NAME
       MrmFetchLiteral - Fetches a literal from a UID file

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Mrm/MrmPublic.h>

       int MrmFetchLiteral(hierarchy_id, index, display, value, type)
	       MrmHierarchy hierarchy_id;
	       String index;
	       Display *display;
	       XtPointer *value;
	       MrmCode *type;

DESCRIPTION
       The  MrmFetchLiteral function reads and returns the value and type of a literal (named value) that is stored as a public resource in a sin-
       gle UID file. This function returns a pointer to the value of the literal.  For example, an integer is always returned as a pointer  to	an
       integer, and a string is always returned as a pointer to a string.

       Applications  should  not  use MrmFetchLiteral for fetching icon or color literals. If this is attempted, MrmFetchLiteral returns an error.
       Specifies the ID of the UID hierarchy that contains the specified literal. The hierarchy_id was returned in a previous call to MrmOpenHier-
       archyPerDisplay.   Specifies  the UIL name of the literal (pixmap) to fetch. You must define this name in UIL as an exported value.  Speci-
       fies the display used for the pixmap. The display argument specifies the connection to the X server. For more information  on  the  Display
       structure  see  the Xlib function XOpenDisplay.	Returns the ID of the named literal's value.  Returns the named literal's data type. Types
       are defined in the include file <Mrm/MrmPublic.h>.

RETURN VALUE
       This function returns one of these status return constants: The function executed successfully.	The hierarchy ID was invalid.  The literal
       was not found in the UIL file.  The caller tried to fetch a literal of a type not supported by this function.  The function failed.
