Tk_OwnSelection(3) Tk Library Procedures Tk_OwnSelection(3)
NAME
Tk_OwnSelection - make a window the owner of the primary selection
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
Tk_OwnSelection(tkwin, selection, proc, clientData)
ARGUMENTS
Window that is to become new selection owner. The name of the selec-
tion to be owned, such as XA_PRIMARY. Procedure to invoke when tkwin
loses selection ownership later. Arbitrary one-word value to pass to
proc.
DESCRIPTION
Tk_OwnSelection arranges for tkwin to become the new owner of the
selection specified by the atom selection. After this call completes,
future requests for the selection will be directed to handlers created
for tkwin using Tk_CreateSelHandler. When tkwin eventually loses the
selection ownership, proc will be invoked so that the window can clean
itself up (e.g. by unhighlighting the selection). Proc should have
arguments and result that match the type Tk_LostSelProc: typedef void
Tk_LostSelProc(ClientData clientData); The clientData parameter to proc
is a copy of the clientData argument given to Tk_OwnSelection, and is
usually a pointer to a data structure containing application-specific
information about tkwin.
