     X Version 11 (Release 5)             XSelectionRequestEvent(3X11)



     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 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 timestamp or CurrentTime value
          from the ConvertSelection request.
