ttdt_Get_Modified(3)

NAME
     ttdt_Get_Modified - ask if any ToolTalk client has changes pending on a
     file

SYNOPSIS
     #include <Tt/tttk.h>
     int ttdt_Get_Modified(Tt_message context,
                           const char *pathname,
                           Tt_scope the_scope,
                           XtAppContext app2run,
                           int ms_timeout);

DESCRIPTION
     The ttdt_Get_Modified() function sends a Get_Modified request in the
     scope the_scope and waits for the reply.  A Get_Modified request asks if
     any ToolTalk client has changes pending on pathname that it intends to
     make persistent.

     The context argument describes the environment to use.  If context is not
     zero, messages created by ttdt_Get_Modified() inherit from context all
     contexts whose slotname begins with the characters ENV_.  That is, the
     environment described in context is propagated to messages created by
     ttdt_Get_Modified().

     The pathname argument is a pointer to a pathname on which the client is
     operating.

     The the_scope argument identifies the scope of the request.  If the_scope
     is TT_SCOPE_NONE, ttdt_Get_Modified() tries TT_BOTH, and falls back to
     TT_FILE_IN_SESSION if, for example, the ToolTalk database server is not
     installed on the file server that owns pathname.

     The ttdt_Get_Modified() function passes app2run and ms_timeout to
     tttk_block_while(3), blocking on the reply to the Get_Modified request it
     sends.

RETURN VALUE
     Upon successful completion, the ttdt_Get_Modified() function returns
     non-zero if the Get_Modified request receives an affirmative reply within
     ms_timeout milliseconds; otherwise, it returns zero.
