XtAppSetExitFlag(3)

✨ XtAppSetExitFlag(3) — XT FUNCTIONS ✨

okay bestie, we're in the XtAppSetExitFlag(3) page of the X Toolkit Intrinsics manual and it's giving thread support functions 💖 lowkey the shortest little page ever but it's so important, iykyk.

🌸 NAME 🌸

XtAppSetExitFlag, XtAppGetExitFlag — thread support functions

like yes, that's the whole name section, they're a lil duo 🫶 one sets, one gets, iconic behavior honestly.

---

🎀 SYNTAX 🎀

first things first, you gotta pull in the header or none of this works:

#include <X11/Intrinsic.h>

then, the two functions, fr fr:

void XtAppSetExitFlag(XtAppContext app_context);

Boolean XtAppGetExitFlag(XtAppContext app_context);

notice the first one returns void (it's a do-er not a teller 💅) and the second one hands you back a Boolean because it's the one with the gossip.

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• app_context — Specifies the application context. that's it. that's the whole argument list. both functions take the exact same one, and it's just which app context are we talking about — your main character, your app_context 👑

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so here's the tea ☕

To indicate that an application context should exit, use XtAppSetExitFlag. you're basically tapping it on the shoulder like "bestie... we're done here, wrap it up" 🎀

To test the exit status of an application context, use XtAppGetExitFlag. this one's the vibe check — you ask it "are we exiting or not?" and it tells you 🌈

set, then get. that's the whole loop. no cap.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

if you wanna go deeper (and you should, queen), go read:

• X Toolkit Intrinsics - C Language Interface
• Xlib - C Language X Interface

and that's the page!! 💖 this was X Version 11, from libXt 1.3.1 — no dates on this one so we're just gonna say it dropped whenever libXt 1.3.1 said it did ✨ mwah, go set that exit flag, bestie 💅🌟
