OSF/Motif
NAME
  XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar - A RowColumn widget convenience creation function

SYNOPSIS
  #include <Xm/RowColumn.h>

  Widget XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar (parent, name, arg...)
	  Widget parent;
	  String name;

DESCRIPTION
  XmVaCreateSimpleMenuBar creates an instance of a RowColumn widget of type
  XmMENU_BAR and returns the associated widget ID. This routine uses the ANSI
  C variable-length argument list (varargs) calling convention.

  This routine creates a MenuBar and its CascadeButtonGadget children.	The
  name of each button is button_n, where n is an integer from 0 to one minus
  the number of buttons in the menu. Buttons are named and created in the
  order in which they are specified in the variable portion of the argument
  list.

  parent
      Specifies the parent widget ID

  name
      Specifies the name of the created widget

  The variable portion of the argument list consists of groups of arguments.
  The first argument in each group is a constant or a string and determines
  which arguments follow in that group. The last argument in the list must be
  NULL. Following are the possible first arguments in each group of varargs:

  XmVaCASCADEBUTTON
      This is followed by two additional arguments.  The set specifies one
      button in the MenuBar and some of its resource values.  Following are
      the additional two arguments, in this order:

      label
	  The label string, of type XmString.

      mnemonic
	  The mnemonic, of type KeySym.

  resource_name
      This is followed by one additional argument, the value of the resource,
      of type XtArgVal.	 The pair specifies a resource and its value for the
      RowColumn widget.

  XtVaTypedArg
      This is followed by four additional arguments.  The set specifies a
      resource and its value for the RowColumn widget.	A resource type
      conversion is performed if necessary.  Following are the additional
      four arguments, in this order:

      name
	  The resource name, of type String.

      type
	  The type of the resource value supplied, of type String.

      value
	  The resource value (or a pointer to the resource value, depending
	  on the type and size of the value), of type XtArgVal.

      size
	  The size of the resource value in bytes, of type int.

  XtVaNestedList
      This is followed by one additional argument of type XtVarArgsList.
      This argument is a nested list of varargs returned by
      XtVaCreateArgsList.

  For more information on variable-length argument lists, see the X Toolkit
  Intrinsics documentation.

  A number of resources exist specifically for use with this and other simple
  menu creation routines. For a complete definition of RowColumn and its
  associated resources, see XmRowColumn(3X).

RETURN VALUE
  Returns the RowColumn widget ID.
