typedef struct { int type; /* PropertyNotify */ unsigned long serial; /* # of last request processed by server */ Bool send_event; /* true if this came from a SendEvent request */ Display *display; /* Display the event was read from */ Window window; Atom atom; Time time; int state; /* PropertyNewValue or PropertyDelete */ } XPropertyEvent;
When you receive this event, the structure members are set as follows.
The type
member is set to the event type
constant name that uniquely identifies it.
For example, when the X server reports a
GraphicsExpose event to a client application,
it sends an XGraphicsExposeEvent
structure with the type
member set to GraphicsExpose.
The display
member is set to a pointer
to the display the event was read on.
The send_event
member is set to True
if the event came from a SendEvent protocol request.
The serial
member is set from the serial
number reported in the protocol but expanded from the
16-bit least-significant bits to a full 32-bit value.
The window
member is set to the window that is
most useful to toolkit dispatchers.
The window
member is set to the window whose associated
property was changed.
The atom
member is set to the property's atom and
indicates which property was changed or desired.
The time
member is set to the server time
when the property was changed.
The state
member is set to indicate whether the property
was changed to a new value or deleted and can be
PropertyNewValue or PropertyDelete.
The state
member is set to PropertyNewValue
when a property of the window is changed using
XChangeProperty or XRotateWindowProperties
(even when adding zero-length data using XChangeProperty)
and when replacing all or part of a property with
identical data using XChangeProperty or
XRotateWindowProperties.
The state
member is set to PropertyDelete
when a property of the window is deleted using
XDeleteProperty or, if the delete argument is
True, XGetWindowProperty.
