As shipped in IRIX 6.5.22. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.
NAME XmVaCreateSimplePopupMenu -- A RowColumn widget convenience creation func- tion SYNOPSIS #include <Xm/RowColumn.h> Widget XmVaCreateSimplePopupMenu (parent, name, callback, arg...) Widget parent; String name; XtCallbackProccallback; VERSION This page documents version 1.2 of the Motif library. DESCRIPTION XmVaCreateSimplePopupMenu creates an instance of a RowColumn widget of type XmMENU_POPUP and returns the associated widget ID. This routine uses the ANSI C variable-length argument list (varargs) calling convention. This routine creates a Popup MenuPane and its button children. The name of each button is button_n, where n is an integer from 0 to one minus the num- ber of buttons in the menu. The name of each separator is separator_n, where n is an integer from 0 to one minus the number of separators in the menu. The name of each title is label_n, where n is an integer from 0 to one minus the number of titles in the menu. Buttons, separators, and ti- tles are named and created in the order in which they are specified in the variable portion of the argument list. parent Specifies the widget ID of the parent of the MenuShell name Specifies the name of the created widget callback Specifies a callback procedure to be called when a button is acti- vated or when its value changes. This callback function is added to each button after creation. For a CascadeButtonGadget or a PushBut- tonGadget, the callback is added as the button's XmNactivateCall- back, and it is called when the button is activated. For a Toggle- ButtonGadget, the callback is added as the button's XmNvalueChanged- Callback, and it is called when the button's value changes. The button number is returned in the client_data field. The variable portion of the argument list consists of groups of arguments. The first argument in each group is a constant or a string and determines which arguments follow in that group. The last argument in the list must be NULL. Following are the possible first arguments in each group of varargs: XmVaCASCADEBUTTON This is followed by two additional arguments. The set specifies one button in the PopupMenu and some of its resource values. The button created is a CascadeButtonGadget. Following are the additional two arguments, in this order: label The label string, of type XmString. mnemonic The mnemonic, of type KeySym. XmVaPUSHBUTTON This is followed by four additional arguments. The set specifies one button in the PopupMenu and some of its resource values. The button created is a PushButtonGadget. Following are the additional four arguments, in this order: label The label string, of type XmString. mnemonic The mnemonic, of type KeySym. accelerator The accelerator, of type String. accelerator_text The accelerator text, of type XmString. XmVaRADIOBUTTON This is followed by four additional arguments. The set specifies one button in the PopupMenu and some of its resource values. The button created is a ToggleButtonGadget. Following are the addi- tional four arguments, in this order: label The label string, of type XmString. mnemonic The mnemonic, of type KeySym. accelerator The accelerator, of type String. accelerator_text The accelerator text, of type XmString. XmVaCHECKBUTTON This is followed by four additional arguments. The set specifies one button in the PopupMenu and some of its resource values. The button created is a ToggleButtonGadget. Following are the addi- tional four arguments, in this order: label The label string, of type XmString. mnemonic The mnemonic, of type KeySym. accelerator The accelerator, of type String. accelerator_text The accelerator text, of type XmString. XmVaTITLE This is followed by one additional argument. The pair specifies a title LabelGadget in the PopupMenu. Following is the additional ar- gument: title The title string, of type XmString. XmVaSEPARATOR This is followed by no additional arguments. It specifies one sepa- rator in the PopupMenu. XmVaDOUBLE_SEPARATOR This is followed by no additional arguments. It specifies one sepa- rator in the PopupMenu. The separator type is XmDOUBLE_LINE. resource_name This is followed by one additional argument, the value of the re- source, of type XtArgVal. The pair specifies a resource and its value for the RowColumn widget. XtVaTypedArg This is followed by four additional arguments. The set specifies a resource and its value for the RowColumn widget. A resource type conversion is performed if necessary. Following are the additional four arguments, in this order: name The resource name, of type String. type The type of the resource value supplied, of type String. value The resource value (or a pointer to the resource value, de- pending on the type and size of the value), of type XtArgVal. size The size of the resource value in bytes, of type int. XtVaNestedList This is followed by one additional argument of type XtVarArgsList. This argument is a nested list of varargs returned by XtVaCre- ateArgsList. For more information on variable-length argument lists, see the X Toolkit Intrinsics documentation. A number of resources exist specifically for use with this and other simple menu creation routines. For a complete definition of RowColumn and its as- sociated resources, see XmRowColumn(3X). RETURN VALUE Returns the RowColumn widget ID.
