<title>Event Management</title>
<para>
While Xlib allows the reading and processing of events anywhere in an application,
widgets in the X Toolkit neither directly read events
nor grab the server or pointer.
Widgets register procedures that are to be called
when an event or class of events occurs in that widget.
</para>

<para>
A typical application consists of startup code followed by an event loop
that reads events and dispatches them by calling
the procedures that widgets have registered.
The default event loop provided by the Intrinsics is
<xref linkend='XtAppMainLoop' xrefstyle='select: title'/>.
</para>

<para>
The event manager is a collection of functions to perform the following tasks:
</para>
<itemizedlist spacing='compact'>

timer interrupts, file input, or POSIX signals).

</itemizedlist>
<para>
Most widgets do not need to call any of the event handler functions explicitly.
The normal interface to X events is through the higher-level
translation manager,
which maps sequences of X events, with modifiers, into procedure calls.
Applications rarely use any of the event manager routines besides
<xref linkend='XtAppMainLoop' xrefstyle='select: title'/>.
</para>
<sect1 id="Adding_and_Deleting_Additional_Event_Sources">
<title>Adding and Deleting Additional Event Sources</title>
<para>
While most applications are driven only by X events,
some applications need to incorporate other sources of input
into the Intrinsics event-handling mechanism.
The event manager provides routines to integrate notification of timer events
and file data pending into this mechanism.
</para>

<para>
The next section describes functions that provide input gathering from files.
The application registers the files with the Intrinsics read routine.
When input is pending on one of the files,
the registered callback procedures are invoked.

<para>
On a POSIX-based system,
<xref linkend='XtNoticeSignal' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
is the only Intrinsics function that can safely be called from a signal handler.
If
<xref linkend='XtNoticeSignal' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
is invoked multiple times before the Intrinsics are able to invoke the
registered callback, the callback is only called once.
Logically, the Intrinsics maintain ``pending'' flag for each registered callback.
This flag is initially
<function>False</function>
and is set to
<function>True</function>
by
<xref linkend='XtNoticeSignal' xrefstyle='select: title'/>.
When
<xref linkend='XtAppNextEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
or
<xref linkend='XtAppProcessEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
(with a mask including
<function>XtIMSignal</function>)
is called, all registered callbacks with ``pending''
<function>True</function>
are invoked and the flags are reset to
<function>False</function>.
</para>

<para>
If the signal handler wants to track how many times the signal has been
raised, it can keep its own private counter.  Typically the handler would
not do any other work; the callback does the actual processing for the
signal. The Intrinsics never block signals from being raised, so if a given
signal can be raised multiple times before the Intrinsics can invoke the
callback for that signal, the callback must be designed to deal with
this.  In another case, a signal might be raised just after the Intrinsics
sets the pending flag to
<function>False</function>
but before the callback can get control, in which case the pending flag
will still be
<function>True</function>
after the callback returns, and the Intrinsics will invoke the callback
again, even though all of the signal raises have been handled.  The
callback must also be prepared to handle this case.

To remove a registered signal callback, call
<xref linkend='XtRemoveSignal' xrefstyle='select: title'/>.

The client should typically disable the source of the signal before calling

If the signal could have been raised again before the source was disabled
and the client wants to process it, then after disabling the source but
before calling
<xref linkend='XtRemoveSignal' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
the client can test for signals with
<xref linkend='XtAppPending' xrefstyle='select: title'/>

<title>Constraining Events to a Cascade of Widgets</title>
<para>
Modal widgets are widgets that, except for the input directed to them,
lock out user input to the application.
</para>

<para>
When a modal menu or modal dialog box is popped up using
<xref linkend='XtPopup' xrefstyle='select: title'/>,
user events (keyboard and pointer events) that occur outside the modal
widget should be delivered to the modal widget or ignored.
In no case will user events be delivered to a widget outside
the modal widget.
</para>

<para>
Menus can pop up submenus, and dialog boxes can pop up further dialog
boxes to create a pop-up cascade.
In this case,
user events may be delivered to one of several modal widgets in the cascade.
</para>

