XmStringToXmStringTable(
       XmString string,
       XmString break_component,
       XmStringTable *table);

DESCRIPTION

       XmStringToXmStringTable	takes  as  input  a single compound string and a specified string component (such as a tab) and returns a table of
       compound strings consisting of portions of string delimited by components matching break_component. The components marking breaks will  not
       appear in the resulting table.

       string	 Specifies the XmString to be converted.

       break_component
		 Specifies the XmStringComponent that will be used to indicate where to split string to form the individual elements of table. The
		 most useful types will be XmSTRING_COMPONENT_SEPARATOR and XmSTRING_COMPONENT_TAB. Refer to the  XmStringComponentType(3)  refer-
		 ence  page for a complete list of possible component types. Note, however, that the XmSTRING_COMPONENT_UNKNOWN component is not a
		 possible type.

       table	 Returns the equivalent XmStringTable.	The function will allocate space to hold the returned XmStringTable.  When the applicaiton
		 no  longer needs the returned XmStringTable, the application should call XmStringFree once for each compound string in the table,
		 and then calling XtFree to deallocate the XmStringTable itself.

RETURN

       Returns the number of compound strings in table.
