ArgList args;
Cardinal num_args;
void XtGetApplicationResources(w, base, resources, num_resources, args,

ARGUMENTS
args Specifies the argument list to override resources obtained
from the resource database.
base Specifies the base address of the subpart data structure
where the resources should be written.
class Specifies the class of the subpart.
name Specifies the name of the subpart.
num_args Specifies the number of arguments in the argument list.
num_resources
Specifies the number of resources in the resource list.
resources Specifies the resource list for the subpart.
w Specifies the widget that wants resources for a subpart or
that identifies the resource database to search.
DESCRIPTION
The function constructs a name/class list from the application
name/class, the name/classes of all its ancestors, and the widget
itself. Then, it appends to this list the name/class pair passed in.
The resources are fetched from the argument list, the resource data‐
base, or the default values in the resource list. Then, they are
copied into the subpart record. If args is NULL, num_args must be
zero. However, if num_args is zero, the argument list is not refer‐
enced.
The function first uses the passed widget, which is usually an applica‐
tion shell, to construct a resource name and class list, Then, it
retrieves the resources from the argument list, the resource database,
or the resource list default values. After adding base to each
address, copies the resources into the address given in the resource
list. If args is NULL, num_args must be zero. However, if num_args is
zero, the argument list is not referenced. The portable way to specify
application resources is to declare them as members of a structure and
pass the address of the structure as the base argument.
