6 XSelectionRequestEvent - SelectionRequest event structure
7
9 The structure for SelectionRequest events contains:
10
11 typedef struct {
12 int type; /* SelectionRequest */
13 unsigned long serial; /* # of last request processed by server */
14 Bool send_event; /* true if this came from a SendEvent request */
15 Display *display; /* Display the event was read from */
16 Window owner;
17 Window requestor;
18 Atom selection;
19 Atom target;
20 Atom property;
21 Time time;
22 } XSelectionRequestEvent;
23
24 When you receive this event, the structure members are set as follows.
25
26 The type member is set to the event type constant name that uniquely
27 identifies it. For example, when the X server reports a GraphicsExpose
28 event to a client application, it sends an XGraphicsExposeEvent struc‐
29 ture with the type member set to GraphicsExpose. The display member is
30 set to a pointer to the display the event was read on. The send_event
31 member is set to True if the event came from a SendEvent protocol re‐
32 quest. The serial member is set from the serial number reported in the
33 protocol but expanded from the 16-bit least-significant bits to a full
34 32-bit value. The window member is set to the window that is most use‐
35 ful to toolkit dispatchers.
36
37 The owner member is set to the window that was specified by the current
38 owner in its XSetSelectionOwner call. The requestor member is set to
39 the window requesting the selection. The selection member is set to
40 the atom that names the selection. For example, PRIMARY is used to in‐
41 dicate the primary selection. The target member is set to the atom
42 that indicates the type the selection is desired in. The property mem‐
43 ber can be a property name or None. The time member is set to the
44 timestamp or CurrentTime value from the ConvertSelection request.
