NAME
XtParseTranslationTable, XtAugmentTranslations, XtOverrideTranslations, XtUninstallTranslations - manage translation tables
SYNTAX
-
- XtTranslations XtParseTranslationTable(String table);
-
- void XtAugmentTranslations(Widget w, XtTranslations translations);
-
- void XtOverrideTranslations(Widget w, XtTranslations
translations);
-
- void XtUninstallTranslations(Widget w);
ARGUMENTS
- table
-
Specifies the translation table to compile.
- translations
-
Specifies the compiled translation table to merge in (must not be NULL).
- w
-
Specifies the widget into which the new translations are to be merged or removed.
DESCRIPTION
The
XtParseTranslationTable
function compiles the translation table into the opaque internal representation
of type
XtTranslations.
Note that if an empty translation table is required for any purpose,
one can be obtained by calling
XtParseTranslationTable
and passing an empty string.
The
XtAugmentTranslations
function nondestructively merges the new translations into the existing widget
translations.
If the new translations contain an event or event sequence that
already exists in the widget's translations,
the new translation is ignored.
The
XtOverrideTranslations
function destructively merges the new translations into the existing widget
translations.
If the new translations contain an event or event sequence that
already exists in the widget's translations,
the new translation is merged in and override the widget's translation.
To replace a widget's translations completely, use
XtSetValues
on the XtNtranslations resource and specify a compiled translation table
as the value.
The
XtUninstallTranslations
function causes the entire translation table for widget to be removed.
