.TH "XmStringGenerate" 3
.SH "NAME"
\fBXmStringGenerate\fP \(em A convenience function that generates a compound string
"XmStringGenerate"
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
.nf
#include <Xm/Xm\&.h>
\fBXmString \fBXmStringGenerate\fP\fR(
\fBXtPointer \fBtext\fR\fR,
\fBXmStringTag \fBtag\fR\fR,
\fBXmTextType \fBtype\fR\fR,
\fBXmStringTag \fBrendition\fR\fR);
.fi
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBXmStringGenerate\fP calls the \fBXmStringParseText\fP
function with a default parse table of entries
consisting of \&'\n\&', which maps to
Separator,
and \&'\t\&', which maps to Tab\&.
Matching \fBRENDITION_BEGIN\fP and
\fBRENDITION_END\fP components containing \fIrendition\fP are placed
around the resulting \fBXmString\fR\&.
.IP "\fItext\fP" 10
Specifies a NULL-terminated string containing characters of a type
determined by \fItype\fP\&.
.IP "\fItag\fP" 10
Specifies the tag to be used in creating the result\&. The type of tag
created (charset or locale) depends on the text type and the
value given\&. If specified value is NULL, and \fItype\fP indicates
that a charset tag should be created, then the tag will have the
value of
\fBXmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG\fP\&.
If \fItag\fP is NULL, and \fItype\fP indicates a
locale tag, then the tag will have the value of \fB_MOTIF_DEFAULT_LOCALE\fP\&.
.IP "\fItype\fP" 10
Specifies the type of text to be passed in, and the tag type\&.
If a locale tag should be created, then \fItype\fP has a value of
either \fBXmMULTIBYTE_TEXT\fP or \fBXmWIDECHAR_TEXT\fP\&. If a
charset should be created, \fItype\fP has a value of
\fBXmCHARSET_TEXT\fP\&.
.IP "\fIrendition\fP" 10
Specifies the rendition tag to be used in an
\fBXmSTRING_COMPONENT_RENDITION_BEGIN\fP component which will begin
the returned string and in an \fBXmSTRING_COMPONENT_RENDITION_END\fP
component which will end it\&.
If \fIrendition\fP is NULL, no rendition tag is placed\&.
.SH "RETURN"
.PP
Returns a new compound string\&.
The function will allocate space to hold the returned compound string\&.
When the application no longer needs the returned compound string, the
application should call \fBXmStringFree\fP\&.
.SH "RELATED"
.PP
\fBXmString\fP(3) and
\fBXmStringFree\fP(3)\&.
