InsertResMenu

Insert names of selected resource type into menu

#include <Menus.h> Menu Manager

void InsertResMenu(theMenu, theResType, afterItem );

MenuHandle theMenu ; handle of existing menu

ResType theResType ; resource Type; e.g. 'FONT' or 'DRVR'

short afterItem ; names are inserted after this; 0=at top

InsertResMenu searches all open resource files to obtain a list of the names

of resources of a specified type. The names are inserted into the specified

menu, in alphabetical order, starting at the specified position.

theMenu is the handle of a menu obtained via NewMenu or GetMenu. It

leads to a variable-length MenuInfo structure that is allocated on the

heap.

theResType is a 4-byte resource type, such as 'FONT' or 'DRVR'. All such

resources are searched and their names are added to theMenu as

items.

Note: To exempt an application resource from this list, you may

name it starting with a period (.) or percent sign (%). Or, you can

remove it from the list before displaying via DelMenuItem.

Notes: The items are sorted alphabetically, ignoring case. This does not sort

items that are already in the menu.

Since inserting, for example, a list of fonts, into the middle of a menu will

likely cause confusion, we are encouraged to avoid using this function.
