 * NAME: _set_resource_values
 *
 * FUNCTION:
 *	This function sets the value on the widget.  It must first determine
 *	if the last part is a valid resource for that widget.  (eg.
 *	labelString is a valid resource for label but not for bulletin board)
 *	It must also add the resource to the application's resource database
 *	and then query it out using specific resource strings that it builds
 *	from the widget information.  This ensures that a customizing tool
 *	on-the-fly paradigm is followed:  an application that is
 *	instantaneously updated should look the same as one that is restarted
 *	and uses the .Xdefaults file.
 *
 * PARAMETERS:
 *	w		the widget to match
 *	resource	the resource string to be matched
 *	value		the value to be set
 *	last_part	the last resource part (e.g. *background)
 *
 * RETURN VALUES: void
 *
 * ERRORS: none
