PtSuperClassSetResources()

Set resources

Synopsis:

int PtSuperClassSetResources( 
                     PtWidgetClassRef_t *wc_ref,
                     PtWidget_t *widget, 
                     int num_args, 
                     PtArg_t const *args )

Arguments:

wc_ref

The superclass whose method you want to call.

widget

A pointer to the widget for which to call the superclass's method.

num_args

The number of entries in the args array.

args

An array of PtArg_t structures (see the Photon Library Reference) that define the resources to set and their values.

Description:

This function sets the resources given by num_args and args in the manner defined by wc_ref. This is extremely helpful when overriding the query_f member of an overridden resource.

Returns:

The number of resources set.

Examples:

my_modify_area( PtWidget_t *widget, PtArg_t *argt )
{
     MyWidget_t *mw = (MyWidget_t *)widget;

     mw->area_changed = Pt_TRUE;
     // Apply the resource the same way a superclass does.
     PtSuperClassSetResources( 
         widget->class_rec->superclass->cref, 
         widget, 1, argt );

     // Set the resource so that it's treated
     // like a PtBasic class widget.
     PtSuperClassSetResources( PtBasic, widget, 1, argt );
}

Classification:
