GDEACTIVATE_WS(3NCARG)

πŸ“¦ version 6.6.2, in epel 9, fedora 43, fedora 44

✨ NAME ✨

gdeactivate_ws (aka Deactivate workstation) β€” bestie, it deactivates a workstation. That's it, that's the job πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void gdeactivate_ws(Gint ws_id);

πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

  • ws_id (Input) β€” a number that IDs the workstation you're about to deactivate. Heads up though: this ws_id has to be the exact same one you used in some earlier gactivate_ws call. Like, it needs to match. No cap. 🫢

πŸ’– USAGE πŸ’–

So what actually happens? The workstation you named gets removed from the set of active workstations. And here's the tea β€” GKS output primitives are not sent to workstations that aren't active. Not active = not getting the goods. Periodt. πŸ’€


πŸ”₯ ACCESS πŸ”₯

Wanna actually use the GKS C-binding routines? Load up the ncarg_gks and ncarg_c libraries. That's the vibe check you gotta pass ✨
