XtOwnSelection(3Xt)													       XtOwnSelection(3Xt)

NAME

       XtOwnSelection, XtOwnSelectionIncremental, XtDisownSelection - set selection owner

SYNOPSIS

       Boolean XtOwnSelection(w, selection, time, convert_proc, lose_selection, done_proc)
	       Widget w;
	       Atom selection;
	       Time time;
	       XtConvertSelectionProc convert_proc;
	       XtLoseSelectionProc lose_selection;
	       XtSelectionDoneProc done_proc;

       Boolean XtOwnSelectionIncremental(w, selection, time, convert_callback, lose_callback, done_callback, cancel_callback, client_data)
	       Widget w;
	       Atom selection;
	       Time time;
	       XtConvertSelectionIncrProc convert_callback;
	       XtLoseSelectionIncrProc lose_callback;
	       XtSelectionDoneIncrProc done_callback;
	       XtCancelConvertSelectionProc cancel_callback;
	       XtPointer client_data;

       void XtDisownSelection(w, selection, time)
	       Widget w;
	       Atom selection;
	       Time time;

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies the procedure that is to be called whenever someone requests the current value of the selection.  Specifies the procedure that is
       called after the requestor has received the selection or NULL if the owner is not interested in being called back.  Specifies the procedure
       that  is to be called whenever the widget has lost selection ownership or NULL if the owner is not interested in being called back.  Speci-
       fies an atom that describes the type of the selection (for example, XA_PRIMARY, XA_SECONDARY, or XA_CLIPBOARD).	 Specifies  the  timestamp
       that indicates when the selection ownership should commence or is to be relinquished.  Specifies the widget that wishes to become the owner
       or to relinquish ownership.

DESCRIPTION

       The XtOwnSelection function informs the Intrinsics selection mechanism that a widget believes it owns a selection. It returns True  if  the
       widget  has  successfully  become  the owner and False otherwise. The widget may fail to become the owner if some other widget has asserted
       ownership at a time later than this widget. Note that widgets can lose selection ownership either because someone else asserted later  own-
       ership  of  the selection or because the widget voluntarily gave up ownership of the selection. Also note that the lose_selection procedure
       is not called if the widget fails to obtain selection ownership in the first place.

       The XtOwnSelectionInrcremental procedure informs the Intrinsics incremental selection mechanism that the specified widget wishes to own the
       selection.  It returns True if the specified widget successfully becomes the selection owner or False otherwise. For more information about
       selection, target, and time, see Section 2.6 of the Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual.

       A widget that becomes the selection owner using XtOwnSelectionIncremental may use XtDisownSelection to relinquish selection ownership.

       The XtDisownSelection function informs the Intrinsics selection mechanism that the specified widget is to lose ownership of the	selection.
       If  the	widget	does  not  currently own the selection either because it lost the selection or because it never had the selection to begin
       with, XtDisownSelection does nothing.

       After a widget has called XtDisownSelection, its convert procedure is not called even if a request arrives later with  a  timestamp  during
       the period that this widget owned the selection. However, its done procedure will be called if a conversion that started before the call to
       XtDisownSelection finishes after the call to XtDisownSelection.

NAME

       XtOwnSelection, XtOwnSelectionIncremental, XtDisownSelection - set selection owner

SYNTAX

       Boolean XtOwnSelection(w, selection, time, convert_proc, lose_selection, done_proc)
	     Widget w;
	     Atom selection;
	     Time time;
	     XtConvertSelectionProc convert_proc;
	     XtLoseSelectionProc lose_selection;

       Boolean XtOwnSelectionIncremental(w, selection, time, convert_callback, lose_callback, done_callback, cancel_callback, client_data)
	     Widget w;

       void XtDisownSelection(w, selection, time)
	     Widget w;
	     Atom selection;
	     Time time;

ARGUMENTS

       convert_proc
		 Specifies the procedure that is to be called whenever someone requests the current value of the selection.

       done_proc Specifies the procedure that is called after the requestor has received the selection or NULL if the owner is not interested in
		 being called back.

       lose_selection
		 Specifies the procedure that is to be called whenever the widget has lost selection ownership or NULL if the owner is not inter-
		 ested in being called back.

       selection Specifies an atom that describes the type of the selection (for example, XA_PRIMARY, XA_SECONDARY, or XA_CLIPBOARD).

       time	 Specifies the timestamp that indicates when the selection ownership should commence or is to be relinquished.

       w	 Specifies the widget that wishes to become the owner or to relinquish ownership.

DESCRIPTION

       The XtOwnSelection function informs the Intrinsics selection mechanism that a widget believes it owns a selection.  It returns True if the
       widget has successfully become the owner and False otherwise.  The widget may fail to become the owner if some other widget has asserted
       ownership at a time later than this widget.  Note that widgets can lose selection ownership either because someone else asserted later own-
       ership of the selection or because the widget voluntarily gave up ownership of the selection.  Also note that the lose_selection procedure
       is not called if the widget fails to obtain selection ownership in the first place.

       The XtOwnSelectionInrcremental procedure informs the Intrinsics incremental selection mechanism that the specified widget wishes to own the
       selection. It returns True if the specified widget successfully becomes the selection owner or False otherwise. For more information about
       selection, target, and time, see Section 2.6 of the Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual.

       A widget that becomes the selection owner using XtOwnSelectionIncremental may use XtDisownSelection to relinquish selection ownership.

       The XtDisownSelection function informs the Intrinsics selection mechanism that the specified widget is to lose ownership of the selection.
       If the widget does not currently own the selection either because it lost the selection or because it never had the selection to begin
       with, XtDisownSelection does nothing.

       After a widget has called XtDisownSelection, its convert procedure is not called even if a request arrives later with a timestamp during
       the period that this widget owned the selection.  However, its done procedure will be called if a conversion that started before the call
       to XtDisownSelection finishes after the call to XtDisownSelection.
