As shipped in IRIX 6.5.19. Added in IRIX 6.5.19.

     NAME
          MrmRegisterNames - Registers the values associated with the
          names referenced in UIL (for example, UIL callback function
          names or UIL identifier names)

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Mrm/MrmPublic.h>

          Cardinal MrmRegisterNames(register_list, register_count)
               MrmRegisterArglist  register_list;
               MrmCount            register_count;

     DESCRIPTION
          The MrmRegisterNames function registers a vector of names
          and associated values for access in MRM.  The values can be
          callback functions, pointers to user-defined data, or any
          other values.  The information provided is used to resolve
          symbolic references occurring in UID files to their run-time
          values.  For callbacks, this information provides the
          procedure address required by the Motif Toolkit.  For names
          used as identifiers in UIL, this information provides any
          run-time mapping the application needs.

          This function is similar to MrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy,
          except that the scope of the names registered by
          MrmRegisterNamesInHierarchy is limited to the hierarchy
          specified in the call to that function, whereas the names
          registered by MrmRegisterNames have global scope.  When MRM
          looks up a name, it first tries to find the name among those
          registered for the given hierarchy.  If that lookup fails,
          it tries to find the name among those registered globally.

          register_list
               Specifies a list of name/value pairs for the names to
               be registered.  Each name is a case-sensitive, NULL-
               terminated ASCII string.  Each value is a 32-bit
               quantity, interpreted as a procedure address if the
               name is a callback function, and uninterpreted
               otherwise.

          register_count
               Specifies the number of entries in register_list.

          The names in the list are case-sensitive.  The list can be
          either ordered or unordered.

          Callback functions registered through MrmRegisterNames can
          be either regular or creation callbacks.  Regular callbacks
          have declarations determined by Motif Toolkit and user
          requirements.  Creation callbacks have the same format as
          any other callback:  void CallBackProc(widget_id, tag,
          callback_data)
               Widget              *widget_id;
               Opaque              tag
               XmAnyCallbackStruct *callback_data;

          widget_id
               Specifies the widget ID associated with the widget performing the
               callback (as in any callback function).

          tag  Specifies the tag value (as in any callback function).

          callback_data
               Specifies a widget-specific data structure.
               This data structure has a minimum of two members: event and reason.
               The reason member is always set to
               MrmCR_CREATE.

          Note that the widget name and parent are available from the widget
          record accessible through
          widget_id.

     RETURN VALUE
          This function returns one of these status return constants:

          MrmSUCCESS
               The function executed successfully.

          MrmFAILURE
               The function failed.
