| '\" The definitions below are for supplemental macros used in Tcl/Tk |
| '\" manual entries. |
| '\" |
| '\" .AP type name in/out ?indent? |
| '\" Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure. |
| '\" type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out", |
| '\" or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg, |
| '\" and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be |
| '\" needed; use .AS below instead) |
| '\" |
| '\" .AS ?type? ?name? |
| '\" Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops. Type and |
| '\" name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed |
| '\" to .AP later. If args are omitted, default tab stops are used. |
| '\" |
| '\" .BS |
| '\" Start box enclosure. From here until next .BE, everything will be |
| '\" enclosed in one large box. |
| '\" |
| '\" .BE |
| '\" End of box enclosure. |
| '\" |
| '\" .CS |
| '\" Begin code excerpt. |
| '\" |
| '\" .CE |
| '\" End code excerpt. |
| '\" |
| '\" .VS ?version? ?br? |
| '\" Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts |
| '\" of man pages. The first argument is ignored and used for recording |
| '\" the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be |
| '\" found and removed when they reach a certain age. If another argument |
| '\" is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar. |
| '\" |
| '\" .VE |
| '\" End of vertical sidebar. |
| '\" |
| '\" .DS |
| '\" Begin an indented unfilled display. |
| '\" |
| '\" .DE |
| '\" End of indented unfilled display. |
| '\" |
| '\" .SO |
| '\" Start of list of standard options for a Tk widget. The |
| '\" options follow on successive lines, in four columns separated |
| '\" by tabs. |
| '\" |
| '\" .SE |
| '\" End of list of standard options for a Tk widget. |
| '\" |
| '\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass |
| '\" Start of description of a specific option. cmdName gives the |
| '\" option's name as specified in the class command, dbName gives |
| '\" the option's name in the option database, and dbClass gives |
| '\" the option's class in the option database. |
| '\" |
| '\" .UL arg1 arg2 |
| '\" Print arg1 underlined, then print arg2 normally. |

| .SH NAME |
| Tk_RestrictEvents \- filter and selectively delay X events |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| .nf |
| \fB#include <tk.h>\fR |
| .sp |
| Tk_RestrictProc * |
| \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR(\fIproc, clientData, prevClientDataPtr\fR) |
| .SH ARGUMENTS |
| .AS Tk_RestrictProc **prevClientDataPtr |
| .AP Tk_RestrictProc *proc in |
| Predicate procedure to call to filter incoming X events. |
| NULL means do not restrict events at all. |
| .AP ClientData clientData in |
| Arbitrary argument to pass to \fIproc\fR. |
| .AP ClientData *prevClientDataPtr out |
| Pointer to place to save argument to previous restrict procedure. |
| .BE |
| |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .PP |
| This procedure is useful in certain situations where applications |
| are only prepared to receive certain X events. After |
| \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR is called, \fBTk_DoOneEvent\fR (and |
| hence \fBTk_MainLoop\fR) will filter X input events through |
| \fIproc\fR. \fIProc\fR indicates whether a |
| given event is to be processed immediately, deferred until some |
| later time (e.g. when the event restriction is lifted), or discarded. |
| \fIProc\fR |
| is a procedure with arguments and result that match |
| the type \fBTk_RestrictProc\fR: |
| .CS |
| typedef Tk_RestrictAction Tk_RestrictProc( |
| ClientData \fIclientData\fR, |
| XEvent *\fIeventPtr\fR); |
| .CE |
| The \fIclientData\fR argument is a copy of the \fIclientData\fR passed |
| to \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR; it may be used to provide \fIproc\fR with |
| information it needs to filter events. The \fIeventPtr\fR points to |
| an event under consideration. \fIProc\fR returns a restrict action |
| (enumerated type \fBTk_RestrictAction\fR) that indicates what |
| \fBTk_DoOneEvent\fR should do with the event. If the return value is |
| \fBTK_PROCESS_EVENT\fR, then the event will be handled immediately. |
| If the return value is \fBTK_DEFER_EVENT\fR, then the event will be |
| left on the event queue for later processing. If the return value is |
| \fBTK_DISCARD_EVENT\fR, then the event will be removed from the event |
| queue and discarded without being processed. |
| .PP |
| \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR uses its return value and \fIprevClientDataPtr\fR |
| to return information about the current event restriction procedure |
| (a NULL return value means there are currently no restrictions). |
| These values may be used to restore the previous restriction state |
| when there is no longer any need for the current restriction. |
| .PP |
| There are very few places where \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR is needed. |
| In most cases, the best way to restrict events is by changing the |
| bindings with the \fBbind\fR Tcl command or by calling |
| \fBTk_CreateEventHandler\fR and \fBTk_DeleteEventHandler\fR from C. |
| The main place where \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR must be used is when |
| performing synchronous actions (for example, if you need to wait |
| for a particular event to occur on a particular window but you don't |
| want to invoke any handlers for any other events). The ``obvious'' |
| solution in these situations is to call \fBXNextEvent\fR or |
| \fBXWindowEvent\fR, but these procedures cannot be used because |
| Tk keeps its own event queue that is separate from the X event |
| queue. Instead, call \fBTk_RestrictEvents\fR to set up a filter, |
| then call \fBTk_DoOneEvent\fR to retrieve the desired event(s). |
