Function

Gdkselection_property_get

Declaration [src]

gint
gdk_selection_property_get (
  GdkWindow* requestor,
  guchar** data,
  GdkAtom* prop_type,
  gint* prop_format
)

Description [src]

Retrieves selection data that was stored by the selection data in response to a call to gdk_selection_convert(). This function will not be used by applications, who should use the GtkClipboard API instead.

Parameters

`requestor`	`GdkWindow`
	The window on which the data is stored.
	The data is owned by the caller of the function.
`data`	`guchar**`
	Location to store a pointer to the retrieved data. If the retrieval failed, `NULL` we be stored here, otherwise, it will be non-`NULL` and the returned data should be freed with `g_free()` when you are finished using it. The length of the allocated memory is one more than the length of the returned data, and the final byte will always be zero, to ensure nul-termination of strings.
	The data is owned by the caller of the function.
`prop_type`	`GdkAtom`
	Location to store the type of the property.
	The data is owned by the caller of the function.
`prop_format`	`gint*`
	Location to store the format of the property.
	The data is owned by the caller of the function.

Return value

Returns:	`gint`
	The length of the retrieved data.
