NAME

       XtAppSetTypeConverter, XtSetTypeConverter - register resource converter

SYNTAX

       #include <X11/Intrinsic.h>

       void XtAppSetTypeConverter(XtAppContext app_context, const char *from_type, const char *
              to_type, XtTypeConverter converter, XtConvertArgList convert_args, Cardinal
              num_args, XtCacheType cache_type, XtDestructor destructor);

       void XtSetTypeConverter(const char *from_type, const char *to_type, XtTypeConverter
              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.
