DESCRIPTION XpmCreateDataFromImage In some cases, one may want to create an XPM data from an XImage, to do so use XpmCreateDataFromImage(). The XpmCreateDataFromImage() function exactly works as XpmWriteFileFromImage(3) does and returns the same way. It just writes to a single block malloc'ed data instead of to a file. It is the caller's responsibility to free the data, using XpmFree(3) when finished.

XpmCreateDataFromPixmap XpmCreateDataFromPixmap() creates an XPM data from a Pixmap. The XpmCreateDataFromPixmap() function uses XGetImage(3) to get from the given pixmaps the related X images which are passed to XpmCreateDataFromImage(). Then it destroys the created images using XDestroyImage(3). XpmCreateDataFromPixmap() returns the same errors as XpmCreateDataFromImage().

XpmCreateDataFromXpmImage as well. It is the caller's responsibility to free the data, using XpmFree(3) when finished.
