XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(3)                     XT FUNCTIONS                     XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(3)



NAME
       XtAppGetSelectionTimeout, XtAppSetSelectionTimeout - set and obtain selection timeout values

SYNTAX
       unsigned long XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(XtAppContext app_context);

       void XtAppSetSelectionTimeout(XtAppContext app_context, unsigned long timeout);

ARGUMENTS
       app_context
                 Specifies the application context.

       timeout   Specifies the selection timeout in milliseconds.

DESCRIPTION
       The XtAppGetSelectionTimeout function returns the current selection timeout value, in milliseconds.
       The selection timeout is the time within which the two communicating applications must respond to one
       another.  The initial timeout value is set by the selectionTimeout application resource, or, if
       selectionTimeout is not specified, it defaults to five seconds.

       The XtAppSetSelectionTimeout function sets the Intrinsics's selection timeout mechanism.  Note that
       most applications should not set the selection timeout.
