Tk_GetCapStyle (3)
translate between strings and cap styles
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
int
Tk_GetCapStyle(interp, string, capPtr)
char *
Tk_NameOfCapStyle(cap)
ARGUMENTS
"Tcl_Interp" *capPtr
Tcl_Interp *interp in
Interpreter to use for error reporting.
char *string in
String containing name of cap style: one of ```butt'', ``projecting'',
or ``round''.
int *capPtr out
Pointer to location in which to store X cap style corresponding to
string.
int cap in
Cap style: one of CapButt, CapProjecting, or CapRound.
DESCRIPTION
Tk_GetCapStyle places in *capPtr the X cap style
corresponding to string.
This will be one of the values
CapButt, CapProjecting, or CapRound.
Cap styles are typically used in X graphics contexts to indicate
how the end-points of lines should be capped.
See the X documentation for information on what each style
implies.
Under normal circumstances the return value is TCL_OK and
interp is unused.
If string doesn't contain a valid cap style
or an abbreviation of one of these names, then an error message is
stored in interp->result, TCL_ERROR is returned, and
*capPtr is unmodified.
Tk_NameOfCapStyle is the logical inverse of Tk_GetCapStyle.
Given a cap style such as CapButt it returns a
statically-allocated string corresponding to cap.
If cap isn't a legal cap style, then
``unknown cap style'' is returned.

'\" The definitions below are for supplemental macros used in Tcl/Tk
'\" manual entries.
'\"
'\" .AP type name in/out ?indent?
'\" Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure.
'\" type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out",
'\" or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg,
'\" and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be
'\" needed; use .AS below instead)
'\"
'\" .AS ?type? ?name?
'\" Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops. Type and
'\" name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed
'\" to .AP later. If args are omitted, default tab stops are used.
'\"
'\" .BS
'\" Start box enclosure. From here until next .BE, everything will be
'\" enclosed in one large box.
'\"
'\" .BE
'\" End of box enclosure.
'\"
'\" .CS
'\" Begin code excerpt.
'\"
'\" .CE
'\" End code excerpt.
'\"
'\" .VS ?version? ?br?
'\" Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts
'\" of man pages. The first argument is ignored and used for recording
'\" the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be
'\" found and removed when they reach a certain age. If another argument
'\" is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar.
'\"
'\" .VE
'\" End of vertical sidebar.
'\"
'\" .DS
'\" Begin an indented unfilled display.
'\"
'\" .DE
'\" End of indented unfilled display.
'\"
'\" .SO
'\" Start of list of standard options for a Tk widget. The
'\" options follow on successive lines, in four columns separated
'\" by tabs.
'\"
'\" .SE
'\" End of list of standard options for a Tk widget.
'\"
'\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass
'\" Start of description of a specific option. cmdName gives the
'\" option's name as specified in the class command, dbName gives
'\" the option's name in the option database, and dbClass gives
'\" the option's class in the option database.
'\"
'\" .UL arg1 arg2
'\" Print arg1 underlined, then print arg2 normally.
