_________________________________________________________________ NAME Tk_CreateWindow, Tk_CreateWindowFromPath, Tk_DestroyWindow, Tk_MakeWindowExist - create or delete window SYNOPSIS #include <tk.h> Tk_Window Tk_CreateWindow(interp, parent, name, topLevScreen) Tk_Window Tk_CreateWindowFromPath(interp, tkwin, pathName, topLevScreen) Tk_DestroyWindow(tkwin) Tk_MakeWindowExist(tkwin) ARGUMENTS Tcl_Interp *interp (out) Tcl interpreter to use for error report- ing. If no error occurs, then *interp isn't modified. Tk_Window parent (in) Token for the window that is to serve as the logical parent of the new window. char *name (in) Name to use for this window. Must be unique among all children of the same parent. char *topLevScreen (in) Has same format as screenName. If NULL, then new window is created as an inter- nal window. If non- NULL, new window is created as a top- level window on screen topLevScreen. If topLevScreen is an empty string (``'') then new window is created as top-level window of parent's screen. Tk_Window tkwin (in) Token for window. char *pathName (in) Name of new window, specified as path name within applica- tion (e.g. .a.b.c). _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION The procedures Tk_CreateWindow and Tk_CreateWindowFromPath | are used to create new windows for use in Tk-based applica- | tions. Each of the procedures returns a token that can be | used to manipulate the window in other calls to the Tk | library. If the window couldn't be created successfully, | then NULL is returned and interp->result is modified to hold | an error message. | Tk supports two different kinds of windows: internal win- | dows and top-level windows. An internal window is an inte- rior window of a Tk application, such as a scrollbar or menu bar or button. A top-level window is one that is created as a child of a screen's root window, rather than as an inte- rior window, but which is logically part of some existing main window. Examples of top-level windows are pop-up menus and dialog boxes. New windows may be created by calling Tk_CreateWindow. If the topLevScreen argument is NULL, then the new window will be an internal window. If topLevScreen is non-NULL, then the new window will be a top-level window: topLevScreen indicates the name of a screen and the new window will be created as a child of the root window of topLevScreen. In either case Tk will consider the new window to be the logi- cal child of parent: the new window's path name will reflect this fact, options may be specified for the new win- dow under this assumption, and so on. The only difference is that new X window for a top-level window will not be a child of parent's X window. For example, a pull-down menu's parent would be the button-like window used to invoke it, which would in turn be a child of the menu bar window. A dialog box might have the application's main window as its parent. Tk_CreateWindowFromPath offers an alternate way of specify- ing new windows. In Tk_CreateWindowFromPath the new window is specified with a token for any window in the target application (tkwin), plus a path name for the new window. It produces the same effect as Tk_CreateWindow and allows both top-level and internal windows to be created, depending on the value of topLevScreen. In calls to Tk_CreateWindowFromPath, as in calls to Tk_CreateWindow, the parent of the new window must exist at the time of the call, but the new window must not already exist. The window creation procedures don't actually issue the com- mand to X to create a window. Instead, they create a local data structure associated with the window and defer the creation of the X window. The window will actually be created by the first call to Tk_MapWindow. Deferred window creation allows various aspects of the window (such as its size, background color, etc.) to be modified after its crea- tion without incurring any overhead in the X server. When the window is finally mapped all of the window attributes can be set while creating the window. The value returned by a window-creation procedure is not the X token for the window (it can't be, since X hasn't been asked to create the window yet). Instead, it is a token for Tk's local data structure for the window. Most of the Tk library procedures take Tk_Window tokens, rather than X identifiers. The actual X window identifier can be retrieved from the local data structure using the Tk_WindowId macro; see the manual entry for Tk_WindowId for details. Tk_DestroyWindow deletes a window and all the data struc- tures associated with it, including any event handlers created with Tk_CreateEventHandler. In addition, Tk_DestroyWindow will delete any children of tkwin recur- sively (where children are defined in the Tk sense, consist- ing of all windows that were created with the given window as parent). If tkwin is an internal window, then event handlers interested in destroy events are invoked immedi- ately. If tkwin is a top-level or main window, then the event handlers will be invoked later, after X has seen the request and returned an event for it. If a window has been created but hasn't been mapped, so no X window exists, it is possible to force the creation of the X window by calling Tk_MakeWindowExist. This procedure issues the X commands to instantiate the window given by tkwin. KEYWORDS create, deferred creation, destroy, display, internal win- dow, screen, top-level window, window
