NAME
XSelectionRequestEvent - SelectionRequest event structure
STRUCTURES
The structure for SelectionRequest events contains:
typedef struct {
int type; /* SelectionRequest */
unsigned long serial; /* # of last request processed by server */
Bool send_event; /* true if this came from a SendEvent request */
Display *display; /* Display the event was read from */
Window owner;
Window requestor;
Atom selection;
Atom target;
Atom property;
Time time;
} XSelectionRequestEvent;
When you receive this event, the structure members are set
as follows.
The type member is set to the event type constant name that
uniquely identifies it. For example, when the X server
reports a GraphicsExpose event to a client application, it
sends an XGraphicsExposeEvent structure with the type member
set to GraphicsExpose. The display member is set to a
pointer to the display the event was read on. The
send_event member is set to True if the event came from a
SendEvent protocol request. The serial member is set from
the serial number reported in the protocol but expanded from
the 16-bit least-significant bits to a full 32-bit value.
The window member is set to the window that is most useful
to toolkit dispatchers.
The owner member is set to the window owning the selection
and is the window that was specified by the current owner in
its XSetSelectionOwner call. The requestor member is set to
the window requesting the selection. The selection member
is set to the atom that names the selection. For example,

PRIMARY is used to indicate the primary selection. The
target member is set to the atom that indicates the type the
selection is desired in. The property member can be a
property name or None. The time member is set to the time
and is a timestamp or CurrentTime from the ConvertSelection
request.
