DESCRIPTIONXmClipboardInquireCount returns the number of data item formats avail‐
able for the data item in the clipboard. This function also returns the
maximum name-length for all formats in which the data item is stored.
display Specifies a pointer to the Display structure that was
returned in a previous call to XOpenDisplay or XtDisplay.
window Specifies the window ID of a widget that relates the applica‐
tion window to the clipboard. The widget's window ID can be
obtained through XtWindow. The same application instance
should pass the same window ID to each of the clipboard func‐
tions that it calls.
count Returns the number of data item formats available for the
data item in the clipboard. If no formats are available, this
argument equals 0 (zero). The count includes the formats that
were passed by name.
max_format_name_length
Specifies the maximum length of all format names for the data
item in the clipboard.
RETURN
XmClipboardSuccess
The function was successful.
XmClipboardLocked
The function failed because the clipboard was locked by
another application. The application can continue to call the
function again with the same parameters until the lock goes
away. This gives the application the opportunity to ask if
the user wants to keep trying or to give up on the operation.
XmClipboardNoData
The function could not find data on the clipboard correspond‐
ing to the format requested. This could occur because the
clipboard is empty; there is data on the clipboard, but not
in the requested format; or the data in the requested format
was passed by name and is no longer available.
