NAME¶

XtAppGetErrorDatabase, XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText - obtain error database

SYNTAX¶

#include <X11/Intrinsic.h>

XrmDatabase *XtAppGetErrorDatabase(XtAppContext app_context);

void XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText(XtAppContext app_context, const char *name, const char *type, const char *class, const char *defaultMsg, char *buffer_return, int nbytes, XrmDatabase database);

ARGUMENTS¶

app_context

Specifies the application context.

buffer_return

Specifies the buffer into which the error message is to be returned.

class

Specifies the resource class of the error message.

database

Specifies the name of the alternative database that is to be used or NULL if the application's database is to be used.

defaultMsg

Specifies the default message to use.

name

type

Specifies the name and type that are concatenated to form the resource name of the error message.

nbytes

Specifies the size of the buffer in bytes.

DESCRIPTION¶

The XtAppGetErrorDatabase function returns the address of the error database. The Intrinsics do a lazy binding of the error database and do not merge in the database file until the first call to XtAppGetErrorDatbaseText.

The XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText returns the appropriate message from the error database or returns the specified default message if one is not found in the error database.
