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


NAME
      XPropertyEvent - PropertyNotify event structure

STRUCTURES
      The structure for PropertyNotify events contains:

      typedef struct {
           int type;                /* PropertyNotify */
           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 window;
           Atom atom;
           Time time;
           int state;               /* PropertyNewValue or PropertyDelete */
      } XPropertyEvent;

      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 window member is set to the window whose associated property was
      changed.  The atom member is set to the property's atom and indicates
      which property was changed or desired.  The time member is set to the
      server time when the property was changed.  The state member is set to
      indicate whether the property was changed to a new value or deleted and
      can be PropertyNewValue or PropertyDelete.  The state member is set to
      PropertyNewValue when a property of the window is changed using
      XChangeProperty or XRotateWindowProperties (even when adding zero-length
      data using XChangeProperty) and when replacing all or part of a property
      with identical data using XChangeProperty or XRotateWindowProperties.
      The state member is set to PropertyDelete when a property of the window
      is deleted using XDeleteProperty or, if the delete argument is True,
      XGetWindowProperty.
