XtSelectionDoneIncrProc() XtSelectionDoneIncrProc()
Name
XtSelectionDoneIncrProc - interface definition for procedure called when an incremental selection transfer completes.
Synopsis
typedef void (*XtSelectionDoneIncrProc)(Widget, Atom *, Atom *,
XtRequestId *, XtPointer);
Widget w;
Atom *selection;
Atom *target;
XtRequestId *request_id;
XtPointer client_data;
Inputs
w Specifies the widget that owns the selection.
selection Specifies the atom that names the selection being transferred.
target Specifies the target type to which the conversion was done.
request_id
Identifies the specific conversion request that completed.
client_data
Specifies data registered with this procedure when the widget took ownership of the selection.
Availability
Release 4 and later.
Description
An XtSelectionDoneIncrProc is optionally registered in a call to XtOwnSelectionIncremental(), and is called by the Intrinsics after the
requestor has retrieved the final (zero-length) segment of the incremental transfer to indicate that the entire transfer is complete. The
w, selection, and client_data arguments are those passed to XtOwnSelectionIncremental(). The target and request_id arguments are those
that were passed to the XtConvertSelectionIncrProc registered with this procedure.
An XtSelectionDoneIncrProc should free any memory that was allocated for the transfer of the selection value. If no procedure is speci-
fied, the Intrinsics will automatically free (using XtFree()) the last value returned by the XtConvertSelectionIncrProc. If a single buf-
fer is used to transfer all the chunks of the selection, this automatic freeing by the Intrinsics should be sufficient. If separate buf-
fers are used or other memory or resources are allocated to transfer the selection value, an XtSelectionDoneIncrProc should be provided to
free them.
Usage
It is usually more convenient to use the Intrinsics atomic selection transfer mechanism which transfers the selection value in a single
chunk. See XtOwnSelection(1) and XtSelectionDoneProc for more information.
