typedef struct { int type; /* SelectionRequest */ 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 owner; Window requestor; Atom selection; Atom target; Atom property; Time time; } XSelectionRequestEvent;
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 owner
member is set to the window that was specified
by the current owner in its XSetSelectionOwner call.
The requestor
member is set to the window requesting the selection.
The selection
member is set to the atom that names the selection.
For example, PRIMARY is used to indicate the primary selection.
The target
member is set to the atom that indicates the type
the selection is desired in.
The property
member can be a property name or None.
The time
member is set to the timestamp or CurrentTime
value from the ConvertSelection request.
