.SH DESCRIPTION
The
-.BR XtConvert
+.B XtConvert
function looks up the type converter registered to convert from_type
to to_type, computes any additional arguments needed, and then calls
.BR XtDirectConvert .
-.BR XtConvert
+.B XtConvert
has been replaced by
.BR XtConvertAndStore .
.LP
The
-.BR XtDirectConvert
+.B XtDirectConvert
function looks in the converter cache to see if this conversion procedure
has been called with the specified arguments.
If so, it returns a descriptor for information stored in the cache;
otherwise, it calls the converter and enters the result in the cache.
.LP
Before calling the specified converter,
-.BR XtDirectConvert
+.B XtDirectConvert
sets the return value size to zero and the return value address to NULL.
To determine if the conversion was successful,
the client should check to_return.address for non-NULL.
-.BR XtDirectConvert
+.B XtDirectConvert
has been replaced by
.BR XtCallConverter .
