XmStringNCopy --
a compound string function that creates a copy of a compound string
Synopsis
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
XmString XmStringNCopy (s1, num_bytes)
XmString s1;
int num_bytes;
Description
XmStringNCopy creates a copy of s1 that contains a specified
number of bytes, including tags, directional indicators,
and separators. It then returns the
resulting compound string. The original strings are preserved. The space
for the
resulting compound string is allocated within the function.
The application is responsible for managing the allocated space. The
memory can be recovered by calling XmStringFree.
s1
Specifies the compound string.
num_bytes
Specifies the number of bytes of s1 to copy.
If this value is less than the
length of s1, as many bytes as possible, but possibly fewer than
this value, will be appended to s1 such that the resulting string
is still a valid compound string.
