.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The
\fBMrmFetchWidget\fP
function
.iX "MrmFetchWidget" "description"
fetches and creates an
indexed application widget and its children\&.
The indexed application widget is any widget that is named in UIL\&.
In
fetch operations, the fetched widget\&'s subtree is also
fetched and created\&.
This widget must not appear as the child of a widget within its own
subtree\&. \fBMrmFetchWidget\fP does not execute \fBXtManageChild\fP
for the newly created widget\&.
.PP
All widgets fetched by a call to \fBMrmFetchWidget\fP are not managed
at the time of their creation callbacks\&.
.IP "\fIhierarchy_id\fP" 10
Specifies the ID of the \fBUID\fP hierarchy that contains the
interface definition\&.
The value of \fIhierarchy_id\fP was returned in a previous call to
\fBMrmOpenHierarchyPerDisplay\fP\&.
.IP "\fIindex\fP" 10
Specifies the UIL name of the widget to fetch\&.
.IP "\fIparent_widget\fP" 10
Specifies the parent widget ID\&.
.IP "\fIwidget\fP" 10
Returns the widget ID of the created widget\&.
.IP "\fIclass\fP" 10
This argument must be set to an actual pointer; it
cannot be a NULL pointer\&. \fBMrmFetchWidget\fP sets this argument to
an implementation dependent value\&.
.PP
An application can fetch
any named widget in the \fBUID\fP hierarchy using
\fBMrmFetchWidget\fP\&.
\fBMrmFetchWidget\fP
can be called at any time to fetch a widget that was not fetched at
application startup\&.
\fBMrmFetchWidget\fP
can be used to defer fetching pop-up
widgets until they are first
referenced (presumably in a callback), and then used to fetch them
once\&.
.PP
\fBMrmFetchWidget\fP
can also create multiple instances of a widget (and its subtree)\&.
In this case, the \fBUID\fP definition functions as a template;
a widget definition can be fetched any number of times\&.
An application can use
this template to make multiple instances of a widget, for example, in a
dialog box box or menu\&.
.PP
The index (UIL name) that identifies the widget must be
known to the application\&.
.SH "RETURN"
.iX "MrmSUCCESS"
.iX "MrmBAD_HIERARCHY"
.iX "MrmNOT_FOUND"
.iX "MrmFAILURE"
.PP
This function returns one of the following status return constants:
.IP "\fBMrmSUCCESS\fP" 10
The function executed successfully\&.
.IP "\fBMrmBAD_HIERARCHY\fP" 10
The hierarchy ID was invalid\&.
.IP "\fBMrmNOT_FOUND\fP" 10
The widget was not found in UID hierarchy\&.
.IP "\fBMrmFAILURE\fP" 10
The function failed\&.
.SH "RELATED"
.PP
\fBMrmOpenHierarchyPerDisplay\fP(3),
\fBMrmFetchWidgetOverride\fP(3)\&.
