XtCreateWindow(3Xt)                  SysV                  XtCreateWindow(3Xt)



NAME
     XtCreateWindow - window creation convenience function

SYNTAX
     void XtCreateWindow(w, window_class, visual, value_mask, attributes)
           Widget w;
           unsigned int window_class;
           Visual *visual;
           XtValueMask value_mask;
           XSetWindowAttributes *attributes;

ARGUMENTS
     attributes
               Specifies the window attributes to use in the XCreateWindow
               call.

     value_mask
               Specifies which attribute fields to use.

     visual    Specifies the visual type (usually CopyFromParent).

     w         Specifies the widget that is used to set the x,y coordinates
               and so on.

     window_class
               Specifies the Xlib window class (for example, InputOutput,
               InputOnly, or CopyFromParent).

DESCRIPTION
     The XtCreateWindow function calls the Xlib XCreateWindow function with
     values from the widget structure and the passed parameters.  Then, it
     assigns the created window to the widget's window field.

     XtCreateWindow evaluates the following fields of the Core widget
     structure:

     ⊕    depth

     ⊕    screen

     ⊕    parent -> core.window

     ⊕    x

     ⊕    y

     ⊕    width

     ⊕    height

     ⊕    border_width
