XStringListToTextProperty(3) XLIB FUNCTIONS XStringListToTextProperty(3)
NAME
XStringListToTextProperty, XTextPropertyToStringList, XFreeStringList, XTextProperty -
convert string lists and text property structure
SYNTAX
Status XStringListToTextProperty(char **list, int count, XTextProperty *text_prop_return);
Status XTextPropertyToStringList(XTextProperty *text_prop, char ***list_return, int
*count_return);
void XFreeStringList(char **list);
ARGUMENTS
count Specifies the number of strings.
count_return
Returns the number of strings.
list Specifies the list of strings to be freed.
list Specifies a list of null-terminated character strings.
list_return
Returns a list of null-terminated character strings.
text_prop Specifies the XTextProperty structure to be used.
text_prop_return
Returns the XTextProperty structure.
DESCRIPTION
The XStringListToTextProperty function sets the specified XTextProperty to be of type
STRING (format 8) with a value representing the concatenation of the specified list of
null-separated character strings. An extra null byte (which is not included in the nitems
member) is stored at the end of the value field of text_prop_return. The strings are
assumed (without verification) to be in the STRING encoding. If insufficient memory is
available for the new value string, XStringListToTextProperty does not set any fields in
the XTextProperty structure and returns a zero status. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero
status. To free the storage for the value field, use XFree.
The XTextPropertyToStringList function returns a list of strings representing the null-
separated elements of the specified XTextProperty structure. The data in text_prop must
be of type STRING and format 8. Multiple elements of the property (for example, the
strings in a disjoint text selection) are separated by NULL (encoding 0). The contents of
the property are not null-terminated. If insufficient memory is available for the list
and its elements, XTextPropertyToStringList sets no return values and returns a zero sta-
tus. Otherwise, it returns a nonzero status. To free the storage for the list and its
contents, use XFreeStringList.
The XFreeStringList function releases memory allocated by XmbTextPropertyToTextList,
Xutf8TextPropertyToTextList and XTextPropertyToStringList and the missing charset list
allocated by XCreateFontSet.
STRUCTURES
The XTextProperty structure contains:
typedef struct {
unsigned char *value;/* property data */
Atom encoding; /* type of property */
int format; /* 8, 16, or 32 */
unsigned long nitems;/* number of items in value */
} XTextProperty;
