     XmClipboardEndRetrieve(Xm)                     UNIX System V



     NAME
          XmClipboardEndRetrieve - a clipboard function  that  ends  a
          copy from the clipboard.



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

          int XmClipboardEndRetrieve (display, window)
               Display   * display;
               Window    window;



     DESCRIPTION
          XmClipboardEndRetrieve suspends copying  data  incrementally
          from  the  clipboard.   It tells the clipboard routines that
          the  application  is  through  copying  an  item  from   the
          clipboard.  Until this function is called, data items can be
          retrieved  incrementally  from  the  clipboard  by   calling
          XmClipboardRetrieve.      If     the    application    calls
          XmClipboardStartRetrieve,        it        must         call
          XmClipboardEndRetrieve.    If   data  is  not  being  copied
          incrementally,         XmClipboardStartRetrieve          and
          XmClipboardEndRetrieve do not need to be 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 of the clipboard
                      functions that it calls.



     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.
