xfindcontext

XSaveContext(3X11)														XSaveContext(3X11)

NAME

       XSaveContext, XFindContext, XDeleteContext, XUniqueContext - associative look-up routines

SYNOPSIS

       int XSaveContext(display, rid, context, data)
	       Display *display;
	       XID rid;
	       XContext context;
	       XPointer data;

       int XFindContext(display, rid, context, data_return)
	       Display *display;
	       XID rid;
	       XContext context;
	       XPointer *data_return;

       int XDeleteContext(display, rid, context)
	       Display *display;
	       XID rid;
	       XContext context;

       XContext XUniqueContext()

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies  the  context	type  to which the data belongs.  Specifies the data to be associated with the window and type.  Returns the data.
       Specifies the connection to the X server.  Specifies the resource ID with which the data is associated.

DESCRIPTION

       If an entry with the specified resource ID and type already exists, XSaveContext overrides it with the specified context. The  XSaveContext
       function returns a nonzero error code if an error has occurred and zero otherwise. Possible errors are XCNOMEM (out of memory).

       Because	it  is	a return value, the data is a pointer. The XFindContext function returns a nonzero error code if an error has occurred and
       zero otherwise. Possible errors are XCNOENT (context-not-found).

       The XDeleteContext function deletes the entry for the given resource ID and type from the data structure. This function	returns  the  same
       error codes that XFindContext returns if called with the same arguments.  XDeleteContext does not free the data whose address was saved.

       The XUniqueContext function creates a unique context type that may be used in subsequent calls to XSaveContext.
