XmClipboardEndCopy(Xm)
XmClipboardEndCopy --
a clipboard function that ends a copy to the clipboard
Syntax
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
#include <Xm/CutPaste.h>
int XmClipboardEndCopy (display, window, item_id)
Display * display;
Window window;
long item_id;
Description
XmClipboardEndCopy locks the clipboard from access by other applications,
places data in the clipboard data structure, and unlocks the clipboard.
Data items copied to the clipboard by XmClipboardCopy are not actually
entered in the clipboard data structure until the call to
XmClipboardEndCopy.
This function also frees up temporary storage that was allocated by
XmClipboardStartCopy, which must be called before
XmClipboardEndCopy. The latter function should not be called if
XmClipboardCancelCopy has been called.
display-
Specifies a pointer to the Display structure that was returned in a
previous call to XOpenDisplay or XtDisplay.
window-
Specifies a widget's window ID that relates the application window to the
clipboard. The widget's window ID can be obtained by using
XtWindow.
The same application instance should pass the same window ID to each
clipboard function it calls.
item_id-
Specifies the number assigned to this data item. This number was returned
by a previous call to XmClipboardStartCopy.
Return value
ClipboardSuccess-
The function is successful.
ClipboardLocked-
The function failed because the clipboard was locked by another
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.
ClipboardFail-
The function failed because XmClipboardStartCopy was not called.
