2992.0. "Where are PASCAL definition for XtActionsRec?" by TAV02::GAN () Tue Jun 26 1990 07:28

I have a question on DECW programming. One of our
customer is trying to create a popup menue. He read
the "DECW guide to application" pp 6-27 example.
It uses there the data structures "XtActionsRec"
and "XtActionsProc". The problem is that he uses 
PASCAL. He can not find any definition file for these
data structures. Can someone there point me to
the correct PASCAL definition file supplied in DECWINDOWS?

		Thanks in advance

	Sorry I did not see this sooner. The Pascal inherit source has the action_list parameter to Xt$Add_actions defined as type dwt$action_list. Dwt$action_list is of type $DEFPTR which is a pointer to $DEFTYP which is of type INTEGER. All are [UNSAFE]. See SYS$LIBRARY:DECW$DWTDEF.PAS. Declare the action_rec as a RECORD with 2 integer fields. The first will be a pointer to the routine name string (null terminated) and the second will be a pointer to the action routine. The action_list to Xt$Add_Actions will be a pointer to an array of these action_recs. Appendix C of the Guide to Application Programming in the Decwindows documentation has the C format of an actions_rec. In Pascal and FORTRAN, you have to roll your own. Bill
