XMCONTAINERPASTELINK(3)

✨ XmContainerPasteLink ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because this is a library call from the XmContainer fam and it is so useful 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

XmContainerPasteLink — the Container widget function that inserts links from the clipboard 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <Xm/Container.h>
Boolean XmContainerPasteLink(
Widget container);

no cap, that's the whole signature. one argument. she's simple, she's iconic 👑

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so basically? XmContainerPasteLink requests a data transfer from the clipboard selection over to the Container. that's her whole job. she's the girl who asks, not the girl who does 😌

the way she works: she calls the widget's XmNdestinationCallback procedures, and when she does, she's set the selection member of the XmDestinationCallbackStruct to CLIPBOARD, and the operation member to XmLINK. periodt.

🚨 IMPORTANT bestie, do not skip this: the Container widget itself performs no transfers. literally none. zero. it's giving "i just made the intro, you take it from here." the XmNdestinationCallback procedures are the ones responsible for inserting the link to the clipboard selection and for taking any related actions. so if nothing shows up, it's not her fault, it's your callback's moment to shine 💀

• container — Specifies the Container widget ID. that's it, that's the vibe, hand her the widget and let her cook 🍓

if you want the complete definition of Container and all her associated resources, go read XmContainer(3). she's the main character of this whole universe, fr fr 🌈

---

🎀 RETURN 🎀

• returns False if no data transfer takes place 😭
• otherwise, she returns True ✨

so yeah, check the return value, bestie. don't just assume she ate. 🙈
