XtAppSetSelectionTimeout() XtAppSetSelectionTimeout()
Name
XtAppSetSelectionTimeout - set the Intrinsics selection timeout value.
Synopsis
void XtAppSetSelectionTimeout(app_context, timeout)
XtAppContext app_context;
unsigned long timeout;
Inputs
app_context
Specifies the application context.
timeout Specifies the selection timeout in milliseconds.
Description
XtAppSetSelectionTimeout() sets the Intrinsics selection timeout value for the specified application context. The selection timeout is the
time within which two communicating applications must respond to one another. The initial timeout value is set by the selectionTimeout
application resource, which has a default value of 5000 milliseconds (5 seconds).
Usage
The current timeout value can be retrieved by a call to XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(). You should rarely need to query or set this value. In
particular, an application generally should not change this value except under the explicit request of the user.
