DESCRIPTION

ncurses provides functions returning properties of a WINDOW structure, allowing it to be “opaque” if the application defines the NCURSES_OPAQUE preprocessor symbol. Opacity in this sense means that the members of struct data types are not directly accessible (for instance, through “.” or “->” operators), but instead must be queried and/or set via library functions. Advantages of opacity include greater abstraction and improved management of concurrent accesses to data structures, keeping object states coherent.

is_cleared: returns the value set by clearok(3X).
is_idcok: returns the value set by idcok(3X).
is_idlok: returns the value set by idlok(3X).
is_immedok: returns the value set by immedok(3X).
is_keypad: returns the value set by keypad(3X).
is_leaveok: returns the value set by leaveok(3X).
is_nodelay: returns the value set by nodelay(3X).
is_notimeout: returns the value set by notimeout(3X).
is_pad: returns TRUE if the window is a pad; that is, it was created by newpad(3X).
is_scrollok: returns the value set by scrollok(3X).
is_subwin: returns TRUE if the window is a subwindow, that is, it was created by subwin(3X) or derwin(3X).
is_syncok: returns the value set by syncok(3X).
wgetdelay: returns the delay timeout set by wtimeout(3X).
wgetparent: returns the parent WINDOW pointer for subwindows, or NULL for windows having no parent.
wgetscrreg: stores the the top and bottom rows for the scrolling margin set by wsetscrreg(3X) in the corresponding arguments, returning ERR upon failure and OK upon successful completion.

RETURN VALUE

These functions return TRUE or FALSE except as noted.

NOTES

ncurses provides both a C function and a preprocessor macro for each function documented in this page.

PORTABILITY

These routines are specific to ncurses. They were not supported on Version 7, BSD or System V implementations. It is recommended that any code depending on ncurses extensions be conditioned using NCURSES_VERSION.
