NAME

       XtAppGetSelectionTimeout, XtAppSetSelectionTimeout - set and obtain
       selection timeout values

SYNTAX

       unsigned long XtAppGetSelectionTimeout(XtAppContext app_context);

       void XtAppSetSelectionTimeout(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
       selection timeout.
