NAME

XtAppSetSelectionTimeout − set the Intrinsics selection timeout value. 

Synopsis

void XtAppSetSelectionTimeout(app_context, timeout)

    XtAppContext app_context;
    unsigned long timeout;

Inputs

app_context
Specifies the application context.

timeoutSpecifies the selection timeout in milliseconds. 

Description

XtAppSetSelectionTimeout() sets the Intrinsics selection timeout value for the specified application context.  The selection timeout is the time within which two communicating applications must respond to one another.  The initial timeout value is set by the selectionTimeout application resource, which has a default value of 5000 milliseconds (5 seconds). 

Usage

The current timeout value can be retrieved by a call to XtAppGetSelectionTimeout().  You should rarely need to query or set this value.  In particular, an application generally should not change this value except under the explicit request of the user.
