XInternAtoms(3X) XLIB FUNCTIONS XInternAtoms(3X)NAMEXInternAtoms - returns atoms for specified names
SYNTAX
Status XInternAtoms(display, names, count, only_if_exists,
atoms_return)
Display *display;
char **names;
int count;
Bool only_if_exists;
Atom *atoms_return;
ARGUMENTS
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
names Specifies the array of atom names.
count Specifies the number of .
only_if_exists
Specifies a Boolean value that indicates whether the atom
must be created.
atoms_return
Returns the atoms.
DESCRIPTION
The XInternAtoms function returns the atom identifiers associated with
the specified names. The atoms are stored in the atoms_return array
supplied by the caller. Calling this function is equivalent to calling
XInternAtom for each of the names in turn with the specified value of
only_if_exists, but this function minimizes the number of round trip
protocol exchanges between the client and the X server.
This function returns a nonzero status if atoms are returned for all of
the names; otherwise, it returns zero.
XInternAtoms can generate BadAlloc and BadValue errors.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc The server failed to allocate the requested resource or
server memory.
BadAtom A value for an Atom argument does not name a defined Atom.
BadValue Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted
by the request. Unless a specific range is specified for an
argument, the full range defined by the argument's type is
accepted. Any argument defined as a set of alternatives can
generate this error.
