.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
function requests the value of the selection that has been converted to
the target type.
The specified callback will be called some time after
.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
is called;
in fact, it may be called before or after
.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
returns.
.LP
The
.ZN XtGetSelectionValues
function is similar to
.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
except that it takes a list of target types and a list of client data
and obtains the current value of the selection converted to each of the targets.
The effect is as if each target were specified in a separate call to
.ZN XtGetSelectionValue .
The callback is called once with the corresponding client data for each target.
.ZN XtGetSelectionValues
does guarantee that all the conversions will use the same selection value
becaues the ownership of the selection cannot change in the middle of the list,
as would be when calling
.ZN XtGetSelectionValue
repeatedly.
