XmSetProtocolHooks


NAME

XmSetProtocolHooks - A VendorShell function that allows pre and post actions to be executed when a protocol message is received from MWM

SYNOPSIS

#include <Xm/Xm.h>
#include <Xm/Protocols.h>
void XmSetProtocolHooks (shell, property, protocol, prehook, pre_closure,
          posthook, post_closure)
      Widget          shell;
      Atom            property;
      Atom            protocol;
      XtCallbackProc  prehook;
      XtPointer       pre_closure;
      XtCallbackProc  posthook;
      XtPointer       post_closure;
void XmSetWMProtocolHooks (shell, protocol, prehook, pre_closure,
          posthook, post_closure)
      Widget          shell;
      Atom            protocol;
      XtCallbackProc  prehook;
      XtPointer       pre_closure;
      XtCallbackProc  posthook;
      XtPointer       post_closure;

DESCRIPTION

XmSetProtocolHooks is used by shells that want to have pre and post actions executed when a protocol message is received from MWM. Since there is no guaranteed ordering in execution of event handlers or callback lists, this allows the shell to control the flow while leaving the protocol manager structures opaque.

XmSetWMProtocolHooks is a convenience interface. It calls XmSetProtocolHooks with the property value set to the atom returned by interning WM_PROTOCOLS.

shell
Specifies the widget with which the protocol property is associated
property
Specifies the protocol property
protocol
Specifies the protocol atom (or an int cast to Atom)
prehook
Specifies the procedure to call before calling entries on the client callback-list
pre_closure
Specifies the client data to be passed to the prehook when it is invoked
posthook
Specifies the procedure to call after calling entries on the client callback-list
post_closure
Specifies the client data to be passed to the posthook when it is invoked
