NAME

Tk_SetClassProcs − register widget specific procedures

SYNOPSIS

#include <tk.h>

Tk_SetClassProcs(tkwin, procs, instanceData)

ARGUMENTS

	Tk_Window tkwin (in)		Token for window to modify.
	Tk_ClassProcs *procs (in)		Pointer to data structure containing widget specific procedures. The data structure pointed to by procs must be static: Tk keeps a reference to it as long as the window exists.
	ClientData instanceData (in)		Arbitrary one-word value to pass to widget callbacks.

______________

DESCRIPTION

Tk_SetClassProcs is called to register a set of procedures that are used as callbacks in different places.

The structure pointed to by procs contains the following:

typedef struct Tk_ClassProcs {
unsigned int size;
Tk_ClassWorldChangedProc *worldChangedProc;
Tk_ClassCreateProc *createProc;
Tk_ClassModalProc *modalProc;
} Tk_ClassProcs;

The size field is used to simplify future expansion of the structure. It should always be set to (literally) sizeof(Tk_ClassProcs).

worldChangedProc is invoked when the system has altered in some way that requires some reaction from the widget. For example, when a font alias (see the font manual entry) is reconfigured, widgets configured to use that font alias must update their display accordingly. worldChangedProc should have arguments and results that match the type Tk_ClassWorldChangedProc:

typedef void Tk_ClassWorldChangedProc(
ClientData instanceData);

The instanceData parameter passed to the worldChangedProc will be identical to the instanceData parameter passed to Tk_SetClassProcs.

createProc is used to create platform-dependant windows. It is invoked by Tk_MakeWindowExist. createProc should have arguments and results that match the type Tk_ClassCreateProc:

typedef Window Tk_ClassCreateProc(
Tk_Window tkwin,
Window parent,
ClientData instanceData);

The tkwin and instanceData parameters will be identical to the tkwin and instanceData parameters passed to Tk_SetClassProcs. The parent parameter will be the parent of the window to be created. The createProc should return the created window.

modalProc is invoked after all bindings on a widget have been triggered in order to handle a modal loop. modalProc should have arguments and results that match the type Tk_ClassModalProc:

typedef void Tk_ClassModalProc(
Tk_Window tkwin,
XEvent *eventPtr);

The tkwin parameter to modalProc will be identical to the tkwin parameter passed to Tk_SetClassProcs. The eventPtr parameter will be a pointer to an XEvent structure describing the event being processed.

Opportunity

Personal Opportunity - Free software gives you access to billions of dollars of software at no cost. Use this software for your business, personal use or to develop a profitable skill. Access to source code provides access to a level of capabilities/information that companies protect though copyrights. Open source is a core component of the Internet and it is available to you. Leverage the billions of dollars in resources and capabilities to build a career, establish a business or change the world. The potential is endless for those who understand the opportunity.

Business Opportunity - Goldman Sachs, IBM and countless large corporations are leveraging open source to reduce costs, develop products and increase their bottom lines. Learn what these companies know about open source and how open source can give you the advantage.

Free Software

Free Software provides computer programs and capabilities at no cost but more importantly, it provides the freedom to run, edit, contribute to, and share the software. The importance of free software is a matter of access, not price. Software at no cost is a benefit but ownership rights to the software and source code is far more significant.

Free Office Software - The Libre Office suite provides top desktop productivity tools for free. This includes, a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation engine, drawing and flowcharting, database and math applications. Libre Office is available for Linux or Windows.

Free Books

The Free Books Library is a collection of thousands of the most popular public domain books in an online readable format. The collection includes great classical literature and more recent works where the U.S. copyright has expired. These books are yours to read and use without restrictions.

Source Code - Want to change a program or know how it works? Open Source provides the source code for its programs so that anyone can use, modify or learn how to write those programs themselves. Visit the GNU source code repositories to download the source.

Education

Study at Harvard, Stanford or MIT - Open edX provides free online courses from Harvard, MIT, Columbia, UC Berkeley and other top Universities. Hundreds of courses for almost all major subjects and course levels. Open edx also offers some paid courses and selected certifications.

Linux Manual Pages - A man or manual page is a form of software documentation found on Linux/Unix operating systems. Topics covered include computer programs (including library and system calls), formal standards and conventions, and even abstract concepts.
