Desktop Services Message Sets Revert(4) NAME Revert - discard any modifications to an entity SYNOPSIS [file] Revert(in type ID); DESCRIPTION The Revert notice asks that any pending, unsaved modifications to a persistent entity (such as a file) be discarded. The ID argument is the identity of the entity to revert. When its type is File, then the ID argument is unset (in other words, has a value of (char *)0), and it refers to the file or directory named in the mes- sage's file attribute. ERRORS The ToolTalk service may return one of the following errors in process- ing the Revert notice: TT_DESKTOP_UNMODIFIED The entity had no pending, unsaved modifications. TT_DESKTOP_ENOENT The file to save/revert does not exist. APPLICATION USAGE The ttdt_file_join(3), function can be used to register for, and help process, the Revert request. The Revert request can be sent with ttdt_file_request(3). Also, ttdt_Revert(3), can send the relevant message and block on the reply.
