Example

The following code segment creates a general help dialog (as a child of parent) using the convenience function. The dialog is left unmanaged--presumably it is managed elsewhere in the application when a help request is made.

Widget   mainHelpDialog, moreButton, helpButton;
 ac = 0;
 XtSetArg (al[ac], XmNtitle,  "My Application - Help");  ac++;
 XtSetArg (al[ac], DtNhelpVolume,  "My Help Volume");  ac++;
 XtSetArg (al[ac], DtNlocationId,  "Getting Started");  ac++;
 XtSetArg (al[ac], DtNhelpType,  "DtHELP_TYPE_TOPIC");  ac++;

 mainHelpDialog =
   DtCreateHelpDialog (parent,  "mainHelpDialog", al, ac);

The following two calls add the hyperlink and close callbacks to the dialog. Presumably, the functions HyperlinkCB() and CloseHelpCB() are declared elsewhere in the application.

XtAddCallback (mainHelpDialog, DtNhyperLinkCallback,
 				HyperlinkCB, (XtPointer)NULL);
 XtAddCallback (mainHelpDialog, DtNcloseCallback,
                CloseHelpCB, (XtPointer)NULL);
