     NAME
          XmGetSecondaryResourceData - A function that provides access
          to secondary widget resource data

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/Xm.h>

          Cardinal XmGetSecondaryResourceData (widget_class, secondary_data_return)
               WidgetClass         widget_class;
               XmSecondaryResourceData**secondary_data_return;

     DESCRIPTION
          Some Motif widget classes (such as Gadget, Text, and
          VendorShell) have resources that are not accessible via the
          functions XtGetResourceList and XtGetConstraintResourceList.
          In order to retrieve the descriptions of these resources, an
          application must use XmGetSecondaryResourceData.

          When a widget class has such resources, this function
          provides descriptions of the resources in one or more data
          structures.  XmGetSecondaryResourceData takes a widget class
          argument and returns the number of these data structures
          associated with the widget class.  If the return value is
          greater than 0, the function allocates and fills an array of
          pointers to the corresponding data structures.  It returns
          this array at the address that is the value of the
          secondary_data_return argument.

          The type XmSecondaryResourceData is a pointer to a structure
          with two members that are useful to an application:
          resources, of type XtResourceList, and num_resources, of
          type Cardinal.  The resources member is a list of the widget
          resources that are not accessible using Xt functions.  The
          num_resources member is the length of the resources list.

          If the return value is greater than 0,
          XmGetSecondaryResourceData allocates memory that the
          application must free.  Use XtFree to free the resource list
          in each structure (the value of the resources member), the
          structures themselves, and the array of pointers to the
          structures (the array whose address is
          secondary_data_return).

          widget_class
               Specifies the widget class for which secondary resource
               data is to be retrieved.

          secondary_data_return
               Specifies a pointer to an array of
               XmSecondaryResourceData pointers to be returned by this
               function.  If the widget class has no secondary
               resource data (i.e., if the value returned by the
               function is 0), the function returns no meaningful
               value for this argument.

     RETURN VALUE
          Returns the number of secondary resource data structures
          associated with this widget class.

     EXAMPLE
          The following example uses XmGetSecondaryResourceData to
          print the names of the secondary resources of the Motif Text
          widget and then frees the data allocated by the function:
          XmSecondaryResourceData * block_array ; Cardinal num_blocks,
          i, j ; if (num_blocks = XmGetSecondaryResourceData
          (xmTextWidgetClass,
                                                       &block_array))
          {
            for (i = 0; i < num_blocks; i++) {
              for (j = 0 ; j < block_array[i]->num_resources; j++) {
                printf("%s\n", block_array[i]-
          >resources[j].resource_name);
              }
              XtFree((char*)block_array[i]->resources);
              XtFree((char*)block_array[i]);
            }
            XtFree((char*)block_array); }
