NAME
XrmPutResource, XrmQPutResource, XrmPutStringResource,
XrmQPutStringResource, XrmPutLineResource - store database
resources
SYNTAX
void XrmPutResource(XrmDatabase *database, char *specifier,
char *type, XrmValue *value);
void XrmQPutResource(XrmDatabase *database, XrmBindingList
bindings, XrmQuarkList quarks, XrmRepresentation type,
XrmValue *value);
void XrmPutStringResource(XrmDatabase *database, char
*specifier, char *value);
void XrmQPutStringResource(XrmDatabase *database, XrmBin-
dingList bindings, XrmQuarkList quarks, char *value);
void XrmPutLineResource(XrmDatabase *database, char *line);
ARGUMENTS
bindings Specifies a list of bindings.
database Specifies the resource database.
line Specifies the resource name and value pair as a
single string.
quarks Specifies the complete or partial name or the
class list of the resource.
specifier Specifies a complete or partial specification of
the resource.
type Specifies the type of the resource.
value Specifies the value of the resource, which is
specified as a string.
DESCRIPTION
If database contains NULL, XrmPutResource creates a new
database and returns a pointer to it. XrmPutResource is a
convenience function that calls XrmStringToBindingQuarkList
followed by:
XrmQPutResource(database, bindings, quarks, XrmStringToQuark(type), value)
If the specifier and type are not in the Host Portable Char-
acter Encoding, the result is implementation-dependent. The
value is stored in the database without modification.

XrmPutResource(3X11) XLIB FUNCTIONS XrmPutResource(3X11)
If database contains NULL, XrmQPutResource creates a new
database and returns a pointer to it. If a resource entry
with the identical bindings and quarks already exists in the
database, the previous type and value are replaced by the
new specified type and value. The value is stored in the
database without modification.
If database contains NULL, XrmPutStringResource creates a
new database and returns a pointer to it.
XrmPutStringResource adds a resource with the specified
value to the specified database. XrmPutStringResource is a
convenience function that first calls XrmStringToBin-
dingQuarkList on the specifier and then calls XrmQPu-
tResource, using a ``String'' representation type. If the
specifier is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding,
the result is implementation-dependent. The value is stored
in the database without modification.
If database contains NULL, XrmQPutStringResource creates a
new database and returns a pointer to it.
XrmQPutStringResource is a convenience routine that con-
structs an XrmValue for the value string (by calling strlen
to compute the size) and then calls XrmQPutResource, using a
``String'' representation type. The value is stored in the
database without modification.
If database contains NULL, XrmPutLineResource creates a new
database and returns a pointer to it. XrmPutLineResource
adds a single resource entry to the specified database. The
line should be in valid ResourceLine format (see section
15.1) terminated by a newline or null character; the data-
base that results from using a string with incorrect syntax
is implementation-dependent. The string is parsed in the
locale of the database. If the ResourceName is not in the
Host Portable Character Encoding, the result is
implementation-dependent. Note that comment lines are not
stored.
