menu_items(3X)			  Library calls 		  menu_items(3X)

NAME
     set_menu_items, menu_items, item_count - make and break connections between
     items and menus

SYNOPSIS
     #include <menu.h>

     int set_menu_items(MENU *menu, ITEM **items);
     ITEM **menu_items(const MENU *menu);
     int item_count(const MENU *menu);

DESCRIPTION
     The  function  set_menu_items  changes  the item pointer array of the given
     menu.  The array must be terminated by a NULL.

     The function menu_items returns the item array of the given menu.

     The function item_count returns the count of items in menu.

RETURN VALUE
     The function menu_items returns a pointer (which may be NULL).  It does not
     set errno.

     The function item_count returns ERR (the general curses error return value)
     if its menu parameter is NULL .

     The function set_menu_items returns one of the following codes on error:

     E_OK
	  The routine succeeded.

     E_BAD_ARGUMENT
	  Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.

     E_NOT_CONNECTED
	  No items are connected to the menu.

     E_POSTED
	  The menu is already posted.

     E_SYSTEM_ERROR
	  System error occurred (see errno(3)).

PORTABILITY
     These routines emulate the System V menu library.	They were not  supported
     on Version 7 or BSD versions.

     The SVr4 menu library documentation specifies the item_count error value as
     -1 (which is the value of ERR).
