The
XmbTextListToTextProperty, XwcTextListToTextProperty and Xutf8TextListToTextProperty
functions set the specified XTextProperty value to a set of null-separated
elements representing the concatenation of the specified list of null-terminated
text strings. The input text strings must be given in the current locale
encoding (for XmbTextListToTextProperty and XwcTextListToTextProperty),
or in UTF-8 encoding (for Xutf8TextListToTextProperty).
The functions
set the encoding field of text_prop_return to an Atom for the specified
display naming the encoding determined by the specified style and convert
the specified text list to this encoding for storage in the text_prop_return
value field. If the style XStringStyle or XCompoundTextStyle is specified,
this encoding is ``STRING'' or ``COMPOUND_TEXT'', respectively. If the style XUTF8StringStyle
is specified, this encoding is ``UTF8_STRING''. (This is an XFree86 extension
introduced in XFree86 4.0.2. Its presence is indicated by the macro X_HAVE_UTF8_STRING.)
If the style XTextStyle is specified, this encoding is the encoding
of the current locale. If the style XStdICCTextStyle is specified, this
encoding is ``STRING'' if the text is fully convertible to STRING, else ``COMPOUND_TEXT''.
A final terminating null byte is stored at the end of the value field
of text_prop_return but is not included in the nitems member.
If insufficient
memory is available for the new value string, the functions return XNoMemory.
If the current locale is not supported, the functions return XLocaleNotSupported.
In both of these error cases, the functions do not set text_prop_return.
To determine if the functions are guaranteed not to return XLocaleNotSupported,
use XSupportsLocale.
If the supplied text is not fully convertible to
the specified encoding, the functions return the number of unconvertible
characters. Each unconvertible character is converted to an implementation-defined
and encoding-specific default string. Otherwise, the functions return Success.
Note that full convertibility to all styles except XStringStyle is
guaranteed.
To free the storage for the value field, use XFree.
The XmbTextPropertyToTextList,
XwcTextPropertyToTextList and Xutf8TextPropertyToTextList functions
return a list of text strings representing the null-separated elements of
the specified XTextProperty structure. The returned strings are encoded
using the current locale encoding (for XmbTextPropertyToTextList and
XwcTextPropertyToTextList) or in UTF-8 (for Xutf8TextPropertyToTextList).
The data in text_prop must be format 8.
Multiple elements of the property
(for example, the strings in a disjoint text selection) are separated by
a null byte. The contents of the property are not required to be null-terminated;
any terminating null should not be included in text_prop.nitems.
If insufficient
memory is available for the list and its elements, XmbTextPropertyToTextList,
XwcTextPropertyToTextList and Xutf8TextPropertyToTextList return
XNoMemory. If the current locale is not supported, the functions return
XLocaleNotSupported. Otherwise, if the encoding field of text_prop is
not convertible to the encoding of the current locale, the functions return
XConverterNotFound. For supported locales, existence of a converter from
COMPOUND_TEXT, STRING, UTF8_STRING or the encoding of the current locale
is guaranteed if XSupportsLocale returns True for the current locale
(but the actual text may contain unconvertible characters). Conversion of
other encodings is implementation-dependent. In all of these error cases,
the functions do not set any return values.
Otherwise, XmbTextPropertyToTextList,
XwcTextPropertyToTextList and Xutf8TextPropertyToTextList return
the list of null-terminated text strings to list_return and the number of
text strings to count_return.
If the value field of text_prop is not fully
convertible to the encoding of the current locale, the functions return
the number of unconvertible characters. Each unconvertible character is
converted to a string in the current locale that is specific to the current
locale. To obtain the value of this string, use XDefaultString. Otherwise,
XmbTextPropertyToTextList, XwcTextPropertyToTextList and Xutf8TextPropertyToTextList
return Success.
To free the storage for the list and its contents returned
by XmbTextPropertyToTextList or Xutf8TextPropertyToTextList, use XFreeStringList.
To free the storage for the list and its contents returned by XwcTextPropertyToTextList,
use XwcFreeStringList.
The XwcFreeStringList function frees memory
allocated by XwcTextPropertyToTextList.
The XDefaultString function
returns the default string used by Xlib for text conversion (for example,
in XmbTextPropertyToTextList). The default string is the string in the
current locale that is output when an unconvertible character is found
during text conversion. If the string returned by XDefaultString is the
empty string (""), no character is output in the converted text. XDefaultString
does not return NULL.
The string returned by XDefaultString is independent
of the default string for text drawing; see XCreateFontSet to obtain
the default string for an XFontSet.
The behavior when an invalid codepoint
is supplied to any Xlib function is undefined.
The returned string is null-terminated.
It is owned by Xlib and should not be modified or freed by the client. It
may be freed after the current locale is changed. Until freed, it will not
be modified by Xlib.
The functions Xutf8TextListToTextProperty and Xutf8TextPropertyToTextList
are an XFree86 extension introduced in XFree86 4.0.2. Their presence is
indicated by the macro X_HAVE_UTF8_STRING.
The XTextProperty
