+.TH XtCreateSelectionRequest 3Xt "Release 6.6" "X Version 11" "XT FUNCTIONS"
+.SH NAME
+XtCreateSelectionRequest, XtSendSelectionRequest, XtCancelSelectionRequest \- bundle multiple selection conversion requests into a single request using MULTIPLE target
+.SH SYNTAX
+void XtCreateSelectionRequest(\fIrequestor\fP, \fIselection\fP)
+.br
+ Widget \fIrequestor\fP;
+.br
+ Atom \fIselection\fP;
+.LP
+void XtSendSelectionRequest(\fIrequestor\fP, \fIselection\fP, \fItime\fP)
+.br
+ Widget \fIrequestor\fP;
+.br
+ Atom \fIselection\fP;
+.br
+ Time \fItime\fP;
+.LP
+void XtCancelSelectionRequest(\fIrequestor\fP, \fIselection\fP)
+.br
+ Widget \fIrequestor\fP;
+.br
+ Atom \fIselection\fP;
+.SH ARGUMENTS
+.IP \fIrequestor\fP 1i
+Specifies the widget making the request. Must be of class Core or a
+subclass thereof.
+.IP \fIselection\fP 1i
+Specifies the particular selection desired.
+.IP \fItime\fP 1i
+Specifies the timestamp to be used in making the request.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+When
+.ZN XtCreateSelectionRequest
+is called, subsequent calls to
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
+and
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValueIncremental
+with the requestor and selection as specified to
+.ZN XtCreateSelectionRequest
+will be bundled into a single selection conversion request with
+multiple targets. The request is actually initiated by calling
+.ZN XtSendSelectionRequest .
+.LP
+When
+.ZN XtSendSelectionRequest
+is called with a value of \fIrequestor\fP and \fIselection\fP matching
+a previous call to
+.ZN XtCreateSelectionRequest ,
+a selection conversion request is actually sent to the selection owner.
+If a single target request is queued, that request is made. If multiple
+targets are queued they are bundled into a single request with the
+target MULTIPLE using the specified timestamp. As the conversions are
+made, the callbacks associated with each
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
+and
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValueIncremental
+are invoked in turn.
+.LP
+Multi-threaded applications should lock the application context before
+calling
+.ZN XtCreateSelectionRequest
+and release the lock after calling
+.ZN XtSendSelectionRequest
+to ensure that the thread assembling the reqeuest is safe from interference
+by another thread assembling a different request naming the same widget
+and selection.
+.LP
+When
+.ZN XtCancelSelectionRequest
+is called, any requests queued since the last call to
+.ZN XtCreateSelectionRequest
+are cleaned up. Subsequent calls to
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValue ,
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValues ,
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValueIncremental ,
+and
+.ZN XtGetSelectionValuesIncremental
+will not be defered.
