XtBuildEventMask(3)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is the XtBuildEventMask(3) page from the XT FUNCTIONS section — and it's literally all about retrieving a widget's event mask. That's the whole name, periodt. 💅

🌸 SYNTAX 🌸

#include <X11/Intrinsic.h>

EventMask XtBuildEventMask(Widget w);

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• w — Specifies the widget. Like, the one and only widget you're asking about, bestie. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So XtBuildEventMask returns the event mask that is the logical OR of all event masks for event handlers registered on the widget with XtAddEventHandler, plus all event translations — including accelerators — installed on the widget. It's the exact same event mask that gets stored into the XSetWindowAttributes structure by XtRealizeWidget, and it's the one sent to the server when event handlers and translations are installed or removed on the realized widget. No cap, that's the vibe. ✨

X Version 11, libXt 1.3.1 — and yeah, that's the footer energy, bestie. The date? The footer didn't spill one, so just imagine me blowing you a kiss with it. 💖🫶
