XcupStoreColors(3)		  X FUNCTIONS		    XcupStoreColors(3)



NAME
       XcupStoreColors	-  initialize  shareable  colormap entries at specific
       locations

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lXext [ library ... ]
       #include <X11/extensions/Xcup.h>

       Status XcupStoreColors(Display *display, Colormap colormap,
	      XColor *colors_in_out, int ncolors);

ARGUMENTS
       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server

       colormap  Specifies the colormap

       colors_in_out

		 Specifies and returns the values actually used  in  the  col-
		 ormap

       ncolors	 Specifies the number of items in colors_in_out

DESCRIPTION
       The  XcupStoreColors function changes the colormap entries of the pixel
       values in the pixel members of  the  XColor  structures.  The  colormap
       entries	are  allocated as if an AllocColor has been used instead, i.e.
       the colors are read-only (shareable).  XcupStoreColors returns the num-
       ber of colors that were successfully allocated in the colormap.

       A  Value  error	is  generated if a pixel is not a valid index into the
       colormap. A BadMatch error is generated if the colormap does not belong
       to a GrayScale, PseudoColor, or DirectColor visual.

       Applications which allocate many colors in a screen's default colormap,
       e.g.  a color-cube or a gray-ramp, should allocate them with XCupStore-
       Colors.	By using XCupStoreColors the colors will be allocated sharable
       (read-only) and any other application which allocates  the  same  color
       will share that color cell.
