NAME

       XmDirectionMatch   —   A   function  that  checks  for  a  specified  direction  component
       "XmDirectionMatch"

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       Boolean XmDirectionMatch (d1, d2)
               XmDirection     d1;
               XmDirection     d2;
       (void)

DESCRIPTION

       XmDirectionMatch compares two XmDirection values.  The function returns  a  Boolean  value
       depending  on  whether or not the two input values "match."  The simplest match is when d1
       and d2 are identical.  However, other matches are possible.  XmDirectionMatch attempts  to
       compare specified bits only; nonspecified bits automatically match.

       For  example,  suppose  that  d1  equals  XmTOP_TO_BOTTOM_RIGHT_TO_LEFT. In this case, the
       function will return True if d2 equals either XmRIGHT_TO_LEFT or XmTOP_TO_BOTTOM. However,
       the   function   will   return   False   if   d2   equals   XmTOP_TO_BOTTOM_LEFT_TO_RIGHT,
       XmBOTTOM_TO_TOP_RIGHT_TO_LEFT, or XmBOTTOM_TO_TOP_LEFT_TO_RIGHT.

       Note that direction can be thought of as having three components, a horizontal  component,
       a  vertical  component,  and the precedence among them. This means that in addition to the
       previously mentioned directions, the  function  will  still  return  False  if  d1  equals
       XmTOP_TO_BOTTOM_RIGHT_TO_LEFT and d2 equals XmRIGHT_TO_LEFT_TOP_TO_BOTTOM.

       d1        Specifies an XmDirection value.

       d2        Specifies an XmDirection value.

RETURN VALUES

       Returns True if d1 "matches" d2; otherwise, returns False.
