A selection is a essentially * a named clipboard, identified by a string interned as a #GdkAtom. By * claiming ownership of a selection, an application indicates that it will * be responsible for supplying its contents. The most common selections are * PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD. * * The contents of a selection can be represented in a number of formats, * called targets. Each target is identified by an atom. * A list of all possible targets supported by the selection owner can be * retrieved by requesting the special target TARGETS. When * a selection is retrieved, the data is accompanied by a type (an atom), and * a format (an integer, representing the number of bits per item). * See Properties and Atoms * for more information. * * The functions in this section only contain the lowlevel parts of the * selection protocol. A considerably more complicated implementation is needed * on top of this. GTK+ contains such an implementation in the functions in * gtkselection.h and programmers should use those functions * instead of the ones presented here. If you plan to implement selection * handling directly on top of the functions here, you should refer to the * X Inter-client Communication Conventions Manual (ICCCM). */ /** * gdk_selection_owner_set: * @owner: a #GdkWindow or %NULL to indicate that the * the owner for the given should be unset. * @selection: an atom identifying a selection. * @time_: timestamp to use when setting the selection. * If this is older than the timestamp given last * time the owner was set for the given selection, the * request will be ignored. * @send_event: if %TRUE, and the new owner is different * from the current owner, the current owner * will be sent a SelectionClear event. * * Sets the owner of the given selection. * * Returns: %TRUE if the selection owner was successfully * changed to @owner, otherwise %FALSE. */ gboolean gdk_selection_owner_set (GdkWindow *owner, GdkAtom selection, guint32 time, gboolean send_event) { return gdk_selection_owner_set_for_display (gdk_display_get_default (), owner, selection, time, send_event); } /** * gdk_selection_owner_get: * @selection: an atom indentifying a selection. * * Determines the owner of the given selection. * * Returns: if there is a selection owner for this window, * and it is a window known to the current process, * the #GdkWindow that owns the selection, otherwise * %NULL.
