NAME

       DXmCvtOStoCS - Converts a string in the operating-system-specific format to a compound string.

SYNOPSIS

       XmString DXmCvtOStoCS(
	       Opaque os_string,
	       long *byte_count,
	       long *status );

PARAMETERS

       A  pointer to the input string.	The number of bytes in the length of the output string.  The status of the conversion procedure, indicated
       by one of the following values:

	      -----------------------------------------------------------
	      Value		     Description
	      -----------------------------------------------------------
	      DXmCvtStatusOK	     The conversion was successful.
	      DXmCvtStatusDataLoss   Data was lost  during  the  conver-
				     sion.
	      DXmCvtStatusFail	     The conversion was not successful.
	      -----------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION

       The  DXmCvtOStoCS  routine converts a string in the operating-system-specific format to a compound string. The user must free the string by
       using the Toolkit routine XmStringFree.

RETURN VALUES

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.
