Tk_GetJoinStyle(3) Tk Library Procedures Tk_GetJoinStyle(3)______________________________________________________________________________NAME
Tk_GetJoinStyle, Tk_NameOfJoinStyle - translate between strings and
join styles
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
int
Tk_GetJoinStyle(interp, string, joinPtr)
const char *
Tk_NameOfJoinStyle(join)ARGUMENTS
Tcl_Interp *interp (in) Interpreter to use for error report‐
ing.
const char *string (in) String containing name of join style
- one of “bevel”, “miter”, or “round”
- or a unique abbreviation of one.
int *joinPtr (out) Pointer to location in which to store
X join style corresponding to string.
int join (in) Join style: one of JoinBevel, Join‐
Miter, JoinRound.
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
Tk_GetJoinStyle places in *joinPtr the X join style corresponding to
string, which will be one of JoinBevel, JoinMiter, or JoinRound. Join
styles are typically used in X graphics contexts to indicate how adja‐
cent line segments should be joined together. See the X documentation
for information on what each style implies.
Under normal circumstances the return value is TCL_OK and interp is
unused. If string does not contain a valid join style or an abbrevia‐
tion of one of these names, then an error message is stored in inter‐
preter interp's result, TCL_ERROR is returned, and *joinPtr is unmodi‐
fied.
Tk_NameOfJoinStyle is the logical inverse of Tk_GetJoinStyle. Given a
join style such as JoinBevel it returns a statically-allocated string
corresponding to join. If join is not a legal join style, then
“unknown join style” is returned.
