XCreateOC(3)                    XLIB FUNCTIONS                    XCreateOC(3)

NAME
       XCreateOC,  XDestroyOC,  XSetOCValues,  XGetOCValues,  XOMOfOC - create
       output contexts

SYNTAX
       XOC XCreateOC(XOM om, ...);

       void XDestroyOC(XOC oc);

       char * XSetOCValues(XOC oc, ...);

       char * XGetOCValues(XOC oc, ...);

       XOM XOMOfOC(XOC oc);

ARGUMENTS
       oc        Specifies the output context.

       om        Specifies the output method.

       ...       Specifies the variable length argument list to set or get XOC
                 values.

DESCRIPTION
       The  XCreateOC  function creates an output context within the specified
       output method.

       The base font names argument is mandatory at  creation  time,  and  the
       output  context  will  not be created unless it is provided.  All other
       output context values can be set later.

       XCreateOC returns NULL if no output context could be created.  NULL can
       be returned for any of the following reasons:

       •    A required argument was not set.

       •    A read-only argument was set.

       •    An argument name is not recognized.

       •    The  output method encountered an output method implementation-de-
            pendent error.

       The XDestroyOC function destroys the specified output context.

       The XSetOCValues function returns NULL if no error occurred; otherwise,
       it  returns  the  name of the first argument that could not be set.  An
       argument might not be set for any of the following reasons:

       •    The argument is read-only.

       •    The argument name is not recognized.

       •    An implementation-dependent error occurs.

       Each value to be set must be an appropriate datum,  matching  the  data
       type imposed by the semantics of the argument.

       The XGetOCValues function returns NULL if no error occurred; otherwise,
       it returns the name of the first argument that could not  be  obtained.
       An argument might not be obtained for any of the following reasons:

       •    The argument name is not recognized.

       •    An implementation-dependent error occurs.

       Each argument value following a name must point to a location where the
       value is to be stored.

       The XOMOfOC function returns the  output  method  associated  with  the
       specified output context.
