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
