Hi, I'm having trouble fetching the XdndTypeList data. It works 100% on my 32-bit Linux laptop, but now trying on my 64-bit Linux desktop at work, the XGetWindowProperty() call under 64-bit linux for the XdndTypeList always returns count = 0, when in fact it should be 8, as my last section of the output shows. I simply forced count = 8, because I knew Nautilus has that many types, and wanted to see if my array of TAtom's actually contains the data - which it does! So it does seem to fetch the data, it just doesn't report it in the variables: actualformat, count, remaining.
Anybody got experience with this and know how I can resolve this problem? type AtomArray = array [0..0] of TAtom; PAtomArray = ^AtomArray; var s: string; actualtype: TAtom; actualformat: Integer; count, remaining, dummy: longword; xdndtypes: PAtomArray; begin ... XGetWindowProperty(fpgApplication.Display, FSrcWinHandle, XdndTypeList, 0, dummy, TBool(False), AnyPropertyType, @actualtype, @actualformat, @count, @remaining, @xdndtypes); s := XGetAtomName(fpgApplication.Display, actualtype); writeln(Format(' ActualType: %s (%d)', [s, ActualType])); writeln(' Actualformat = ', ActualFormat); writeln(' count = ', count); writeln(' remaining = ', remaining); ------------ [ output of my test program ]-------------------- XdndEnter event received! ver(4) check-XdndTypeList(True) data=1E0E816h,67108865,0,0,0 * We will be using XDND v4 protocol * ** We need to fetch XdndTypeList (>3 types) Actual fetch: --------------------- ActualType: ATOM (4) Actualformat = 0 count = 0 <--- ???????????? remaining = 0 Force the count size to be eight: -------------------------- Format #1 = x-special/gnome-icon-list (564) Format #2 = text/uri-list (531) Format #3 = UTF8_STRING (283) Format #4 = COMPOUND_TEXT (463) Format #5 = TEXT (464) Format #6 = STRING (31) Format #7 = text/plain;charset=utf-8 (465) Format #8 = text/plain (466) -------------------------------- -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
