| 32 | .SH NAME | 
|---|
| 33 | \fBmenu_items\fR - make and break connections between items and menus | 
|---|
| 34 | .SH SYNOPSIS | 
|---|
| 35 | \fB#include <menu.h>\fR | 
|---|
| 36 | .br | 
|---|
| 37 | int set_menu_items(MENU *menu, ITEM **items); | 
|---|
| 38 | .br | 
|---|
| 39 | ITEM **menu_items(const MENU *menu); |

| 43 | .SH DESCRIPTION | 
|---|
| 44 | The function \fBset_menu_items\fR changes the item pointer array of the given | 
|---|
| 45 | \fImenu\fR.  The array must be terminated by a \fBNULL\fR. | 
|---|
| 46 |  | 
|---|
| 47 | The function \fBmenu_items\fR returns the item array of the given menu. | 
|---|
| 48 |  | 
|---|
| 49 | The function \fBitem_count\fR returns the count of items in \fImenu\fR. | 
|---|
| 50 | .SH RETURN VALUES | 
|---|
| 51 | The function \fBmenu_items\fR returns \fBNULL\fR on error. | 
|---|
| 52 |  | 
|---|
| 53 | The function \fBitem_count\fR returns \fBERR\fR (the general \fBcurses\fR error | 
|---|
| 54 | return value) on error. | 
|---|
| 55 |  | 
|---|
| 56 | The function \fBset_menu_items\fR returns one of the following codes on error: | 
|---|
| 57 | .TP 5 | 
|---|
| 58 | \fBE_OK\fR | 
|---|
| 59 | The routine succeeded. | 
|---|
| 60 | .TP 5 | 
|---|
| 61 | \fBE_SYSTEM_ERROR\fR | 
|---|
| 62 | System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fR). | 
|---|
| 63 | .TP 5 | 
|---|
| 64 | \fBE_BAD_ARGUMENT\fR | 
|---|
| 65 | Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument. | 
|---|
| 66 | .TP 5 | 
|---|
| 67 | \fBE_POSTED\fR | 
|---|
| 68 | The menu is already posted. | 
|---|
| 69 | .TP 5 | 
|---|
| 70 | \fBE_NOT_CONNECTED\fR | 
|---|
| 71 | No items are connected to the menu. | 
|---|
| 72 | .SH SEE ALSO | 
|---|
| 73 | \fBcurses\fR(3X), \fBmenu\fR(3X). | 
|---|
| 74 | .SH NOTES | 
|---|
| 75 | The header file \fB<menu.h>\fR automatically includes the header file | 
|---|
| 76 | \fB<curses.h>\fR. | 
|---|
| 77 | .SH PORTABILITY | 
|---|
| 78 | These routines emulate the System V menu library.  They were not supported on | 
|---|
| 79 | Version 7 or BSD versions. | 
|---|
| 80 |  | 
|---|
| 81 | The SVr4 menu library documentation specifies the \fBitem_count\fR error value | 
|---|
| 82 | as -1 (which is the value of \fBERR\fR). |
