XmParseTable - Man Page

#include <Xm/Xm​.h>

XmParseTable is the data type for an array of parse mappings (objects of type XmParseMapping)​.

A parse table is used by some routines that parse and unparse compound strings​. The table is an ordered list of parse mappings​. A parsing routine that uses a parse table scans the input text and searches the parse mappings, in order, for one containing a pattern that matches the input text​. The matching parse mapping supplies a compound string to be included in the compound string under construction​.

An unparsing routine that uses a parse table searches the parse mappings, in order, for one containing a compound string that matches the input compound string​. The unparsing routine can then include the parse mapping​'s text pattern in the output text under construction​.
