NAME

       XtAppSetTypeConverter, XtSetTypeConverter - register resource converter

SYNTAX

       void  XtAppSetTypeConverter(XtAppContext  app_context,  String  from_type,  String  to_type,  XtConverter
              converter, XtConvertArgList convert_args, Cardinal num_args, XtCacheType cache_type,  XtDestructor
              destructor);

       void   XtSetTypeConverter(String  from_type,  String  to_type,  XtConverter  converter,  XtConvertArgList
              convert_args, Cardinal num_args, XtCacheType cache_type, XtDestructor destructor);

ARGUMENTS

       app_context
                 Specifies the application context.

       converter Specifies the type converter procedure.

       convert_args
                 Specifies how to compute the additional arguments to the converter or NULL.

       from_type Specifies the source type.

       num_args  Specifies the number of additional arguments to the converter or zero.

       to_type   Specifies the destination type.

       cache_type
                 Specifies whether or not resources produced by this converter are sharable or  display-specific
                 and when they should be freed.

       destructor
                 Specifies  a  destroy  procedure  for  resources  produced  by  this  conversion, or NULL if no
                 additional action is required to deallocate resources produced by the converter.

DESCRIPTION

       XtSetTypeConverter registers the specified type converter and  destructor  in  all  application  contexts
       created  by  the  calling  process,  including  any  future  application  contexts  that  may be created.
       XtAppSetTypeConverter registers the specified type converter in the single application context specified.
       If the same from_type and to_type are specified in multiple calls to either  function,  the  most  recent
       overrides the previous ones.
