XtVaGetValues()						       XtVaGetValues()

Name
  XtVaGetValues	 - retrieve the current values of widget resources, using
  varargs argument style.

Synopsis
  void XtVaGetValues(object, ..., NULL)
	   Widget object;

Inputs
  object    Specifies  the  object  whose  resource  values  are  to   be
	    returned; may be of class Object or any subclass thereof.

  ..., NULL A  NULL-terminated variable-length list of resource names and
	    the addresses at which the values of those resources  are  to
	    be stored.

Availability
  Release 4 and later.

Description
  XtVaGetValues()  gets the values of the resources named in the variable
  length argument list from the specified widget  or  object  and  stores
  those	 values	 at  the addresses specified in the argument list.  It is
  the caller's responsibility to ensure that sufficient storage is  allo‐
  cated.  If XtVaTypedArg is specified, the following type argument field
  specifies the representation desired by the caller  and  the	following
  size	argument  specifies  the  number  of bytes allocated to store the
  result of the conversion.  If the size is insufficient, a warning  mes‐
  sage is issued and the list entry is skipped.

  XtVaGetValues()  is  identical  to  XtGetValues()  except that the args
  array of resource names and values and the num_args  argument	 of  that
  function	 are	   replaced	 with	   a	  NULL-terminated
  variable-length argument list.

  See XtGetValues() for more information on this function.  See	 XtVaSet‐
  Values()  for	 more information on using variable-length argument lists
  to specify resources.

Example
  You can use XtVaGetValues() as follows:

     Pixel color;
     XFontStruct *font;
     String label;
     Widget w;

     XtVaGetValues(w,
		   XtNforeground, &color,
		   XtNfont, &font,
		   XtNlabel &label,
		   NULL);
