I have an application with a main window and some another windows (not popups but it does not matter as the main window is the XV_OWNER of the secondary ones). I have a button in one of the secondary window which is supposed to do a SAVE of some internal data structure in a file and this operation may take a long time. I managed to recover the full hierarchy of windows and set each of the frames I found to a busy state but if I click on any item in my interface while all frames are in busy=true state then all my events are still buffered and I don't wnat this. Second, I tried to modify the WIN_X_EVENT_MASK of the frames I set to busy but it does not prevent events to occur within let's say panels contained by those frames. I don't want to store a table of win/frame/panels with their X_EVENT_MASKS and restore this list after the SAVE is completed. Is there some XView /XLib functionality that I missed ? Thanks for any answer/pointer Olivier -- +---------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ |Olivier BOURDON | Address : SUN MICROSYSTEMS | |E-Mail : obourdon@France.Sun.COM | International Center for| |Tel : +33 76 41 42 19 | Network Computing | |Fax : +33 76 41 42 41 | 32 av du Vieux Chene | | | 38 240 Meylan Zirst | |member of OSI development team | FRANCE | +---------------------------------+-----------------------------------+
