NAME

       XmClipboardInquireFormat -- A clipboard function that returns a specified format name

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/CutPaste.h>
       int XmClipboardInquireFormat (display, window, index, format_name_buf,
	       buffer_len, copied_len)
	       Display * display;
	       Window  window;
	       int     index;
	       XtPointer       format_name_buf;
	       unsigned long   buffer_len;
	       unsigned long   * copied_len;
       (void)

DESCRIPTION

       XmClipboardInquireFormat  returns  a  specified format name for the data item in the clipboard. If the name must be truncated, the function
       returns a warning status.

       display	 Specifies a pointer to the Display structure that was returned in a previous call to XOpenDisplay or XtDisplay.

       window	 Specifies the window ID of a widget that relates the application window to the clipboard. The widget's window ID can be  obtained
		 through XtWindow.  The same application instance should pass the same window ID to each of the clipboard functions that it calls.

       index	 Specifies  which  of  the  ordered format names to obtain. If this index is greater than the number of formats for the data item,
		 this function returns a 0 (zero) in the copied_len argument.

       format_name_buf
		 Specifies the buffer that receives the format name.

       buffer_len
		 Specifies the number of bytes in the format name buffer.

       copied_len
		 Specifies the number of bytes in the data item copied to the buffer.  If this argument equals 0 (zero), there is  no  nth  format
		 for the data item.

RETURN

       XmClipboardSuccess
		 The function was successful.

       XmClipboardLocked
		 The  function	failed	because the clipboard was locked by another application. The application can continue to call the function
		 again with the same parameters until the lock goes away. This gives the application the opportunity to ask if the user  wants	to
		 keep trying or to give up on the operation.

       XmClipboardTruncate
		 The data returned is truncated because the user did not provide a buffer large enough to hold the data.

       XmClipboardNoData
		 The  function could not find data on the clipboard corresponding to the format requested.  This could occur because the clipboard
		 is empty; there is data on the clipboard, but not in the requested format; or the data in the requested format was passed by name
		 and is no longer available.

NAME

       XmClipboardInquireLength -- A clipboard function that returns the length of the stored data

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/CutPaste.h>
       int XmClipboardInquireLength (display, window, format_name, length)
	       Display * display;
	       Window  window;
	       char    * format_name;
	       unsigned long   * length;
       (void)

DESCRIPTION

       XmClipboardInquireLength  returns  the  length  of the data stored under a specified format name for the clipboard data item. If no data is
       found for the specified format, or if there is no item on the clipboard, this function returns a value of 0 (zero) in the length argument.

       Any format passed by name is assumed to have length passed in a call to XmClipboardCopy, even though the data has not yet been  transferred
       to the clipboard in that format.

       display	 Specifies a pointer to the Display structure that was returned in a previous call to XOpenDisplay or XtDisplay.

       window	 Specifies  the window ID of a widget that relates the application window to the clipboard. The widget's window ID can be obtained
		 through XtWindow.  The same application instance should pass the same window ID to each of the clipboard functions that it calls.

       format_name
		 Specifies the name of the format for the data item.

       length	 Specifies the length of the next data item in the specified format. This argument equals 0 (zero) if no data  is  found  for  the
		 specified format, or if there is no item on the clipboard.

RETURN

       XmClipboardSuccess
		 The function was successful.

       XmClipboardLocked
		 The  function	failed	because the clipboard was locked by another application. The application can continue to call the function
		 again with the same parameters until the lock goes away. This gives the application the opportunity to ask if the user  wants	to
		 keep trying or to give up on the operation.

       XmClipboardNoData
		 The  function	could not find data on the clipboard corresponding to the format requested. This could occur because the clipboard
		 is empty; there is data on the clipboard, but not in the requested format; or the data in the requested format was passed by name
		 and is no longer available.
