NAME
XmDeactivateProtocol -- A VendorShell function that deactivates a protocol without removing it
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h> #include <Xm/Protocols.h> void XmDeactivateProtocol( Widget shell, Atom property, Atom protocol);
DESCRIPTION
XmDeactivateProtocol deactivates a protocol without removing it. It
updates the handlers and the property if the shell is realized. It is
sometimes useful to allow a protocol's state information (callback
lists, and so on) to persist, even though the client may choose to temporarily resign from the interaction. The main use of this capability
is to gray/ungray f.send_msg entries in the MWM system menu. To support this capability, protocol is allowed to be in one of two states:
active or inactive. If protocol is active and shell is realized, property contains the protocol Atom. If protocol is inactive, Atom is not
present in the property.
XmDeactivateWMProtocol is a convenience interface. It calls XmDeactivateProtocol with the property value set to the atom returned by
interning WM_PROTOCOLS.
- shell Specifies the widget with which the protocol property is
- associated
- property Specifies the protocol property
- protocol Specifies the protocol atom
