NAME
       MrmRegisterClass	 -- Saves the information needed for MRM to access the
       widget creation function	for user-defined widgets

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<Mrm/MrmPublic.h>
       Cardinal	MrmRegisterClass(
       MrmType class_code,
       String class_name,
       String create_name,
       Widget (*create_proc) (),
       WidgetClass class_record);

DESCRIPTION
       The MrmRegisterClass function allows MRM	to access user-defined	widget
       classes.	  This function	registers the necessary	information for	MRM to
       create widgets of this class.  You must call MrmRegisterClass prior  to
       fetching	any user-defined class widget.

       MrmRegisterClass	saves the information needed to	access the widget cre-
       ation function and to do	type conversion	of argument lists by using the
       information in MRM databases.

       class_code
		 This  argument	 is  ignored;  it is present for compatibility
		 with previous releases.

       class_name
		 This argument is ignored; it  is  present  for	 compatibility
		 with previous releases.

       create_name
		 Specifies  the	 case-sensitive	 name  of the low-level	widget
		 creation function for the class.  An example from  the	 Motif
		 Toolkit is XmCreateLabel.  Arguments are parent_widget, name,
		 override_arglist, and override_argcount.

		 For  user-defined widgets, create_name	is the creation	proce-
		 dure in the UIL that defines this widget.

       create_proc
		 Specifies the address of the creation function	that you named
		 in create_name.

       class_record
		 Specifies a pointer to	the class record.

RETURN
       This function returns one of the	following status return	constants:
