- .SH NAME
- Tk_RestrictEvents \- filter and selectively delay X events
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .nf
- \fB#include <tk.h>\fR
- .sp
- Tk_RestrictProc *
- \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR(\fIproc, arg, prevArgPtr\fR)
- .SH ARGUMENTS
- .AS Tk_RestrictProc **prevArgPtr
- .AP Tk_RestrictProc *proc in
- Predicate procedure to call to filter incoming X events.
- NULL means do not restrict events at all.
- .AP char *arg in
- Arbitrary argument to pass to \fIproc\fR.
- .AP char **prevArgPtr in/out
- Pointer to place to save argument to previous restrict procedure.
- .BE
-
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .PP
- This procedure is useful in certain situations where applications
- are only prepared to receive certain X events. After
- \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR is called, \fBTk_DoOneEvent\fR (and
- hence \fBTk_MainLoop\fR) will filter X input events through
- \fIproc\fR. \fIProc\fR indicates whether a
- given event is to be processed immediately or deferred until some
- later time (e.g. when the event restriction is lifted). \fIProc\fR
- is a standard X predicate procedure, of the sort passed to
- \fBXCheckIfEvent\fR. It must have arguments and result that match
- the type \fBTk_RestrictProc\fR:
- .nf
- .RS
- typedef Bool Tk_RestrictProc(
- .RS
- Display *\fIdisplay\fR,
- XEvent *\fIeventPtr\fR,
- char *\fIarg\fR);
- .RE
- .RE
- .fi
- The \fIdisplay\fR argument to \fIproc\fR is the display from which
- \fIeventPtr\fR was received, and \fIeventPtr\fR points to an event
- under consideration. The \fIarg\fR argument is a copy of the \fIarg\fR
- passed to \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR; it may be used to provide
- \fIproc\fR with information it needs to filter events. \fIProc\fR
- must return \fBTrue\fR or \fBFalse\fR. \fBTrue\fR means the event
- should be processed immediately and \fBFalse\fR means the event
- should not be processed now, but should be saved for some later
- time.
- .PP
- \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR uses its return value and \fIprevArgPtr\fR
- to return information about the current event restriction procedure
- (a NULL return value means there are currently no restrictions).
- These values may be used to restore the previous restriction state
- when there is no longer any need for the current restriction.
- .PP
- There are very few places where \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR is needed.
- Please use it only where it is absolutely necessary.
- If only a local restriction is needed, it can probably
- be achieved more cleanly by changing event-to-Tcl bindings or by
- calling \fBTk_DeleteEventHandler\fR.
