XOpenOM(3)			 XLIB FUNCTIONS 		      XOpenOM(3)

NAME
     XOpenOM,  XCloseOM, XSetOMValues, XGetOMValues, XDisplayOfOM, XLocaleOfOM -
     open output methods

SYNTAX
     XOM  XOpenOM(Display  *display,  XrmDatabase  db,	char   *res_name,   char
	    *res_class);

     Status XCloseOM(XOM om);

     char *XSetOMValues(XOM om, ...);

     char *XGetOMValues(XOM om, ...);

     Display *XDisplayOfOM(XOM om);

     char *XLocaleOfOM(XOM om);

ARGUMENTS
     display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

     db        Specifies a pointer to the resource database.

     res_name  Specifies the full resource name of the application.

     res_class Specifies the full class name of the application.

     om        Specifies the output method.

     ...       Specifies  the  variable  length  argument list to set or get XOM
	       values.

DESCRIPTION
     The XOpenOM function opens an output method matching the current locale and
     modifiers specification.  The current locale and modifiers are bound to the
     output method when XOpenOM is called.  The locale associated with an output
     method cannot be changed.

     The specific output method to which this call will be routed is  identified
     on  the basis of the current locale and modifiers.  XOpenOM will identify a
     default output method corresponding to the current  locale.   That  default
     can  be  modified	using XSetLocaleModifiers to set the output method modi-
     fier.

     The db argument is the resource database to be used by  the  output  method
     for  looking up resources that are private to the output method.  It is not
     intended that this database be used to look up values that can be set as OC
     values in an output context.  If db is NULL, no database is passed  to  the
     output method.

     The res_name and res_class arguments specify the resource name and class of
     the  application.	 They  are intended to be used as prefixes by the output
     method when looking up resources that are common  to  all	output	contexts
     that  may	be  created for this output method.  The characters used for re-
     source names and classes must be in the X Portable Character Set.	The  re-
     sources looked up are not fully specified if res_name or res_class is NULL.

     The  res_name  and  res_class arguments are not assumed to exist beyond the
     call to XOpenOM.  The specified resource database is assumed to  exist  for
     the lifetime of the output method.

     XOpenOM returns NULL if no output method could be opened.

     The XCloseOM function closes the specified output method.

     The XSetOMValues function presents a variable argument list programming in-
     terface  for setting properties or features of the specified output method.
     This function returns NULL if it succeeds; otherwise, it returns  the  name
     of  the first argument that could not be set.  Xlib does not attempt to set
     arguments from the supplied list that follow the failed argument; all argu-
     ments in the list preceding the failed argument have been set correctly.

     No standard arguments are currently defined by Xlib.

     The XGetOMValues function presents a variable argument list programming in-
     terface for querying properties or features of the specified output method.
     This function returns NULL if it succeeds; otherwise, it returns  the  name
     of the first argument that could not be obtained.

     The XDisplayOfOM function returns the display associated with the specified
     output method.

     The  XLocaleOfOM  returns	the  locale associated with the specified output
     method.
