XSetWMProtocols(3)              XLIB FUNCTIONS              XSetWMProtocols(3)

NAME
       XSetWMProtocols,  XGetWMProtocols - set or read a window's WM_PROTOCOLS
       property

SYNTAX
       Status XSetWMProtocols(Display *display, Window w, Atom *protocols, int
              count);

       Status XGetWMProtocols(Display *display, Window w, Atom **protocols_re-
              turn, int *count_return);

ARGUMENTS
       display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

       count     Specifies the number of protocols in the list.

       count_return
                 Returns the number of protocols in the list.

       protocols Specifies the list of protocols.

       protocols_return
                 Returns the list of protocols.

DESCRIPTION
       The XSetWMProtocols function replaces the WM_PROTOCOLS property on  the
       specified  window with the list of atoms specified by the protocols ar-
       gument.  If the property does not already exist,  XSetWMProtocols  sets
       the  WM_PROTOCOLS property on the specified window to the list of atoms
       specified by the protocols argument.  The property  is  stored  with  a
       type  of ATOM and a format of 32.  If it cannot intern the WM_PROTOCOLS
       atom, XSetWMProtocols returns a zero status.  Otherwise, it  returns  a
       nonzero status.

       XSetWMProtocols can generate BadAlloc and BadWindow errors.

       The  XGetWMProtocols  function  returns the list of atoms stored in the
       WM_PROTOCOLS property on the specified window.   These  atoms  describe
       window  manager  protocols in which the owner of this window is willing
       to participate.  If the property exists, is of type ATOM, is of  format
       32, and the atom WM_PROTOCOLS can be interned, XGetWMProtocols sets the
       protocols_return argument to a list of atoms, sets the count_return ar-
       gument  to  the  number  of elements in the list, and returns a nonzero
       status.  Otherwise, it sets neither of the return arguments and returns
       a zero status.  To release the list of atoms, use XFree.

       XGetWMProtocols can generate a BadWindow error.

PROPERTIES
       WM_PROTOCOLS
                 List  of atoms that identify the communications protocols be-
                 tween the client and window manager in which  the  client  is
                 willing to participate.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadAlloc  The  server  failed  to  allocate  the  requested resource or
                 server memory.

       BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
