XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(3Xt)	XT FUNCTIONS	XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(3Xt)



NAME
  XtAppGetSelectionTimeout, XtAppSetSelectionTimeout - set and obtain selec-
  tion timeout values

SYNTAX
  unsigned long XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(app_context)
       XtAppContext app_context;

  void XtAppSetSelectionTimeout(app_context, timeout)
      XtAppContext app_context;
      unsigned long timeout;

ARGUMENTS

  app_context
	    Specifies the application context.

  timeout   Specifies the selection timeout in milliseconds.

DESCRIPTION
  The XtAppGetSelectionTimeout function returns the current selection timeout
  value, in milliseconds.  The selection timeout is the time within which the
  two communicating applications must respond to one another.  The initial
  timeout value is set by the selectionTimeout application resource, or, if
  selectionTimeout is not specified, it defaults to five seconds.

  The XtAppSetSelectionTimeout function sets the Intrinsics's selection
  timeout mechanism.  Note that most applications should not set the selec-
  tion timeout.