<para>
Display-related events should be delivered outside the modal cascade so that
exposure events and the like keep the application's display up-to-date.
Any event that occurs within the cascade is delivered as usual.
The user events delivered to the most recent spring-loaded shell
in the cascade when they occur outside the cascade are called remap events
and are
<function>KeyPress</function>,
<function>KeyRelease</function>,
<function>ButtonPress</function>,
and
<function>ButtonRelease</function>.
The user events ignored when they occur outside the cascade are
<function>MotionNotify</function>
and
<function>EnterNotify</function>.
All other events are delivered normally.
In particular, note that this is one
way in which widgets can receive
<function>LeaveNotify</function>
events without first receiving
<function>EnterNotify</function>
events; they should be prepared to deal with
this, typically by ignoring any unmatched
<function>LeaveNotify</function>
events.
</para>

<para>
<xref linkend='XtPopup' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
uses the
<xref linkend='XtAddGrab' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
and
<xref linkend='XtRemoveGrab' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
functions to constrain user events to a modal cascade
and subsequently to remove a grab when the modal widget is popped down.
</para>

<para>
To constrain or redirect user input to a modal widget, use
<xref linkend='XtAddGrab' xrefstyle='select: title'/>.

<para>
The
<xref linkend='XtAddGrab' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
function appends the widget to the modal cascade
and checks that <emphasis remap='I'>exclusive</emphasis> is
<function>True</function>
if <emphasis remap='I'>spring_loaded</emphasis> is
<function>True</function>.
If this condition is not met,
<xref linkend='XtAddGrab' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
generates a warning message.
</para>

<para>
The modal cascade is used by
<xref linkend='XtDispatchEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
when it tries to dispatch a user event.
When at least one modal widget is in the widget cascade,
<xref linkend='XtDispatchEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
first determines if the event should be delivered.
It starts at the most recent cascade entry and follows the cascade up to and
including the most recent cascade entry added with the <emphasis remap='I'>exclusive</emphasis> parameter
<function>True</function>.
</para>

<para>
This subset of the modal cascade along with all descendants of these widgets
comprise the active subset.
User events that occur outside the widgets in this subset are ignored
or remapped.
Modal menus with submenus generally add a submenu widget to the cascade
with <emphasis remap='I'>exclusive</emphasis>
<function>False</function>.
Modal dialog boxes that need to restrict user input to the most deeply nested
dialog box add a subdialog widget to the cascade with <emphasis remap='I'>exclusive</emphasis>
<function>True</function>.
User events that occur within the active subset are delivered to the
appropriate widget, which is usually a child or further descendant of the modal
widget.
</para>

<para>
Regardless of where in the application they occur,
remap events are always delivered to the most recent widget in the active
subset of the cascade registered with <emphasis remap='I'>spring_loaded</emphasis>
<function>True</function>,
if any such widget exists.
If the event
occurred in the active subset of the cascade but outside the
spring-loaded widget, it is delivered normally before being
delivered also to the spring-loaded widget.
Regardless of where it is dispatched, the Intrinsics do not modify
the contents of the event.

The Intrinsics provide a set of key and button grab interfaces that
are parallel to those provided by Xlib and that allow the Intrinsics
to modify event dispatching when necessary.  X Toolkit applications and

Widgets that need the input focus can call
<function>XSetInputFocus</function>
explicitly, pursuant to the restrictions of the <emphasis remap='I'>Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual.</emphasis>.
To allow outside agents, such as the parent,
to cause a widget to take the input focus,
every widget exports an accept_focus procedure.
The widget returns a value indicating
whether it actually took the focus or not,
so that the parent can give the focus to another widget.
Widgets that need to know when they lose the input focus must use
the Xlib focus notification mechanism explicitly
(typically by specifying translations for
<function>FocusIn</function>
and
<function>FocusOut</function>
events).
Widgets classes that never want the input focus should set the
<emphasis remap='I'>accept_focus</emphasis> field to NULL.

The

This constitutes the main loop of X Toolkit applications.
There is nothing special about

it simply calls
<xref linkend='XtAppNextEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
and then
<xref linkend='XtDispatchEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
in a conditional loop.

<title>Setting and Checking the Sensitivity State of a Widget</title>
<para>
Many widgets have a mode in which they assume a different appearance
(for example, are grayed out or stippled), do not respond to user events,
and become dormant.
</para>

<para>
When dormant,
a widget is considered to be insensitive.
If a widget is insensitive,
the event manager does not dispatch any events to the widget
with an event type of
<function>KeyPress</function>,
<function>KeyRelease</function>,
<function>ButtonPress</function>,
<function>ButtonRelease</function>,
<function>MotionNotify</function>,
<function>EnterNotify</function>,
<function>LeaveNotify</function>,
<function>FocusIn</function>,
or
<function>FocusOut</function>.
</para>

