XmClipboardCancelCopy
NAME
XmClipboardCancelCopy - A clipboard function that
cancels a copy to the clipboard
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
#include <Xm/CutPaste.h>
int XmClipboardCancelCopy(display, window, item_id)
Display * display;
Window window;
long item_id;
DESCRIPTION
XmClipboardCancelCopy cancels the copy to
clipboard that is in progress and frees up temporary storage. When a
copy is to be performed, XmClipboardStartCopy allocates
temporary storage for the clipboard data. XmClipboardCopy copies the
appropriate data into the the temporary storage. XmClipboardEndCopy copies the
data to the clipboard structure and frees up the temporary storage
structures. If XmClipboardCancelCopy is called, the
XmClipboardEndCopy
function does not have to be called. A call to
XmClipboardCancelCopy is valid only after a call to
XmClipboardStartCopy and
before a call to XmClipboardEndCopy.
- 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 of the clipboard functions that 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 or because the data item contains too many formats.
