XtAppSetFallbackResources(3) XT FUNCTIONS XtAppSetFallbackResources(3)
NAME
XtAppSetFallbackResources - set fallback resources
SYNTAX
void XtAppSetFallbackResources(XtAppContext app_context, String* specification_list);
ARGUMENTS
app_context
Specifies the application context.
specification_list
Specifies a NULL-terminated list of resource specifications to pre-load the database, or NULL.
DESCRIPTION
Each entry in specification_list points to a string in the format XrmPutLineResource. following a call to XtAppSetFallbackResources, when
a resource database is being created for a particular screen and the Intrinsics are not able to find or read an application-specific class
resource file and if specification_list is not NULL the resource specification in specification_list will be merged into the screen
resource database in place of the application-specific class resource file. XtAppSetFallbackResources is not required to copy specifica-
tion_list; the caller must ensure that the contents of the list and the strings addressed by the list remain valid until all displays are
initialized or until XtAppSetFallbackResources is called again. The value NULL for specification_list removes any previous fallback
resource specification for the application context. The intended use for fallback resources is to provide a minimal number of resources
that will make the application usable (or at least terminate with helpful diagnostic messages) when some problem exists in finding and
loading the application defaults file.
