XtParseTranslationTable(1)

NAME

       XtParseTranslationTable, XtAugmentTranslations, XtOverrideTranslations,
       XtUninstallTranslations - manage translation tables

SYNTAX

       XtTranslations XtParseTranslationTable(String table);

       void XtAugmentTranslations(Widget w, XtTranslations translations);

       void XtOverrideTranslations(Widget w, XtTranslations translations);

       void XtUninstallTranslations(Widget w);

ARGUMENTS

       table     Specifies the translation table to compile.

       translations
                 Specifies the compiled translation table to merge in (must
                 not be NULL).

       w         Specifies the widget into which the new translations are to
                 be merged or removed.

DESCRIPTION

       The XtParseTranslationTable function compiles the translation table
       into the opaque internal representation of type XtTranslations.  Note
       that if an empty translation table is required for any purpose, one can
       be obtained by calling XtParseTranslationTable and passing an empty
       string.

       The XtAugmentTranslations function nondestructively merges the new
       translations into the existing widget translations.  If the new trans-
       lations contain an event or event sequence that already exists in the
       widget's translations, the new translation is ignored.

       The XtOverrideTranslations function destructively merges the new trans-
       lations into the existing widget translations.  If the new translations
       contain an event or event sequence that already exists in the widget's
       translations, the new translation is merged in and override the wid-
       get's translation.

       To replace a widget's translations completely, use XtSetValues on the
       XtNtranslations resource and specify a compiled translation table as
       the value.

       The XtUninstallTranslations function causes the entire translation ta-
       ble for widget to be removed.
