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.

       XmParseMapping(3), XmParseTableFree(3), and XmString(3).
