XrmPutResource(3X11)
X11R6
NAME
  XrmPutResource, XrmQPutResource, XrmPutStringResource,
  XrmQPutStringResource, XrmPutLineResource - store database resources

SYNOPSIS
  void XrmPutResource(database, specifier, type, value)
	  XrmDatabase *database;
	  char *specifier;
	  char *type;
	  XrmValue *value;

  void XrmQPutResource(database, bindings, quarks, type, value)
	  XrmDatabase *database;
	  XrmBindingList bindings;
	  XrmQuarkList quarks;
	  XrmRepresentation type;
	  XrmValue *value;

  void XrmPutStringResource(database, specifier, value)
	  XrmDatabase *database;
	  char *specifier;
	  char *value;

  void XrmQPutStringResource(database, bindings, quarks, value)
	  XrmDatabase *database;
	  XrmBindingList bindings;
	  XrmQuarkList quarks;
	  char *value;

  void XrmPutLineResource(database, line)
	  XrmDatabase *database;
	  char *line;

ARGUMENTS
  bindings
      Specifies a list of bindings.

  database
      Specifies the resource database.

  line
      Specifies the resource name and value pair as a single string.

  quarks
      Specifies the complete or partial name or the class list of the
      resource.

  specifier
      Specifies a complete or partial specification of the resource.

  type
      Specifies the type of the resource.

  value
      Specifies the value of the resource, which is specified as a string.

DESCRIPTION
  If database contains NULL, XrmPutResource creates a new database and
  returns a pointer to it.  XrmPutResource is a convenience function that
  calls XrmStringToBindingQuarkList followed by:

       XrmQPutResource(database, bindings, quarks, XrmStringToQuark(type), value)

  If the specifier and type are not in the Host Portable Character Encoding,
  the result is implementation dependent. The value is stored in the database
  without modification.

  If database contains NULL, XrmQPutResource creates a new database and
  returns a pointer to it. If a resource entry with the identical bindings
  and quarks already exists in the database, the previous type and value are
  replaced by the new specified type and value. The value is stored in the
  database without modification.

  If database contains NULL, XrmPutStringResource creates a new database and
  returns a pointer to it.  XrmPutStringResource adds a resource with the
  specified value to the specified database.  XrmPutStringResource is a
  convenience function that first calls XrmStringToBindingQuarkList on the
  specifier and then calls XrmQPutResource, using a "String" representation
  type.	 If the specifier is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding, the
  result is implementation dependent. The value is stored in the database
  without modification.

  If database contains NULL, XrmQPutStringResource creates a new database and
  returns a pointer to it.  XrmQPutStringResource is a convenience routine
  that constructs an XrmValue for the value string (by calling strlen to
  compute the size) and then calls XrmQPutResource, using a "String"
  representation type. The value is stored in the database without
  modification.

  If database contains NULL, XrmPutLineResource creates a new database and
  returns a pointer to it.  XrmPutLineResource adds a single resource entry
  to the specified database. The line should be in valid ResourceLine format
  (see section 15.1) terminated by a newline or null character; the database
  that results from using a string with incorrect syntax is implementation
  dependent. The string is parsed in the locale of the database. If the
  ResourceName is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding, the result is
  implementation dependent. Note that comment lines are not stored.
