Raise(special file)

NAME
Raise — raise a tool's window(s) to the front

SYNOPSIS

Raise([in messageID commission]);

DESCRIPTION

The Raise request raises the window(s) associated with the handling procid. If any optional arguments are present, then it raises only the indicated window(s).

The commission argument is the ID of the message, if any, that resulted in the creation of the window(s) that should be raised.

APPLICATION USAGE

The ttdt_session_join(3), and ttdt_message_accept(3), functions can be used by Xt applications to register for, and transparently process, the Raise request.

EXAMPLES

The Raise request can be sent as in the following example:

Tt_message msg = tttk_message_create(0, TT_REQUEST, TT_SESSION,
                        the_recipient_procid, TTDT_RAISE,
                        my_callback);
tt_message_send(msg);

WARNINGS

Raise can also be sent as a multicast notice, as an edict to all tools in the scope of the message. The consequences of doing so can be severe and unexpected.
