XmString XmStringTableToXmString(
XmStringTable table,

Overview

XmStringTableToXmString takes as input table of compound strings and a specified string component (such as a tab) and returns a single compound string consisting of each of the elements of table concatenated together with a single copy of break_component inserted between each element.

table

Specifies an XmStringTable containing the compound strings to be converted.

count

Specifies the number of compound strings in table.

break_component

Specifies the XmStringComponent that will be inserted in the result to separate the individual elements of table. The most useful types will be XmSTRING_COMPONENT_SEPARATOR and XmSTRING_COMPONENT_TAB. Refer to the XmStringComponentType(3) reference page for a complete list of possible component types. Note, however, that the XmSTRING_COMPONENT_UNKNOWN component is not a possible type.
