XSaveContext(3X11)		XLIB FUNCTIONS		   XSaveContext(3X11)



NAME
       XSaveContext, XFindContext, XDeleteContext, XUniqueContext - associa-
       tive look-up routines

SYNTAX
       int XSaveContext(Display *display, XID rid, XContext context, XPointer
	      data);

       int XFindContext(Display *display, XID rid, XContext context, XPointer
	      *data_return);

       int XDeleteContext(Display *display, XID rid, XContext context);

       XContext XUniqueContext(void);

ARGUMENTS
       context	 Specifies the context type to which the data belongs.

       data	 Specifies the data to be associated with the window and
		 type.

       data_return
		 Returns the data.

       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       rid	 Specifies the resource ID with which the data is associated.

DESCRIPTION
       If an entry with the specified resource ID and type already exists,
       XSaveContext overrides it with the specified context.  The XSaveCon-
       text function returns a nonzero error code if an error has occurred
       and zero otherwise.  Possible errors are XCNOMEM (out of memory).

       Because it is a return value, the data is a pointer.  The XFindContext
       function returns a nonzero error code if an error has occurred and
       zero otherwise.	Possible errors are XCNOENT (context-not-found).

       The XDeleteContext function deletes the entry for the given resource
       ID and type from the data structure.  This function returns the same
       error codes that XFindContext returns if called with the same argu-
       ments.  XDeleteContext does not free the data whose address was saved.

       The XUniqueContext function creates a unique context type that may be
       used in subsequent calls to XSaveContext.
