NAME

       FcPatternBuild, FcPatternVaBuild, FcPatternVapBuild - Create patterns from arguments

SYNOPSIS

       #include <fontconfig/fontconfig.h>

       FcPattern * FcPatternBuild (FcPattern *pattern, ...);

       FcPattern * FcPatternVaBuild (FcPattern *pattern, va_list va);

       void FcPatternVapBuild (FcPattern *result, FcPattern *pattern, va_list va);

DESCRIPTION

       Builds  a  pattern using a list of objects, types and values.  Each value to be entered in
       the pattern is specified with three arguments:

       1. Object name, a string describing the property to be added.

       2. Object type, one of the FcType enumerated values

       3. Value, not an FcValue, but the raw type as passed  to  any  of  the  FcPatternAdd<type>
          functions.  Must match the type of the second argument.

       The  argument  list  is terminated by a null object name, no object type nor value need be
       passed for this.  The values are added to `pattern', if `pattern' is null, a  new  pattern
       is created.  In either case, the pattern is returned. Example

       pattern = FcPatternBuild (0, FC_FAMILY, FcTypeString, "Times", (char *) 0);

       FcPatternVaBuild  is  used  when the arguments are already in the form of a varargs value.
       FcPatternVapBuild is a macro version of FcPatternVaBuild which returns its result directly
       in the result variable.
