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_re-
	    turn, 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 verifi-
     cation) 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 represent-
     ing  the  null-separated elements of the specified XTextProperty structure.
     The data in text_prop must be of type STRING and format 8.   Multiple  ele-
     ments  of	the property (for example, the strings in a disjoint text selec-
     tion) 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  status.  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	XmbTextProperty-
     ToTextList,  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;
