NAME

       XmInstallImage  —  A  pixmap  caching  function  that  adds  an  image  to the image cache
       "XmInstallImage" "pixmaps"

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       Boolean XmInstallImage(
       XImage * image,
       char * image_name);

DESCRIPTION

       XmInstallImage stores an image in an image cache that can later  be  used  to  generate  a
       pixmap.   Part  of  the  installation  process is to extend the resource converter used to
       reference these images. The resource converter is given the image name so that  the  image
       can  be  referenced  in  a  .Xdefaults file.  Since an image can be referenced by a widget
       through its pixmap resources, it is up to the application to  ensure  that  the  image  is
       installed before the widget is created.

       image     Points  to  the  image structure to be installed.  The installation process does
                 not make a local copy of  the  image.  Therefore,  the  application  should  not
                 destroy the image until it is uninstalled from the caching functions.

       image_name
                 Specifies  a  string  that  the  application  uses  to  name  the  image.  After
                 installation, this name can be used in .Xdefaults for referencing the  image.  A
                 local copy of the name is created by the image caching functions.

       The  image  caching functions provide a set of eight preinstalled images.  These names can
       be used within a .Xdefaults file for generating pixmaps for the resource  for  which  they
       are provided.
