DESCRIPTION

set_item_init() assigns the application-defined function to be called when the menu is posted and just after the current item changes.  item_init() returns a pointer to the item initialization routine, if any, called when the menu is posted and just after the current item changes. 

set_item_term() assigns an application-defined function to be called when the menu is unposted and just before the current item changes.  item_term() returns a pointer to the termination function, if any, called when the menu is unposted and just before the current item changes. 

set_menu_init() assigns an application-defined function to be called when the menu is posted and just after the top row changes on a posted menu.  menu_init() returns a pointer to the menu initialization routine, if any, called when the menu is posted and just after the top row changes on a posted menu. 

set_menu_term() assigns an application-defined function to be called when the menu is unposted and just before the top row changes on a posted menu.  menu_term() returns a pointer to the menu termination routine, if any, called when the menu is unposted and just before the top row changes on a posted menu. 

RETURN VALUES

Routines that return pointers always return NULL on error.  Routines that return an integer return one of the following:

E_OKThe routine returned successfully.
E_SYSTEM_ERRORSystem error.
