159 function returns NULL if no error occurred;
161 it returns the name of the first argument that could not be set.
162 An argument might not be set for any of the following reasons:
164 The argument is read-only (for example,
165 .ZN XNFilterEvents ).
167 The argument name is not recognized.
169 An implementation-dependent error occurs.
171 Each value to be set must be an appropriate datum,
172 matching the data type imposed by the semantics of the argument.
187 function returns NULL if no error occurred; otherwise,
188 it returns the name of the first argument that could not be obtained.
189 An argument could not be obtained for any of the following reasons:
191 The argument name is not recognized.
193 The input method encountered an implementation-dependent error.
195 Each IC attribute value argument (following a name) must point to
196 a location where the IC value is to be stored.
197 That is, if the IC value is of type T,
198 the argument must be of type T*.
199 If T itself is a pointer type,
202 allocates memory to store the actual data,
203 and the client is responsible for freeing this data by calling
205 with the returned pointer.
206 The exception to this rule is for an IC value of type
208 (for preedit and status attributes).
209 In this case, the argument must also be of type
211 Then, the rule of changing type T to T* and freeing the allocated data
212 applies to each element of the nested list.
216 A value for an Atom argument does not name a defined Atom.
219 A value for a Colormap argument does not name a defined Colormap.
222 A value for a Cursor argument does not name a defined Cursor.
225 A value for a Pixmap argument does not name a defined Pixmap.
228 A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
