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 struc-
       ture 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 XRotateWindow-
       Properties.  The state member is set to PropertyDelete when a  property
       of  the window is deleted using XDeleteProperty or, if the delete argu-
       ment is True, XGetWindowProperty.
