NAME
XtNextEvent − return next event from input queue.
Synopsis
void XtNextEvent(event_return)
XEvent *event_return;
Inputs
None.
Outputs
event_return
Returns the dequeued event structure.
Availability
XtNextEvent() has been superseded by XtAppNextEvent().
Description
XtNextEvent() returns the next event on the input queue. If no events are pending, it flushes the output buffer and blocks. It also dispatches timer and alternate input callbacks and calls any work procedures that have been registered with XtAddWorkProc().
Usage
XtNextEvent() has been superseded by XtAppNextEvent(), which performs the same function on a per-application context basis. XtNextEvent() now calls XtAppNextEvent() passing the default application context created by XtInitialize(). Very few programs need multiple application contexts, and you can continue to use XtNextEvent() if you initialize your application with XtInitialize(). We recommend, however, that you use XtAppInitialize(), XtAppNextEvent(), and the other XtApp*() application context specific functions. See XtAppNextEvent() for more information.
