XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox(Xm)
XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox --
a RowColumn widget convenience creation function
Syntax
#include <Xm/RowColumn.h>
Widget XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox (parent, name, callback, arg...)
Widget parent;
String name;
XtCallbackProc callback;
Description
XmVaCreateSimpleCheckBox creates an instance of a RowColumn widget
of type XmWORK_AREA and returns the associated widget ID.
This routine uses the ANSI C variable-length argument list
(varargs) calling convention.
This routine creates a CheckBox and its ToggleButtonGadget children.
A CheckBox is similar to a RadioBox, except that more than one button
can be selected at a time.
The name of each button is button_n,
where n is an integer
from 0 to one minus the number of buttons in the menu.
Buttons are named and created in the order in which they are specified
in the variable portion of the argument list.
parent-
Specifies the parent widget ID.
name-
Specifies the name of the created widget.
callback-
Specifies a callback procedure to be called when a button's value
changes.
This callback function is added to each button after creation as the
button's XmNvalueChangedCallback.
The callback function is called when a button's value changes, and 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:
XmVaCHECKBUTTON-
This is followed by four additional arguments. The set specifies one
button in the CheckBox and some of its resource values. Following are
the additional four arguments, in this order:
label-
The label string, of type XmString.
mnemonic-
The mnemonic, of type KeySym. This is ignored in this release.
accelerator-
The accelerator, of type String. This is ignored in this release.
accelerator_text-
The accelerator text, of type XmString. This is ignored in this
release.
resource_name-
This is followed by one additional argument, the value of the resource,
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, depending 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
XtVaCreateArgsList.
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.

Return value
Returns the RowColumn widget ID.
