XSelectionRequestEvent - SelectionRequest event structure
The structure for SelectionRequest events contains:
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 selec-
tion. The selection member is set to the atom that names the
selection. For example, PRIMARY is used to indicate the pri-
mary 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 Convert-
Selection request.