<para>
A widget can be insensitive because its <emphasis remap='I'>sensitive</emphasis> field is
<function>False</function>
or because one of its ancestors is insensitive and thus the widget's
<emphasis remap='I'>ancestor_sensitive</emphasis> field also is
<function>False</function>.
A widget can but does not need to distinguish these two cases visually.
</para>

<note>
<para>
Pop-up shells will have
<emphasis remap='I'>ancestor_sensitive</emphasis>
<function>False</function>
if the parent was insensitive when the shell
was created.  Since
<xref linkend='XtSetSensitive' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
on the parent will not
modify the resource of the pop-up child, clients are advised to include
a resource specification of the form
``*TransientShell.ancestorSensitive: True''

otherwise ensure that the parent is
sensitive when creating pop-up shells.

The event manager provides filters that can be applied to

pointer motion compression,

exposure compression.
</para>
<sect2 id="Pointer_Motion_Compression">

Widgets can have a hard time keeping up with a rapid stream of

they usually do not care about every motion event.  To throw out
redundant motion events, the widget class field <emphasis remap='I'>compress_motion</emphasis> should be
<function>True</function>.
When a request for an event would return a motion event,
the Intrinsics check if there are any other motion events
for the same widget immediately
following the current one and, if so, skip all but the last of them.

the widget class field <emphasis remap='I'>compress_enterleave</emphasis> should be
<function>True</function>.
These enter and leave events are not delivered to the client
if they are found together in the input queue.
</para>
</sect2>

<sect2 id="Exposure_Compression">
<title>Exposure Compression</title>
<para>
Many widgets prefer to process a series of exposure events as a
single expose region rather than as individual rectangles.  Widgets
with complex displays might use the expose region as a clip list
in a graphics context, and widgets with simple displays might
ignore the region entirely and redisplay their whole window or
might get the bounding box from the region and redisplay only that
rectangle.
</para>

<para>
In either case, these widgets do not care about getting partial exposure events.
The <emphasis remap='I'>compress_exposure</emphasis> field in the widget class
structure specifies the type and number of exposure events that are
dispatched to the widget's expose procedure.  This field must be
initialized to one of the following values:
</para>

<literallayout >
#define XtExposeNoCompress	((XtEnum)False)
#define XtExposeCompressSeries	((XtEnum)True)
#define XtExposeCompressMultiple	&lt;implementation-defined&gt;
#define XtExposeCompressMaximal	&lt;implementation-defined&gt;

implementation-defined values):
<function>XtExposeGraphicsExpose</function>,
<function>XtExposeGraphicsExposeMerged</function>,
<function>XtExposeNoExpose</function>,
and
<function>XtExposeNoRegion</function>.
</para>

<para>
If the <emphasis remap='I'>compress_exposure</emphasis> field in the widget class structure does not
specify
<function>XtExposeNoCompress</function>,
the event manager calls the widget's expose procedure only
once for a series of exposure events.
In this case, all
<function>Expose</function>
or
<function>GraphicsExpose</function>
events are accumulated into a region.
When the final event is received,
the event manager replaces the rectangle in the event with the
bounding box for the region
and calls the widget's expose procedure,
passing the modified exposure event and (unless
<function>XtExposeNoRegion</function>
is specified) the region.

<para>
The redisplay of a widget upon exposure is the responsibility of the
expose procedure in the widget's class record.
If a widget has no display semantics,
it can specify NULL for the <emphasis remap='I'>expose</emphasis> field.
Many composite widgets serve only as containers for their children
and have no expose procedure.
</para>

<note>
<para>
If the <emphasis remap='I'>expose</emphasis> procedure is NULL,

</para>
</note>

<para>
If the widget's <emphasis remap='I'>compress_exposure</emphasis> class field specifies
<function>XtExposeNoCompress</function>
or
<function>XtExposeNoRegion</function>,
or if the event type is

(see <xref linkend='Exposure_Compression' />),
<emphasis remap='I'>region</emphasis> is NULL.  If
<function>XtExposeNoCompress</function>
is not specified and the event type is not
<function>NoExpose</function>,
the event is the final event in the compressed series
but <emphasis remap='I'>x</emphasis>, <emphasis remap='I'>y</emphasis>, <emphasis remap='I'>width</emphasis>, and <emphasis remap='I'>height</emphasis> contain
the bounding box for all the compressed events.
The region is created and destroyed by the Intrinsics, but
the widget is permitted to modify the region contents.
</para>

