NAME

       tt_spec_move -- notify the ToolTalk service that an object has moved to a different file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       char *tt_spec_move(
       const char *objid,
       const char *newfilepath);

DESCRIPTION

       The tt_spec_move function notifies the ToolTalk service that this object has moved to a different file.

       The ToolTalk service returns a new objid for the object and leaves a forwarding pointer from the old objid to the new one.

       If  a  new  objid  is  not  required  (for  example,  because  the  new	and  old  files are in the same file system), tt_spec_move returns
       TT_WRN_SAME_OBJID.

       The objid argument is the identifier of the object involved in this operation.

       The newfilepath argument is the new file name.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, the tt_spec_move function returns the new unique identifier of the object  involved	in  this  operation.   The
       application can use tt_ptr_error(3) to extract one of the following Tt_status values from the returned pointer:

       TT_OK	 The operation completed successfully.

       TT_ERR_DBAVAIL
		 The ToolTalk service could not access the ToolTalk database needed for this operation.

       TT_ERR_DBEXIST
		 The ToolTalk service could not access the specified ToolTalk database in the expected place.

       TT_ERR_NOMP
		 The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it.

       TT_ERR_OBJID
		 The objid passed to the ToolTalk service does not reference an existing object spec.

       TT_ERR_PATH
		 The specified pathname included an unsearchable directory.

       TT_WRN_SAME_OBJID
		 A new objid is not required.

APPLICATION USAGE

       The application should use tt_free(3) to free any data stored in the address returned by the ToolTalk API.

       For  efficiency	and  reliability, the application should replace any references in the application to the old objid with references to the
       new one.

NAME

       ttdt_Revert -- request a ToolTalk client to revert a file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Tt/tttk.h>
       Tt_status ttdt_Revert(
       Tt_message context,
       const char *pathname,
       Tt_scope the_scope,
       XtAppContext app2run,
       int ms_timeout);

DESCRIPTION

       The  ttdt_Revert  function  sends  a  Revert request in the the_scope argument and waits for the reply.	A Revert request asks the handling
       ToolTalk client to discard any changes pending on pathname.

       The context argument describes the environment to use.  If context is not zero, messages created by ttdt_Revert inherit	from  context  all
       contexts whose slotname begins with the characters ENV_.

       The  the_scope  argument  identifies the scope of the request.  If the_scope is TT_SCOPE_NONE, ttdt_Revert tries TT_BOTH, and falls back to
       TT_FILE_IN_SESSION if, for example, the ToolTalk database server is not installed on the file server that owns pathname.

       The ttdt_Revert function passes app2run and ms_timeout to tttk_block_while(3), blocking on the reply to the Save request it sends.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, the ttdt_Revert function returns the status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values:

       TT_OK	 The sent request received an affirmative reply within ms_timeout milliseconds.

       TT_DESKTOP_ETIMEDOUT
		 No reply was received within ms_timeout milliseconds.

       TT_DESKTOP_EPROTO
		 The request was failed, but the handler set the tt_message_status of the failure reply to TT_OK, instead of a specific error sta-
		 tus.

       TT_ERR_DBAVAIL
		 The ToolTalk service could not access the ToolTalk database needed for this operation.

       TT_ERR_DBEXIST
		 The ToolTalk service could not access the specified ToolTalk database in the expected place.

       TT_ERR_NOMEM
		 There is insufficient memory available to perform the function.

       TT_ERR_NOMP
		 The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it.

       TT_ERR_OVERFLOW
		 The  ToolTalk service has more active messages than it can handle.  (The maximum number of active messages is implementation spe-
		 cific, but is at least 2000.)

       TT_ERR_POINTER
		 The pathname argument was NULL or was a ToolTalk error pointer.

       TT_ERR_PROCID
		 The specified process identifier is out of date or invalid.
