Description
XSaveContext() saves data to the context manager database, according to the specified resource and context ID. The context manager is used for associating data with windows within an application. The client must have called XUniqueContext() to get the context ID before calling this function. The meaning of the data is indicated by the context ID, but is completely up to the client. If an entry with the specified resource and context ID already exists, XSaveContext() writes over it with the specified data. The XSaveContext() function returns XCNOMEM (a nonzero error code) if an error has occurred and zero (0) otherwise. For more information, see the description of the context manager in Volume One, Chapter 13, Other Programming Techniques.
