NAME

       XmRepTypeAddReverse  —  A  representation type manager function that installs the reverse converter for a
       previously registered representation type "XmRepTypeAddReverse" "representation type  manager  functions"
       "XmRepTypeAddReverse"

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/RepType.h>
       void XmRepTypeAddReverse(
       XmRepTypeId rep_type_id);

DESCRIPTION

       XmRepTypeAddReverse  installs  the reverse converter for a previously registered representation type. The
       reverse converter takes a numerical representation type value and returns its corresponding string value.
       Certain  applications  may  require this capability to obtain a string value to display on a screen or to
       build a resource file.

       The values argument of the XmRepTypeRegister function can be used to register representation  types  with
       nonconsecutive  values  or with duplicate names for the same value. If the list of numerical values for a
       representation type contains duplicate  values,  the  reverse  converter  uses  the  first  name  in  the
       value_names  list  that  matches  the  specified  numeric  value. For example, if a value_names array has
       cancel, proceed, and abort, and the corresponding  values  array  contains  0,  1,  and  0,  the  reverse
       converter will return cancel instead of abort for an input value of 0.

       rep_type_id
                 Specifies the identification number of the representation type
