This wait time can be used for background processing +(see Section 7.8). +.LP +If there is an event in the queue, +.ZN XtAppPeekEvent +fills in the event and returns a nonzero value. If no X input is on the +queue, +.ZN XtAppPeekEvent +flushes the output buffer and blocks until input is available +(possibly calling some timeout callbacks in the process). +If the input is an event, +.ZN XtAppPeekEvent +fills in the event and returns a nonzero value. +Otherwise, the input is for an alternate input source, and +.ZN XtAppPeekEvent +returns zero. +.LP +The +.ZN XtAppPending +function returns a nonzero value if there are events pending from the +X server, timer pending, or other input sources pending. The value +returned is a bit mask that is the OR of +.ZN XtIMXEvent , +.ZN XtIMTimer , +.ZN XtIMAlternateInput , +and +.ZN XtIMSignal +(see +.ZN XtAppProcessEvent ). +If there are no events pending, +.ZN XtAppPending +flushes the output buffer and returns zero. +.LP +The +.ZN XtAppProcessEvent +function processes one timer, alternate input, signal source, or X +event. If there is nothing of the appropriate type to process, +.ZN XtAppProcessEvent +blocks until there is. +If there is more than one type of thing available to process, +it is undefined which will get processed. +Usually, this procedure is not called by client applications (see +.ZN XtAppMainLoop ). +.ZN XtAppProcessEvent +processes timer events by calling any appropriate timer callbacks, +alternate input by calling any appropriate alternate input callbacks, +signal source by calling any appropriate signal callbacks, and X events +by calling +.ZN XtDispatchEvent . +.LP +When an X event is received, it is passed to +.ZN XtDispatchEvent , +which calls the appropriate event handlers +and passes them the widget, the event, and client-specific data +registered with each procedure. +If there are no handlers for that event registered, +the event is ignored and the dispatcher simply returns. +The order in which the handlers are called is undefined. +.LP +The +.ZN XtDispatchEvent +function sends those events to the event handler functions that +have been previously registered with the dispatch routine. +.ZN XtDispatchEvent +returns +.ZN True +if it dispatched the event to some handler and +.ZN False +if it found no handler to dispatch the event to. +The most common use of +.ZN XtDispatchEvent +is to dispatch events acquired with the +.ZN XtAppNextEvent +procedure. +However, it also can be used to dispatch user-constructed events. +.ZN XtDispatchEvent +also is responsible for implementing the grab semantics for +.ZN XtAddGrab . +.LP +The +.ZN XtAppMainLoop +function first reads the next incoming X event by calling +.ZN XtAppNextEvent +and then it dispatches the event to the appropriate registered procedure +by calling +.ZN XtDispatchEvent . +This constitutes the main loop of \*(tk applications, +and, as such, it does not return unless +.ZN XtAppSetExitFlag +is called. +Applications are expected to exit in response to some user action. +There is nothing special about +.ZN XtAppMainLoop ; +it is simply an loop that calls +.ZN XtAppNextEvent +and then +.ZN XtDispatchEvent , +until +.ZN XtAppGetExitFlag () +returns true. +.LP +Applications can provide their own version of this loop, +which tests some global termination flag or tests that the number +of top-level widgets is larger than zero before circling back to the call to +.ZN XtAppNextEvent . +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.br +\fI\*(xT\fP +.br +\fI\*(xL\fP |
