ARGUMENTS
- args
- Specifies the argument list to override resources obtained
from the resource database.
- base
- Specifies the base address of the subpart data structure
where the resources should be written.
- num_args
- Specifies the number of arguments in the argument

DESCRIPTION
The
XtGetApplicationResources function first uses the passed widget,
which is usually an application shell, to construct a resource name and class
list, Then, it retrieves the resources from the argument list, the resource
database, or the resource list default values. After adding base to each
address,
XtGetApplicationResources copies the resources into the
address given in the resource list. If args is NULL, num_args must be zero.
However, if num_args is zero, the argument list is not referenced. The
portable way to specify application resources is to declare them as members of
a structure and pass the address of the structure as the base argument.
