XtRealizeWidget(3)		  XT FUNCTIONS		      XtRealizeWidget(3)

NAME
     XtRealizeWidget,  XtIsRealized,  XtUnrealizeWidget  - realize and unrealize
     widgets

SYNTAX
     #include <X11/Intrinsic.h>

     void XtRealizeWidget(Widget w);

     Boolean XtIsRealized(Widget w);

     void XtUnrealizeWidget(Widget w);

ARGUMENTS
     w	       Specifies the widget.

DESCRIPTION
     If the widget is already realized, XtRealizeWidget simply returns.   Other-
     wise, it performs the following:

     *	  Binds all action names in the widget's translation table to procedures
	  (see Section 10.1.2).

     *	  Makes  a  post-order traversal of the widget tree rooted at the speci-
	  fied widget and calls the change_managed procedure of  each  composite
	  widget that has one or more managed children.

     *	  Constructs  an  XSetWindowAttributes structure filled in with informa-
	  tion derived from the Core widget fields and calls the realize  proce-
	  dure	for  the  widget,  which adds any widget-specific attributes and
	  creates the X window.

     *	  If the widget is not a subclass  of  compositeWidgetClass,  XtRealize-
	  Widget returns; otherwise, it continues and performs the following:

	  -    Descends recursively to each of the widget's managed children and
	       calls the realize procedures.  Primitive widgets that instantiate
	       children are responsible for realizing those children themselves.

	  -    Maps   all   of	 the   managed	 children   windows   that  have
	       mapped_when_managed  True.   (If  a   widget   is   managed   but
	       mapped_when_managed  is	False,	the  widget  is allocated visual
	       space but is not displayed.  Some people seem to like this to in-
	       dicate certain states.)

     If the widget is a top-level shell widget (that is, it has no parent),  and
     mapped_when_managed is True, XtRealizeWidget maps the widget window.

     The  XtIsRealized	function  returns  True if the widget has been realized,
     that is, if the widget has a nonzero X window ID.

     Some widget procedures (for example, set_values) might wish to operate dif-
     ferently after the widget has been realized.

     The XtUnrealizeWidget function destroys the windows of an	existing  widget
     and  all  of  its children (recursively down the widget tree).  To recreate
     the windows at a later time, call XtRealizeWidget again.  If the widget was
     managed, it will be unmanaged automatically before its window is freed.
