XtAppGetSelectionTimeout, XtAppSetSelectionTimeout - set and obtain selection
timeout values
SYNTAX
unsigned long
XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(XtAppContext app_context);
void
XtAppSetSelectionTimeout(XtAppContext app_context, unsigned long
timeout);
ARGUMENTS
- app_context
- Specifies the application context.
- timeout
- Specifies the selection timeout in milliseconds.
DESCRIPTION
The
XtAppGetSelectionTimeout function returns the current selection
timeout value, in milliseconds. The selection timeout is the time within which
the two communicating applications must respond to one another. The initial
timeout value is set by the
selectionTimeout application resource, or,
if
selectionTimeout is not specified, it defaults to five seconds.
The
XtAppSetSelectionTimeout function sets the Intrinsics's selection
timeout mechanism. Note that most applications should not set the selection
timeout.
