NAME

6       XmParseTable — Data type for a compound string parse table
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
10

DESCRIPTION

12       XmParseTable  is  the data type for an array of parse mappings (objects
13       of type XmParseMapping).
14
15       A parse table is used by some routines that parse and unparse  compound
16       strings.   The  table  is an ordered list of parse mappings.  A parsing
17       routine that uses a parse table scans the input text and  searches  the
18       parse mappings, in order, for one containing a pattern that matches the
19       input text.  The matching parse mapping supplies a compound  string  to
20       be included in the compound string under construction.
21
22       An  unparsing  routine  that uses a parse table searches the parse map‐
23       pings, in order, for one containing a compound string that matches  the
24       input  compound  string.   The  unparsing  routine can then include the
25       parse mapping's text pattern in the output text under construction.
26
28       XmParseMapping(3), XmParseTableFree(3), and XmString(3).
