Modified(4) Desktop Services Message Sets Modified(4)NAMEModified - an entity has been modified
SYNOPSIS
[file] Modified(in type ID);
DESCRIPTION
The Modified notice is sent whenever a tool first modifies a volatile,
non-shared (for example, in-memory) representation of the persistent
state of an entity (such as a file), with the intention of eventually
making that representation persistent.
The ID argument is the identity of the modified entity. When its type
is File, then the ID argument is unset (in other words, has a value of
(char *)0), and it refers to the file or directory named in the mes‐
sage's file attribute.
APPLICATION USAGE
The ttdt_file_join(3), function can be used to register for, and help
process, the Modified request.
The Modified request can be sent with ttdt_file_event(3).
