ttdt_Get_Modified(library call) 										   ttdt_Get_Modified(library call)

NAME
ttdt_Get_Modified -- ask if any ToolTalk client has changes pending on a file SYNOPSIS
#include <Tt/tttk.h> int ttdt_Get_Modified( Tt_message context, const char *pathname, Tt_scope the_scope, XtAppContext app2run, int ms_timeout); DESCRIPTION
The ttdt_Get_Modified function sends a Get_Modified request in the scope the_scope and waits for the reply. A Get_Modified request asks if any ToolTalk client has changes pending on pathname that it intends to make persistent. The context argument describes the environment to use. If context is not zero, messages created by ttdt_Get_Modified inherit from context all contexts whose slotname begins with the characters ENV_. That is, the environment described in context is propagated to messages cre- ated by ttdt_Get_Modified. The pathname argument is a pointer to a pathname on which the client is operating. The the_scope argument identifies the scope of the request. If the_scope is TT_SCOPE_NONE, ttdt_Get_Modified 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_Get_Modified function passes app2run and ms_timeout to tttk_block_while(3), blocking on the reply to the Get_Modified request it sends. RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the ttdt_Get_Modified function returns non-zero if the Get_Modified request receives an affirmative reply within ms_timeout milliseconds; otherwise, it returns zero. SEE ALSO

NAME
ttdt_file_request -- create and send a standard ToolTalk request about a file SYNOPSIS
#include <Tt/tttk.h> Tt_message ttdt_file_request( Tt_message context, Tttk_op op, Tt_scope scope, const char *pathname, Ttdt_file_cb cb, void *client_data, int send_and_destroy); DESCRIPTION
The ttdt_file_request function is used to create (and optionally send) any of the standard Desktop file requests such as Get_Modified, Save, and Revert. The ttdt_file_request function creates a request with the specified op and scope, and sets its file attribute to pathname. The function adds an unset argument of Tt_mode TT_IN and vtype File to the request, per the Desktop messaging conventions. If op is TTDT_GET_MODIFIED, ttdt_file_request also adds an unset TT_OUT argument of vtype Boolean to the request. The ttdt_file_request function installs cb as a mes- sage callback for the created request, and ensures that client_data will be passed into the callback. (The Ttdt_file_cb callback is described under ttdt_file_join(3)). If send is True, ttdt_file_request sends the request before returning the handle to it; otherwise, it only creates the request. The context argument describes the environment to use. If context is not zero, messages created by ttdt_file_request inherit from context all contexts whose slotname begins with the characters ENV_. RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the ttdt_file_request function returns the created Tt_message; otherwise, it returns an error pointer. The application can use tt_ptr_error(3) to extract one of the following Tt_status values from the returned handle: 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. APPLICATION USAGE
The ttdt_file_request function is a lower-level interface than ttdt_Get_Modified, ttdt_Save, and ttdt_Revert, since the latter functions create and send the request and then block on its reply. SEE ALSO
