XmStringCompare(3X)              UNIX System V              XmStringCompare(3X)


NAME
      XmStringCompare - a compound string function that compares two strings.


SYNOPSIS
      #include <Xm/Xm.h>

      Boolean XmStringCompare (s1, s2)
           XmString  s1;
           XmString  s2;


DESCRIPTION
      XmStringCompare returns a Boolean value indicating the results of a
      semantically equivalent comparison of two compound strings.

      Semantically equivalent means that the strings have the same text
      components, directions, and separators.  If character sets are specified,
      they must be equal as well.  In general, if two compound strings are
      created with the same (char *) string using XmStringCreateSimple in the
      same language environment, the compound strings compare as equal.  If two
      compound strings are created with the same (char *) string and the same
      character set other than XmSTRING_DEFAULT_CHARSET using XmStringCreate,
      the strings compare as equal.  The result of comparing a compound string
      created with XmStringCreate against a compound string created with
      XmStringCreateSimple is undefined.


     s1     Specifies a compound string to be compared with s2

     s2     Specifies a compound string to be compared with s1


RETURN VALUE
      Returns True if two compound strings are equivalent.
