menu_userptr(3X) menu_userptr(3X)
set_menu_userptr, menu_userptr - associate application data with a
menu item
#include <menu.h>
int set_menu_userptr(MENU *menu, void *userptr);
void *menu_userptr(const MENU *menu);
Every menu and every menu item has a field that can be used to hold
application-specific data (that is, the menu-driver code leaves it
alone). These functions get and set the menu user pointer field.
menu_userptr returns a pointer (which may be NULL). It does not set
errno.
set_menu_userptr returns E_OK (success).
curses(3X), menu(3X).
The header file <menu.h> automatically includes the header file
<curses.h>.
These routines emulate the System V menu library. They were not
supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
The user pointer is a void pointer. We chose not to leave it as a
char pointer for SVr4 compatibility.