<para>
A small simple widget (for example, Label) can ignore the bounding box
information in the event and redisplay the entire window.
A more complicated widget (for example, Text) can use the bounding box
information to minimize the amount of calculation and redisplay it does.
A very complex widget uses the region as a clip list in a GC and
ignores the event information.
The expose procedure is not chained and is therefore
responsible for exposure of all superclass data
as well as its own.
</para>

<para>
However,
it often is possible to anticipate the display needs of several levels
of subclassing.
For example, rather than implement separate display procedures for
the widgets Label, Pushbutton, and Toggle,
you could write a single display routine in Label that uses display state
fields like
</para>
<literallayout >
Boolean invert;
Boolean highlight;
Dimension highlight_width;
</literallayout>
<para>
Label would have <emphasis remap='I'>invert</emphasis> and <emphasis remap='I'>highlight</emphasis> always
<function>False</function>
and <emphasis remap='I'>highlight_width</emphasis> zero.
Pushbutton would dynamically set <emphasis remap='I'>highlight</emphasis> and <emphasis remap='I'>highlight_width</emphasis>,
but it would leave <emphasis remap='I'>invert</emphasis> always
<function>False</function>.
Finally, Toggle would dynamically set all three.
In this case,
the expose procedures for Pushbutton and Toggle inherit
their superclass's expose procedure;

occur in a widget.
Most widgets need not use event handlers explicitly.
Instead, they use the Intrinsics translation manager.
Event handler procedure pointers are of the type
<xref linkend='XtEventHandler' xrefstyle='select: title'/>.

<para>
After receiving an event and before calling any event handlers, the
Boolean pointed to by <emphasis remap='I'>continue_to_dispatch</emphasis> is initialized to
<function>True</function>.
When an event handler is called, it may decide that further processing
of the event is not desirable and may store
<function>False</function>
in this Boolean, in
which case any handlers remaining to be called for the event are
ignored.
</para>

<para>
The circumstances under which the Intrinsics may add event handlers
to a widget are currently implementation-dependent.  Clients must
therefore be aware that storing
<function>False</function>
into the <emphasis remap='I'>continue_to_dispatch</emphasis> argument can lead to portability problems.

<para>
The
<xref linkend='XtAddEventHandler' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
function registers a procedure with the dispatch mechanism that is
to be called when an event that matches the mask occurs on the specified
widget.
Each widget has a single registered event handler list, which will
contain any procedure/client_data pair exactly once regardless of
the manner in which it is registered.
If the procedure is already registered with the same <emphasis remap='I'>client_data</emphasis>
value,
the specified mask augments the existing mask.
If the widget is realized,
<xref linkend='XtAddEventHandler' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
calls
<function>XSelectInput</function>,
if necessary.
The order in which this procedure is called relative to other handlers
registered for the same event is not defined.
</para>

<para>
To remove a previously registered event handler, use
<xref linkend='XtRemoveEventHandler' xrefstyle='select: title'/>.

<para>
<xref linkend='XtInsertEventTypeHandler' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
registers a procedure with the
dispatch mechanism that is to be called when an event that matches the
specified <emphasis remap='I'>event_type</emphasis> is dispatched to the specified <emphasis remap='I'>widget</emphasis>.
</para>

<para>
If <emphasis remap='I'>event_type</emphasis> specifies one of the core X protocol events, then
<emphasis remap='I'>select_data</emphasis> must be a pointer to a value of type
<function>EventMask</function>,
indicating
the event mask to be used to select for the desired event.  This event
mask is included in the value returned by
<xref linkend='XtBuildEventMask' xrefstyle='select: title'/>.
If the widget is realized,
<xref linkend='XtInsertEventTypeHandler' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
calls
<function>XSelectInput</function>
if necessary.  Specifying NULL for <emphasis remap='I'>select_data</emphasis> is equivalent to
specifying a pointer to an event mask containing 0.  This is similar
to the
<xref linkend='XtInsertRawEventHandler' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
function.
</para>

<para>
If <emphasis remap='I'>event_type</emphasis> specifies an extension event type, then the semantics of
the data pointed to by <emphasis remap='I'>select_data</emphasis> are defined by the extension
selector registered for the specified event type.
</para>

<para>
In either case the Intrinsics are not required to copy the data
pointed to by <emphasis remap='I'>select_data</emphasis>, so the caller must ensure that it remains
valid as long as the event handler remains registered with this value
of <emphasis remap='I'>select_data</emphasis>.
</para>

