XmClipboardEndCopy(3X)           UNIX System V           XmClipboardEndCopy(3X)


NAME
      XmClipboardEndCopy - A clipboard function that ends a copy to the
      clipboard.


SYNOPSIS
      #include <Xm/Xm.h>
      #include <Xm/CutPaste.h>

      int XmClipboardEndCopy (display, window, item_id)
           Display   * display;
           Window    window;
           long      item_id;


DESCRIPTION
      XmClipboardEndCopy locks the clipboard from access by other applications,
      places data in the clipboard data structure, and unlocks the clipboard.
      Data items copied to the clipboard by XmClipboardCopy are not actually
      entered in the clipboard data structure until the call to
      XmClipboardEndCopy.

      This function also frees up temporary storage that was allocated by
      XmClipboardStartCopy, which must be called before XmClipboardEndCopy.
      The latter function should not be called if XmClipboardCancelCopy has
      been called.


      display     Specifies a pointer to the Display structure that was
                  returned in a previous call to XOpenDisplay or XtDisplay.

      window      Specifies a widget's window ID that relates the application
                  window to the clipboard.  The widget's window ID can be
                  obtained by using XtWindow.  The same application instance
                  should pass the same window ID to each clipboard function it
                  calls.

      item_id     Specifies the number assigned to this data item.  This number
                  was returned by a previous call to XmClipboardStartCopy.


RETURN VALUE
      ClipboardSuccess
                  The function is successful.

      ClipboardLocked
                  The function failed because the clipboard was locked by
                  another application.  The application can continue to call
                  the function again with the same parameters until the lock
                  goes away.  This gives the application the opportunity to ask
                  if the user wants to keep trying or to give up on the
                  operation.

                  called.
