XtAppGetSelectionTimeout, XtAppSetSelectionTimeout- set and obtain selection timeout values

From the original Amiga UNIX 2.1 manual. Some things it mentions may not be in this release.

NAME

XtAppGetSelectionTimeout, XtAppSetSelectionTimeout- set and obtain selection timeout values

SYNTAX

unsigned long XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(app_context)
     XtAppContext app_context;

void XtAppSetSelectionTimeout(app_context, timeout)
    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.
