NAME
       XtAppSetTypeConverter, XtSetTypeConverter - register
       resource converter

SYNTAX
       void XtAppSetTypeConverter(app_context, from_type,
       to_type, converter, convert_args, num_args, cache_type,
       destructor)
           XtAppContext app_context;
           String from_type;
           String to_type;
           XtConverter converter;
           XtConvertArgList convert_args;
           Cardinal num_args;
           XtCacheType cache_type;
           XtDestructor destructor;

       void XtSetTypeConverter(from_type, to_type, converter,
       convert_args, num_args, cache_type, destructor)
           String from_type;
           String to_type;
           XtConverter converter;
           XtConvertArgList convert_args;
           Cardinal num_args;
           XtCacheType cache_type;
           XtDestructor destructor;

ARGUMENTS
       app_context
                 Specifies the application context.

       converter Specifies the type converter procedure.

       convert_args
                 Specifies how to compute the additional argu-
                 ments to the converter or NULL.

       from_type Specifies the source type.

       num_args  Specifies the number of additional arguments to
                 the converter or zero.

       to_type   Specifies the destination type.

       cache_type
                 Specifies whether or not resources produced by
                 this converter are sharable or display-specific
                 and when they should be freed.

       destructor
                 Specifies a destroy procedure for resources pro-
                 duced by this conversion, or NULL if no addional
                 action is required to deallocate resources pro-
                 duced by the converter.

DESCRIPTION
       XtSetTypeConverter registers the specified type converter
       and destructor in all application contexts created by the
       calling process, including any future application contexts
       that may be created.  XtAppSetTypeConverter registers the
       specified type converter in the single application context
       specified. If the same from_type and to_type are specified
       in multiple calls to either function, the most recent
       overrides the previous ones.
