NAME
XmActivateProtocol — A VendorShell function that activates a protocol
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Protocols.h>
void XmActivateProtocol(
Widget shell,
Atom property,
Atom protocol);
DESCRIPTION
XmActivateProtocol activates a protocol. 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. This is supported by allowing a protocol to be in one of
two states: active or inactive. If the protocol is active and the shell
is realized, the property contains the protocol Atom. If the protocol
is inactive, the Atom is not present in the property.
XmActivateWMProtocol is a convenience interface. It calls
XmActivateProtocol 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
