XmClipboardLock(3) Library Functions Manual XmClipboardLock(3) NAME XmClipboardLock -- A clipboard function that locks the clipboard SYNOPSIS #include <Xm/CutPaste.h> int XmClipboardLock (display, window) Display * display; Window window; (void) DESCRIPTION XmClipboardLock locks the clipboard from access by another application until XmClipboardUnlock is called. All clipboard functions lock and un- lock the clipboard to prevent simultaneous access. This function allows the application to keep the clipboard data from changing between calls to Inquire and other clipboard functions. The application does not need to lock the clipboard between calls to XmClipboardStartCopy and XmClip- boardEndCopy or to XmClipboardStartRetrieve and XmClipboardEndRetrieve. If the clipboard is already locked by another application, XmClipboard- Lock returns an error status. Multiple calls to this function by the same application increase the lock level. display Specifies a pointer to the Display structure that was re- turned in a previous call to XOpenDisplay or XtDisplay. window Specifies the window ID of a widget that relates the applica- tion 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 func- tions that it calls. RETURN XmClipboardSuccess The function was successful. XmClipboardLocked The function failed because the clipboard was locked by an- other 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.
