XSetWMIconName(3)		XLIB FUNCTIONS		     XSetWMIconName(3)



NAME
       XSetWMIconName, XGetWMIconName, XSetIconName, XGetIconName - set or
       read a window's WM_ICON_NAME property

SYNTAX
       void XSetWMIconName(Display *display, Window w, XTextProperty
	      *text_prop);

       Status XGetWMIconName(Display *display, Window w, XTextProperty
	      *text_prop_return);

       int XSetIconName(Display *display, Window w, char *icon_name);

       Status XGetIconName(Display *display, Window w, char
	      **icon_name_return);

ARGUMENTS
       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       icon_name Specifies the icon name, which should be a null-terminated

		 string.

       icon_name_return

		 Returns the window's icon name, which is a null-terminated
		 string.

       text_prop Specifies the XTextProperty structure to be used.

       text_prop_return

       w	 Specifies the window.

DESCRIPTION
       The XSetWMIconName convenience function calls XSetTextProperty to set
       the WM_ICON_NAME property.

       The XGetWMIconName convenience function calls XGetTextProperty to
       obtain the WM_ICON_NAME property.  It returns a nonzero status on suc-
       cess; otherwise, it returns a zero status.

       The XSetIconName function sets the name to be displayed in a window's
       icon.

       XSetIconName can generate BadAlloc and BadWindow errors.

       The XGetIconName function returns the name to be displayed in the spec-
       ified window's icon.  If it succeeds, it returns a nonzero status; oth-
       erwise, if no icon name has been set for the window, it returns zero.
       If you never assigned a name to the window, XGetIconName sets
       icon_name_return to NULL.  If the data returned by the server is in the
       Latin Portable Character Encoding, then the returned string is in the
       Host Portable Character Encoding.  Otherwise, the result is implementa-
       tion-dependent.	When finished with it, a client must free the icon
       name string using XFree.

       XGetIconName can generate a BadWindow error.

PROPERTIES
       WM_ICON_NAME

		 The name to be used in an icon.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadAlloc  The server failed to allocate the requested resource or

		 server memory.

       BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
