XtProcessEvent() XtProcessEvent() Name XtProcessEvent - get and process one input event of a specified type. Synopsis void XtProcessEvent(mask) XtInputMask mask; Inputs mask Specifies what types of events to process. Availability XtProcessEvent() has been superseded by XtAppProcessEvent(). Description XtProcessEvent() processes one X event, alternate input source event or timer event. The mask argument specifies which types of events are to be processed; it is the bitwise inclusive OR ( ) of any of the values XtIMXEvent, XtIMTimer, or XtIMAlternateInput, or the value XtIMAll which specifies all three event types. XtProcessEvent() calls any registered background work procedures if there are no events available, and blocks if there are no events and no work procedures. Usage XtProcessEvent() has been superseded by XtAppProcessEvent(), which performs the same function on a per-application context basis. XtPro- cessEvent() now calls XtAppProcessEvent() passing the default application context created by XtInitialize(). Very few programs need multiple application contexts, and you can continue to use XtProcessEvent() if you initialize your application with XtInitialize(). We recommend, however, that you use XtAppInitialize(), XtAppProcessEvent(), and the other XtApp*() application context specific functions. See XtAppProcessEvent() for more information. Programs rarely need this much control over the event dispatching mechanism. Most programs use XtAppMainLoop(). See Also XtAppMainLoop(1), XtAppPeekEvent(1), XtAppPending(1), XtAppProcessEvent(1).
