DESCRIPTION
The function replaces the WM_PROTOCOLS property on the specified window
with the list of atoms specified by the protocols argument. If the
property does not already exist, sets the WM_PROTOCOLS property on the
specified window to the list of atoms specified by the protocols argu‐
ment. The property is stored with a type of ATOM and a format of 32.
If it cannot intern the WM_PROTOCOLS atom, returns a zero status. Oth‐
erwise, it returns a nonzero status.
can generate and errors.
The function returns the list of atoms stored in the WM_PROTOCOLS prop‐
erty on the specified window. These atoms describe window manager pro‐
tocols in which the owner of this window is willing to participate. If
the property exists, is of type ATOM, is of format 32, and the atom
WM_PROTOCOLS can be interned, sets the protocols_return argument to a
list of atoms, sets the count_return argument to the number of elements
in the list, and returns a nonzero status. Otherwise, it sets neither
of the return arguments and returns a zero status. To release the list
of atoms, use
can generate a error.
PROPERTIES
WM_PROTOCOLS
List of atoms that identify the communications protocols
between the client and window manager in which the client is
willing to participate.
DIAGNOSTICS
The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory.
A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
