XStoreBytes(3X11) MIT X11R4 XStoreBytes(3X11) Name XStoreBytes, XStoreBuffer, XFetchBytes, XFetchBuffer, XRotateBuffers - manipulate cut and paste buffers Syntax XStoreBytes(display, bytes, nbytes) Display *display; char *bytes; int nbytes; XStoreBuffer(display, bytes, nbytes, buffer) Display *display; char *bytes; int nbytes; int buffer; char *XFetchBytes(display, nbytes_return) Display *display; int *nbytes_return; char *XFetchBuffer(display, nbytes_return, buffer) Display *display; int *nbytes_return; int buffer; XRotateBuffers(display, rotate) Display *display; int rotate; Arguments buffer Specifies the buffer in which you want to store the bytes or from which you want the stored data returned. bytes Specifies the bytes, which are not necessarily ASCII or null-terminated. display Specifies the connection to the X server. nbytes Specifies the number of bytes to be stored. nbytes_return Returns the number of bytes in the buffer. rotate Specifies how much to rotate the cut buffers. Description Note that the cut buffer's contents need not be text, so zero bytes are not special. The cut buffer's contents can be retrieved later by any client calling can generate a error. If the property for the buffer has never been created, a error results. can generate and errors. The function returns the number of bytes in the nbytes_return argument, if the buffer contains data. Otherwise, the function returns NULL and sets nbytes to 0. The appropriate amount of storage is allocated and the pointer returned. The client must free this storage when finished with it by calling Note that the cut buffer does not necessarily contain text, so it may contain embedded zero bytes and may not terminate with a null byte. The function returns zero to the nbytes_return argument if there is no data in the buffer. can generate a error. The function rotates the cut buffers, such that buffer 0 becomes buffer n, buffer 1 becomes n + 1 mod 8, and so on. This cut buffer num- bering is global to the display. Note that generates errors if any of the eight buffers have not been created. can generate a error. Diagnostics The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory. A value for an Atom argument does not name a defined Atom. Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but fails to match in some other way required by the request. Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request. Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument defined as a set of alternatives can generate this error. See Also XFree(3X11) X Window System: The Complete Reference, Second Edition, Robert W.
