     void XtGetApplicationResources(w, base, resources,
     num_resources, args, num_args)
           Widget w;
           caddr_t base;
           XtResourceList resources;

     This is user-contributed.

ARGUMENTS
     args      Specifies the argument list to override resources
               obtained from the resource database.

     base      Specifies the base address of the subpart data
               structure where the resources should be written.

     class     Specifies the class of the subpart.

     name      Specifies the name of the subpart.

     num_args  Specifies the number of arguments in the argument
               list.

     num_resources
               Specifies the number of resources in the resource
               list.

     resources Specifies the resource list for the subpart.

     w         Specifies the widget that wants resources for a
               subpart or that identifies the resource database
               to search.

DESCRIPTION
     The XtGetSubresources function constructs a name/class list
     from the application name/class, the name/classes of all its
     ancestors, and the widget itself.  Then, it appends to this
     list the name/class pair passed in.  The resources are
     fetched from the argument list, the resource database, or
     the default values in the resource list.  Then, they are
     copied into the subpart record.  If args is NULL, num_args
     must be zero.  However, if num_args is zero, the argument
     list is not referenced.

     The XtGetApplicationResources function first uses the passed
     widget, which is usually an application shell, to construct
     a resource name and class list, Then, it retrieves the
     resources from the argument list, the resource database, or
     the resource list default values.  After adding base to each
     address, XtGetApplicationResources copies the resources into
     the address given in the resource list.  If args is NULL,
     num_args must be zero.  However, if num_args is zero, the
     argument list is not referenced.  The portable way to
     specify application resources is to declare them as members
     of a structure and pass the address of the structure as the
     base argument.
