xtparsetranslationtable(3x)
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.
