ARGUMENTS

18       app_context
19                 Specifies the application context.

DESCRIPTION

24       The XtAppGetSelectionTimeout function returns the current selection
25       timeout value, in milliseconds.  The selection timeout is the time
26       within which the two communicating applications must respond to one an‐
27       other.  The initial timeout value is set by the selectionTimeout appli‐
28       cation resource, or, if selectionTimeout is not specified, it defaults
29       to five seconds.
30
31       The XtAppSetSelectionTimeout function sets the Intrinsics's selection
32       timeout mechanism.  Note that most applications should not set the se‐
33       lection timeout.
