NAME

       XmParseTable  —  Data  type  for a compound string parse table "XmParseTable" "data types"
       "XmParseTable"

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>

DESCRIPTION

       XmParseTable  is  the  data  type  for  an  array  of  parse  mappings  (objects  of  type
       XmParseMapping).

       A parse table is used by some routines that parse and unparse compound strings.  The table
       is an ordered list of parse mappings.  A parsing routine that uses a parse table scans the
       input  text  and  searches the parse mappings, in order, for one containing a pattern that
       matches the input text.  The matching parse mapping  supplies  a  compound  string  to  be
       included in the compound string under construction.

       An  unparsing  routine  that uses a parse table searches the parse mappings, in order, for
       one containing a compound string that matches the input compound  string.   The  unparsing
       routine  can  then  include  the  parse  mapping's  text  pattern in the output text under
       construction.