<para>
The <emphasis remap='I'>position</emphasis> argument allows the client to control the order of
invocation of event handlers registered for the same event type.  If
the client does not care about the order, it should normally specify
<function>XtListTail</function>,
which registers this event handler after any previously
registered handlers for this event type.
</para>

<para>
Each widget has a single registered event handler list, which will
contain any procedure/client_data pair exactly once if it is
registered with
<xref linkend='XtInsertEventTypeHandler' xrefstyle='select: title'/>,
regardless of the manner
in which it is registered and regardless of the value(s)
of <emphasis remap='I'>select_data</emphasis>.  If the procedure is already registered with the
same <emphasis remap='I'>client_data</emphasis> value, the specified mask augments the existing
mask and the procedure is repositioned in the list.
</para>

the Intrinsics check to see if any event

</para>
</sect2>

<sect2 id="Locking_tk_Data_Structures">
<title>Locking X Toolkit Data Structures</title>
<para>
The Intrinsics employs two levels of locking: application context and
process.  Locking an application context ensures mutually exclusive
access by a thread to the state associated with the application context,
including all displays and widgets associated with it.  Locking a
process ensures mutually exclusive access by a thread to Intrinsics process
global data.
</para>

<para>
A client may acquire a lock multiple times and the effect is cumulative.
The client must ensure that the lock is released an equal number of times in
order for the lock to be acquired by another thread.
</para>

<para>
Most application writers will have little need to use locking as the
Intrinsics performs the necessary locking internally.
Resource converters are an exception.
They require the application context or process to be locked
before the application can safely call them directly, for example:
</para>
<literallayout >
	...
	XtAppLock(app_context);
	XtCvtStringToPixel(dpy, args, num_args, fromVal, toVal, closure_ret);
	XtAppUnlock(app_context);
	...
</literallayout>
<para>
When the application relies upon
<xref linkend='XtConvertAndStore' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
or a converter to provide the storage for the results of a
conversion, the application should acquire the process lock before
calling out and hold the lock until the results have been copied.
</para>

<para>
Application writers who write their own
utility functions, such as one which retrieves the being_destroyed field from
a widget instance, must lock the application context before accessing
widget internal data.  For example:
</para>
<literallayout >
#include &lt;X11/CoreP.h&gt;
Boolean BeingDestroyed (widget)
	Widget widget;
{
	Boolean ret;
	XtAppLock(XtWidgetToApplicationContext(widget));
	ret = widget-&gt;core.being_destroyed;
	XtAppUnlock(XtWidgetToApplicationContext(widget));
	return ret;
}
</literallayout>
<para>
A client that wishes to atomically call two or more Intrinsics functions
must lock the application context.  For example:
</para>
<literallayout >

makes Xlib calls from within Xt.  An application that makes its own
direct Xlib calls must either lock the application context around every
call or enable thread locking in Xlib.

To release both locks, call

first and then
<xref linkend='XtAppUnlock' xrefstyle='select: title'/>.
The order is important to avoid deadlock.

<title>Event Management in a Multi-Threaded Environment</title>
<para>
In a nonthreaded environment an application writer could reasonably
assume that it is safe to exit the application from a quit callback.
This assumption may no longer hold true in a multi-threaded environment;
therefore it is desirable to provide a mechanism to terminate an
event-processing loop without necessarily terminating its thread.
</para>

<para>
To indicate that the event loop should terminate after the current
event dispatch has completed, use
<xref linkend='XtAppSetExitFlag' xrefstyle='select: title'/>.

may continue.  When
<xref linkend='XtAppGetExitFlag' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
returns <function>True</function>, the loop must terminate and return to the caller,
which might then destroy the application context.
</para>

<para>
Application writers should be aware that, if a thread is blocked in
<xref linkend='XtAppNextEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>,
<xref linkend='XtAppPeekEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>,
or
<xref linkend='XtAppProcessEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>
and another thread in the same application context opens a new display,
adds an alternate input, or a timeout, any new source(s) will not
normally be "noticed" by the blocked thread.  Any new sources are
"noticed" the next time one of these functions is called.
</para>

<para>
The Intrinsics manage access to events on a last-in, first-out basis.  If
multiple threads in the same application context block in
<xref linkend='XtAppNextEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>,
<xref linkend='XtAppPeekEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>,
or
<xref linkend='XtAppProcessEvent' xrefstyle='select: title'/>,
the last thread to call one of these functions is the first
thread to return.
